Some recruiting loose ends

The good times are rolling at Georgia Tech, huh?

In the driver’s seat in the Coastal division, another big recruit in the fold, hoops season about to start with the Jackets as the only team in the coaches pool that had a losing record last season, and Durant Brooks has made the semifinals for a national award. Not bad

Brooks, by the way, is on scholarship. I asked Gailey the other day.

On recruiting, there will be stories in the next couple weeks or so about kids who like Tech, or are considering Tech, or are leaning toward Tech, etc.

The Jackets have three recruits far above all others on their radar now: S Morgan Burnett, S-LB Lorenzo Edwards, and DE Jason Peters.

There’s a story out there about a WR who favors Tech, but the Jackets have greater depth issues, or will in the next year or two, at S. Coaches really, really want to get either Burnett or Edwards, who may translate to linebacker at the next level. He’s 6-2, and 220 or so, and likely to grow some more. He’d be a very big safety in a scheme that favors guys that can really move in the secondary (he can).

Gonna be cold tomorrow night in Raleigh, folks.
