Look out, Aaron Murray! Mark Richt is back on Twitter.
Guess who finally decided it was time to get back in the Twitter saddle again? Georgia head football coach Mark Richt, who hasn't tweeted since June 19, 2009.

Mark Richt and Paul Johnson don’t have time for your social media crap
Rival coaches Mark Richt of Georgia and Paul Johnson of Georgia Tech both agree on one thing. They don’t need social media. They even claim to recognize the importance of it but do not have Twitter or Facebook accounts.
