Georgia Tech early-enrollee B-back Quaide Weimerskirch underwent surgery Wednesday after suffering a foot injury in Saturday’s practice. Coach Paul Johnson said that “we’ll see about the fall” regarding his potential availability. “It depends on how he does (in his rehabilitation).”

From his Twitter account, Weimerskirch sent out a message Wednesday reading, “I’m bionic” with a smiley-face avatar. Tech moved Marcus Allen to B-back to add depth to the position. Allen came to Tech as a B-back but later switched to linebacker and then wide receiver. The Jackets also have two signees arriving in the fall at the position, Mikell Lands-Davis and Marcus Marshall. On Monday, Johnson also made mention of the possibility of a transfer.
