Georgia running back Todd Gurley has missed the last two games while the university and NCAA investigate whether he accepted money for signing memorabilia.
And while he waits for his future as a Bulldog to be determined, he’s making a fashion statement.
Oh nothing, just Todd Gurley wearing a #FreeGurley t-shirt. http://ift.tt/1sKVbZB

The #FreeGurley movement has swept the Georgia campus and while Gurley can’t make money off his name, some enterprising students are.
Peyton Bennett, a student at Georgia, printed up several T-shirts with the phrase “#FreeGurl3y” and is selling them for $15 each. He told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution he sold 100 in the first three days and that business has been booming as Gurley’s eligibility issues continue.
Obviously, Bennett’s shirts are different from the one Gurley is wearing, but that just shows there are many people making a profit off of Gurley’s name while he can’t.
