Georgia Tech got an early start on the 2021 recruiting class on Sunday, when wide receiver Malik Rutherford, from Hialeah, Fla., announced his commitment on Twitter.
Rutherford, listed at 5-foot-9 and 165 pounds, announced his offer from Tech on July 26. He had reported offers from Nebraska, Indiana, Syracuse and Tulane, among others.
