Former Georgia Tech B-back Travis Custis will transfer to Hutchinson (Kansas) Community College instead of his original plan to transfer to Georgia Military College, according to multiple Internet reports. Custis left Tech at the end of the semester due to an academic eligibility issue.

GMC coach Bert Williams said he learned of Custis’ change in decision from Tech coach Paul Johnson. Williams knew only that Custis was transferring to a school in Kansas.

“Sharing the backfield with another highly decorated guy is probably part of it,” Williams said.

GMC running back Jovon Robinson is considered the No. 1 prospect in junior college. Robinson is committed to Auburn.
