Friday, January 26th, 2018
Herff Jones, an achievement division of Varsity Brands and the leading provider of graduation and educational products and services, is pleased to announce it signed a contract with the University of Georgia to produce its new SEC Championship ring, which it earned by defeating Auburn in the final game on Dec. 2, 2017. With input from UGA coaches and players, Herff Jones created the official design and will manufacture and later present the ring to the team per the terms of the agreement.
Jeff Drees, president of Herff Jones, added, "It is an honor to be named the official designer of the University of Georgia's SEC Championship ring. Our team always looks forward to creating products that contain special meaning, and we are thrilled about this partnership as well as the opportunity it brings to help the Bulldog players enjoy and commemorate their achievement."
The top of each champ ring features a red UGA logo with a CZ encrusted inlay. One side of each ring showcases player names and an image of the Bulldog mascot. The other side of the ring presents a gold SEC logo and the date of the 2017 championship game.
Herff Jones representatives presented the final ring design to the Bulldog team at a special event on Jan. 11.
