Creekside’s Khatavian Franks goes with Georgia Tech on signing day
Creekside High linebacker Khatavian Franks announced his decision to accept Georgia Tech’s scholarship offer Wednesday morning, taking one of the final spots available in the 2020 signing class.
Franks, a teammate of Tech signee Tyson Meiguez, made an official visit to Tech this past weekend. He previously committed to Louisville, but withdrew his commitment Nov. 23. He also had offers from Virginia Tech, Pittsburgh and Boston College, among others.
Khatavian Franks' stats are fairly ridiculous. 129 tackles, 16 sacks, 5 picks, and 2 forced fumbles.

Should be a nice addition to the defense. https://t.co/NcZWnR52Pn
He had kept his decision private until Wednesday, when he and Franks signed their letters of intent at Creekside.
Franks, 6-foot-2 and 205 pounds, is a three-star prospect rated the No. 92 prospect in the state of Georgia by 247Sports Composite.
Franks, Meiguez and Khaya Wright from Miami are the three linebackers in the class.
