Citing dislike for the big city, Tech loses commitment
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Categories
It was four steps forward and one step backward for Georgia Tech’s Class of 2009 recruiting class this week.
After adding four new commitments over the weekend, the Jackets have learned that John Drew of Northside-Columbus no longer plans to play college football at Tech.
Northside coach Paul Cates confirmed Drew’s decision to de-commit then refused further comment.
Messages left at Drew’s residence in Columbus were not returned.
The 6-foot-1, 300-pound lineman may now be leaning toward Duke.
“I just had a change of heart,” Drew told DevilsIllustrated. “I thought I made my choice a little too early and I didn’t give everybody a fair chance.
“Plus, I really didn’t like the location of Atlanta. It’s real big and a lot of stuff can happen there. I just don’t want to be in a place that’s huge. Academics will be a big part of my decision.”
In addition to the Blue Devils, Drew also has scholarship offers from Mississippi State and Vanderbilt.
He is scheduled to attend camp at Duke this weekend.

This is hilarious, seriously the kid sounds like a pansy. Scared of being in a city and such? What did you think when you committed? GT didn’t just suddenly appear in ATL. You also mention in an article I read that you tried to make it work but couldnt, and how was that? He is living in Columbus and never on campus or in ATL so how does he say he tried to make it work, its not like hes already enrolled.This kid has some issues if hes now looking at going to Duke instead, I guess a half empty Wallace Wade Stadium is a more comfortable setting for the kid who doesn’t like big places. Guarantee you the kid is overrated anyways if hes now looking at Duke.
GO DAWGS!~

I don’t blame the kid. I used to live at Tech and had my truck stolen twice in less than six months. You ever take a step off campus and there is no telling what can happen to you with the bad surrounding area, and this is coming from someone from Atlanta and feels kind of comfortable. Plus, who wants to deal with the bullcrap traffic? As soon as school is over, I’m getting away from the traffic and crime.

So he has made a decision to decommit. These things happen. He’s an 18 year old kid. Better now than later and good luck to the young man. Who knows. He might yet decide to come back to Tech.

My fellow dawg fan,
The difference is about 30,000. I dislike Tech just like you do but while Tech’s average attendance is around 50,000; Dukes best attendance might be 20,000. Facts are facts no matter how much we dislike a school. Nobody in their right mind chooses Duke.

Best of luck to the young man.
These kids put pressure on themselves to make decisions before they are ready. They see other kids committing and feel that maybe they need to hurry up.
I say take your time, be sure of the decision, pull the trigger!
If he did not feel Tech was a good fit for him - decommit now - find the right fit - and go enjoy your career!
I would rather he decommit now - than on signing day like that TE did to Georgia. That kid screwed GA over - not only did UGAy not pick up a tight end - but Buford’s Omar Hunter - was begging for a scholarship to attend UGA - and committed to Florida - faxing his paperwork in - and then to find out that the TE a few hours later.

Certainly there’s lots of crime in the ATL, but not so much on campus at GTech. There are sections of Columbus you want to stay away from too, just as in any town. Athens is different tho! In Athens, all the thugs are on the football team. Its safer downtown.

He should go to UGA where he can get arrested for DUI, disorderly conduct and/or possession, then play a season for the Athens Correctional inmates team, also known as a UGA “redshirt”. By the way, the crime levels at GT dropped significantly when the Techwood Homes were wiped clean for the 96 Olympics. Aside from Reuben Houston and Joe Hamilton, crime is practically non-existent…

Yes, a lot could happen in Atlanta…you could go to a great school, you could eat at some great restaurants, you see some awesome sights, you could go to some great sporting events or concerts, you could commit to play college football for a team that is trying to build into something note-worthy and then freaking DE-COMMIT!! Don’t worry, they hit softer at Duke practices.
Oh yeah, and in all seriousness, pick Vandy!

Wow!! Lots of “I could care less about Tech” GA fans posting about a kid who has chosen small-town life & acedemics over Tech & atheletics.
Nice to see the ‘concern’ from the GA faithful. It appears their fear is growing. In the beginning when PJ was hired you’d only see a few GA posts. Now there are quite a few. Appears to me they have taken the time to ‘google’ Paul Johnson, and have have read what Tech is soon going to do to their beloved Dogs.

Hope all works out for Drew that said, hopefully Johnson and Co. will learn from this. First kids who want to be at Tech and it’s education are the ones. If we totally recruit Georgia we will hit smaller towns and sometimes the Big City is just too much. However, we should be able to recruit Ga. Well and Nationally well. There are plenty of people that want to play for Johnson and Tech and it probably will get even better once people see the product on the field. Just think we have 9 commits and a well of others who are interested. That is good recruiting.

As a Tech alumni and Tech Fund season ticket holder, I am sad to see Drew not coming to the ATL. But, let’s everybody allow the young man to make his schooling decisions without any inference of a derogatory remark toward him as he is an intelligent teenager trying to make the best decision for his life. I, and I am sure CPJ and the staff, are extremely grateful that this young gentleman had the courtesy to notify the school in June 08 that he will not be attending GT in August of 09. We now have much time to fill this gap if we so choose. Mr. Drew, if you are reading this boards, which I hope your are not given the childish comments that appear, good luck to you.

Someone got into this kids head who knows just about as much as he does. Everyone knows a college campus is a city within a city. Va Tech is not in a city and look what happened there. Atlanta has always led the South and to be a part of it is an honor and a privledge because you can be proud of its history. All roads in the South lead to Atlanta. business knows that, MLK knew that, and anyone else with a sense of history knows that. He may change his mind again.

Any young man that is to scared to come to school at GT because of it’s location needs to turn loose of his mothers teet and grow up. What’s next? Oh my gosh he can’t play this week because he was scared to ride the bus, or scared to fly to a game. Lord I hate to think about what will happen when his big mean ole opponent hits him in a game.

This story and the anti-ATL posts are so ignorant they’re funny. I went to GT and live in Durham. (UGA fans - that’s the city in NC where you find Duke.) So you want to get away from what? Slums, crime, oh - I saw that ATL is mismanaged in one of these posts. Um, Durham might not be the place you want to pick. If the story is true, he is apparently picking one school/city he doesn’t know well for another. I understand he’s an 18 year old kid and making his mistakes in public - the rest of us get to make ours more quietly. But I promise you this: he won’t be happy with his change of heart either. Not only is the crime/ghetto aspect as bad, but they actually have port-a-johns INSIDE the stadium at Wallace Wade. Not really sure how he’s trading up. No hard feelings - sounds like GT was not the place for him. But there are better alternatives than Duke…

Anybody who says Atlanta, and specifically GT, is in the ghetto hasn’t been to midtown in about 10 years.

And to all you dawg fans, if Atlanta is so terrible and Athens is so great, why don’t you stop moving down here after graduation! Atlanta would be much better off without you mutts.
And to say Tech doesn’t have women is a very old stereotype that needs to die. It’s like saying UGA only has inbred rednecks, it’s just not true anymore. And if you can’t find a Tech girl, try your luck in midtown, virginia highlands, buckhead, decatur, georgia state, agnes scott, kennesaw state, or emory.

I don’t understand how Tech fans can get on these blogs and really say that UGA sucks. Georgia plays in the SEC and might I add the toughest conference by far in the NCAA, and competes evey year. GT plays in the ACC which is mediocre at best and still does not challenege. I guess I should add 0-7 the past 7 years against UGA too. But really UGA sucks. Please refrain from saying anything about UGA sucking because there is no comparison between GT and UGA. If GT played in the SEC they would be the team at the bottom year in and year out. Their talent level is nowhere near what is on any SEC team. Stick to basketball and baseball GT people. Oh I just remembered. Didn’t UGA win the SEC Championship in basketball and make it to the NCAA tournament. Oh and I do believe UGA is about to be in the CWS Championship. Any more to say GT fans???????????????

The University of Georgia certainly shouldn’t be arrogant.
But they have actually won more than national championship in football coming through with five. Unfortunately, it seems like the way that champions were selected earlier on in the 1900’s could raise some questions on legitimacy. But the same goes for Georgia Tech since two of their championship years date 1917 and 1928. UGA has at least two, one in 1942 and 1980.
UGA has also been much more consistent in the Mark Richt era. Georgia Tech has not won it’s conference since ‘98. Tech also has not won a BCS bowl and the ACC as a whole is 1-9 in the BCS. (There’s also the pesky 7 wins in a row UGA has against Georgia Tech.)

Nick,
As much as I hate to admit it, your points are valid. There is one blogger here whose best point is “UGA Sux”. Lame.
Your right - UGA owns GT these days. The difference is - there are so many more obnoxious UGA fans that never went to school there or at the local community college. There are a lot more UGA fans saying GT Sux than vice versa. It’s easy to be a UGA fan right now, but the worm will turn. Richt will eventually be in Miami or Tallahassee, and you’ll have another Ray Goff or Jim Donnan. Enjoy it while the bandwagon’s full.

Best of luck to the man. It’s a tough decision, and I can understand why he did it. Many, many people are worried about the life in a big city.
That does make me wonder, though, how many times he’s been on campus. Sure, it’s in Atlanta, but it’s still pretty secluded. Crime on campus, especially on west where most athletes live, is pretty darned infrequent. If you are unfortunate enough to have your truck stolen, much less twice, you’re definitely not the norm. Moreover, most crimes are theft, and also usually attributed to someone being careless with their stuff.
I might add that leaving campus is not a necessity. I drive about once a week, if that. I walk to Publix and Mac’s when I need supplies to keep on living, and that’s about the extent of it. Tech can have a small-town feel if you want it to.
Anyway, best of luck to him, but you won’t see wistful tears in my eyes.

I admit, UGA has a great football program, and UGA doesn’t suck. The fans do. Probably the worst fans I’ve ever met. They have nothing else to talk about other than football. Really? Do you have nothing else to do over there?
So what, our football program doesn’t compare anywhere near yours. At least everyone has a lot of other things going for them.

What a suprprise that a Tech blog is full of pro-UGA posts. Really, nobody cares about your opinion. As for Duke being so superior in academics to Tech, is a crock. They are both great academic institutions, with their focus in different fields of study. Plus Duke is private. Tech is one of the top public schools in the nation.
Also, I’m glad all of the UGA fans lives completely revolve around athletic teams, that you never played for, at a school most of you didn’t attend.
Finally, as for big bad, thug life, ghetto, Atlanta; take a look around. Tech is not in a horribly dangerous area, and Atlanta is one of the most thriving cities in America. Find me a city without crime anywhere in this country, I’ll meet you there.

Earth to Son of Sam! Pull your head out of your unwiped butt. FSU already hired Bowden’s successor. Richt will retire at UGA. Besides, moron. Check the record. Even Ray Goff owned your sorry football team. No matter who coaches at UGA Tech will still have to bend over every November. UGA is a destination job for top coaches now. Tech is, well, the place coaches go to ruin their careers. You will always suck hind t** in this state.

Hey, im a dawg fan and I think some of you guys might get owned for talking bad about him. Even though Drew will probably visit Duke, UGA was recruiting him pretty hard until he committed to Tech. His father has a close relationship to Coach Garner so they may jump back on him and offer. I think we are looking for two DT’s so he may just get the offer. I just hope most don’t retract their statements if the Dawgs do decide to jump back on him and recruit him.

Whoever says the area around GT is a ghetto obviously hasn’t been there since Atlantic Station was built. I live in West Midtown and see the area daily. It’s the one area of Atlanta that is still growing. Sembler is about to put in a big project at 14th at Northside.

This kid is an idiot, who has no balls whatsoever. Yes GA tech is surronded by some not so safe areas, but all he has to do is stay out of those not so safe areas. GA Tech Police usually do a good job of keeping the riff raff on the westside of Northside Dr. All he has to do is go east of campus towards midtown and he’s fine. Now if he goes west of campus to buy drugs like so many of them do, then he deserves to get robbed. But its not going to matter, because obviously this kid has no balls whatsoever. But wait last time I checked Durham, NC aint the safest place in the world either. Its not Atlanta, but still Durham has some ghetto parts to.

I would like to know if Duke “enriched” the offer somehow to dissuade a Georgia boy from choosing to leave the state? I personally would like to see what football coach will coddle this little boy with comments like he made. The things this boy thinks he will be avoiding by not living in Atlanta will be the very things he will have to deal with wherever he goes. He could always major in home economics or basket-weaving.

Son of Sam,
I have actually followed UGA since I can remember. My first ever sporting event was to a UGA-Ole Miss game back in the early 80’s that my parents took me too. There is no bandwagon riding for me. I have been with them for the good times and bad times. Why does anyone who is a fan of UGA these days have to be on the bandwagon. Has it ever crossed your mind that these individuals may have grown up watching them and following them?

Oh yeah, you don’t have to be in a real big city to get in trouble, i.e., public drunk, drunk driving, carrying a concealed weapon, assault on a police officer, etc. These all happended near the UGA campus, and Athens is not a large city.Hehehehe.

Drew’s wording could’ve been better. One of the unspoken reasons for attending Duke is that his brother attends NC Central.
Don’t worry about the “softness”. While that may have been true under Coach Roof, it’s not the case now that Cutcliffe and more specifically (Coach Hobby) have arrived.

Can understand that Tech may be upset. Losing Renfree, Butler, and now Drew to a school like Duke gets in your craw.
The other unspoken reason for this move is that Drew’s brother plays for NC Central (also in Durham).
Lastly, with the arrival of Cutcliffe and Marion Hobby, I don’t think there’s much chance that Duke will hit soft. We kinda took care of that by releasing Coach Roof.
