"University of Georgia President Michael F. Adams will discuss the status of the search for the next UGA director of athletics during a news conference today (Aug. 13) at 4 p.m."

Meanwhile, the UGA Athletic Board has called a special meeting for 3 p.m.

It's expected that Greg McGarity will be approved as the new A.D. at the 3 p.m. meeting, then introduced at 4 p.m.
