The Georgia football team has elected to not visit the White House to celebrate the program’s second College Football Playoff national championship.
The White House extended an invitation for the Bulldogs to visit Washington, D.C., on June 12. However, a spokesman from Georgia’s athletic department wrote in a statement that the date listed for the program to attend the White House was “not feasible” in consideration of the schedule for its student athletes.
“Unfortunately, the date suggested is not feasible given the student-athlete calendar and time of the year,” the statement read. “However, we are appreciative of the invitation and look forward to other opportunities for Georgia teams moving forward.”
