There is sad news out of the college football world. A former University of Georgia mascot, Uga X — better known to many as “Que” — has died. He was 10 years old.
The University of Georgia announced on Tuesday that Que crossed over the Rainbow Bridge in his sleep. He began his time with the Bulldogs on November 21, 2015, during halftime at a Georgia-Georgia Southern matchup.
It was a night game, and the team’s band asked fans to “light up” Stanford Stadium as the fourth quarter approached. Georgia went on to win the game, and the rest is history.
During his tenure, Que was there through two SEC titles, two national championships and a host of bowl games. He retired in 2022 with a 91-18 record, becoming the most decorated Georgia Bulldog mascot ever.
Dave Willock, the father of Devin Willock who was tragically killed in a car crash following a parade celebrating the Georgia Bulldogs second straight national championship, has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against University System of Georgia seeking $2 million in damages, Yahoo Sports reported.
On April 11, attorneys representing Dave Willock sent a legal notice to the board of regents notifying them of the pending lawsuit. According to Georgia’s law, state agencies can only be sued for a maximum of $2 Million.

Reportedly, Devin Willock was not wearing a seatbelt while seated behind LeCroy in the backse
To be clear, UGA and [University of Georgia Athletic Association] agents and employees negligently entrusted a vehicle to LeCroy,” the attorneys wrote in the legal notice. “Like wise, UGA and UGAAA agents and employees negligently hired, supervised, trained, and retained LeCroy.”
