Georgia Tech gives a little more time to M.L. King’s Joel Kight

After being told in late December that he risks having his scholarship offer withdrawn unless he makes a quick decision to commit to Georgia Tech, the Jackets now appear content to give M.L. King running back/defensive back Joel Kight additional time to decide on a college.

“Everything is still the same,” M.L. King coach Corey Jarvis said late Thursday. “Joel will visit Ole Miss, then make his decision.”

Kight, who took an official visit to Georgia Tech two weeks ago, is scheduled to visit Ole Miss on Jan. 16.

He will choose between Boston College, Georgia Tech, Oklahoma State and Ole Miss.

Why doesn’t the AJC just dedicate one whole section to just football. High school football is over and I can’t get a line or two on high school basketball even though this is almost the sixth or seventh week into the season.It’ll will be interesting to see how much coverage will be reported during this season since there was none before it started.Georgia is a “hotbed” for high school BB.Tournament directors know it,Recruiters know it. and through competition,other states know it…to bad our ONE and ONLY newspaper DOES NOT !!

You should go to UGA, become preaseason #1, fail miserably against the only two very good teams in your league, get beat by lowly GA Tech and their high school offense, become a joke.

Thanks Brian,it’s only fitting that the best county for High school basketball(Dekalb)would have more coverage.
