Fifth and final official visit to GT scheduled for Jan. 29, 2016:

[Buzzforlife]

Quintez Cephus is down to GT and Wisconsin for football schollie.

 

[BornAJacket]

looks like there's another spot for a WR if the Michael Summer's reports are true.

 

[Buzzforlife]

Q.C. is my guess for our next commitment.

He has an offer from us, also.

 

[BornAJacket]

hope so!

 

[GTJT622]

I just made my verbal commitment to UNLV. Just wanted you alcoholics to know. After taking official visits to Hawaii, Miami, Tulane and Georgia Tech, I have decided to continue my badminton career with the Runnin' Rebs.

I will always be a Jacket at heart and I appreciate the badminton coaching staff at the NATS for their time and effort in my recruitment.

Good luck to the Jacket Badminton Nation!

Go Rebs!

 

[Buzzforlife]

Rumor has it you're pretty good ramming the shuttlecock.

Should have heard CPJ tonight at Hudson Grille. Brandon asked him when he last shot a 69?
Johnson said: "Probably with your girlfriend".

 

[GTJT622]

I sure wish we could swipe our future QB's "little" brother from LSU... http://www.nola.com/recruiting/index.ssf/2015/11/lsu_commit_donavaughn_campbell_1.html

 

[Buzzforlife]

GT might have had him with another 10+ win season. Not to say we have no chance, but like the game next Saturday-I don't like the odds.

 

[GTJT622]

Maybe so. I always remind myself the bulk of the 1990 national title team signed when we were coming off 2-9 and 3-8 seasons. So, you never know. Having his brother on roster is hopefully a help. I often am more concerned about the negative recruiting against our offensive scheme, but if someone this late in the game is giving us an OV, that must not be an issue...or, he just wants a free trip to Atlanta (not talking about DC specifically but any recruit). I guess his brother has a pretty intimate view of Tech FB by now from the inside as well as the offense.

 

[Buzzforlife]

Donavaughn Campbell, OL(brother of Christian, a true freshman being R/S)is visiting for the Mutt game. Taking his official to GT in January.

His brother has convinced him that GT will provide excellent academic support, chance to play next season. LSU is preaching the schedule they play, his chances for the NFL going through them.

Previously an LSU commit, they are the competition. Ed Ogeron is handling this kids recruiting, thinks they will still get him(what else could he say? We have no chance?) Rumors now swirling about Les Miles on the hot seat.

This will be the young man's decision. No Mama Tuitt, lurking.

Thanks, mate. Should we get stech81 to go ahead and start building a statue? Wait. Perhaps too soon?

 

[Buzzforlife]

He's going to need a lot of Beer Cans to replicate this big 'un!
If anyone can, stech81 can. Drink 'em up!!

Did you hear about the guy on Ga. Death Row wanting a six pack of beer for his last meal?:

A potential "Christmas" present:
http://www.hudl.com/athlete/3109508/dandre-christmas-giles

GT offered this Tenn. commit on 11-14-15.

 

[Buzzforlife]

Les Miles, with one less win against Ole Miss(they were miles apart in a 38-17 game)might be helping GT's chances here:
http://www.fromtherumbleseat.com/ge...cruiting-with-les-miles-on-the-hot-seat-could

Hopefully, Ogeron(sp.)doesn't get that job.

 

[GTJT622]

Another ship opens up?... http://www.myajc.com/news/sports/college/georgia-tech-defensive-end-tyler-stargel-to-end-ca/npWLn/

Stargel chooses to forego his last year of eligibility next year.

 

[Texwood]

Yep, the 2016 class will be a big one by GT standards. If the staff fills it well, we are in damn good shape going forward.

 

[Buzzforlife]

Not sure you had a chance to listen to the CPJ replay from last night(call-in radio show)?

He stated, all the SA's scheduled to graduate by next spring are right on target.

 

[Buzzforlife]

Romeo Finley is visiting GT on Jan. 15, 2016.

Donavaughn Campbell changing destination this coming Saturday, now attending the LSU-Tex. A&M game rather than GT-Mutt game. Orgeron reportedly wants Syracuse to come calling. Another rumor has Miles accepting a buyout after the A&M contest.

Scout is free this weekend, another visit for GT coming up(with a JUCO having 3 years left):

[Buzzforlife]

Kelton Jordan Johnson, has decommitted:
http://www.fromtherumbleseat.com/20...gia-tech-football-ol-jordan-johnson-decommits

 

[Texwood]

I'm hearing that we cut him loose this morning and he decommitted after the fact.

 

[Buzzforlife]

Are all six of us still solid?:

https://mobile.twitter.com/ThaReal_TreyDog?ref_src=twsrc^tfw

Trysten Hill decommits.

Edited to say: He wants to come in early, so I look for him to enroll at Kentucky in January, 2016. At camp he told GT if they offered(he didn't have any P5 offers)he would commit. He understood how CPJ and staff operated.

 

[Texwood]

Damn. Finishing off this class was key and we just lost two. Any of you six (assuming you're all still solid) have any idea what went down with Hill?

 

[Buzzforlife]

My .02 cents, and I have nothing to substantiate it with...they know the possibility of their position coaches chances of being here next summer are slim. Both players know each other.

CLO recruits the Jacksonville area, and Jordan Johnson was wobbling earlier in the process.

CRR was the recruiting coach for Trysten Hill, who is setting up a Kentucky visit, they kept in touch the entire time.

 

[Buzzforlife]

Almost 250 yards in a playoff game for D. Mills:
http://www.nfhsnetwork.com/highlights/ware-county-high-school-waycross-ga/9371a72789

 

[Buzzforlife]

Believe that Chad Nelson, 6'4" and 250-255 lbs from St. Pius X will be a preferred walk-on at GT, unless CLO can get him a schollie with more certain to open up now. Have watched him play, and made me want to eat "pancakes" afterward, at IHOP.

He is an OL, probably a Tackle starting out the gate.

 

[Buzzforlife]

Desmond Branch, DE(JUCO, which equates to a December decision, not always grades):
http://www.hudl.com/athlete/5209814/desmond-branch

Will be at Miss. St. on Dec.11 for an official.
SMU, GT have offered(visit forthcoming on Dec. 4th for the latter).

 

[Buzzforlife]

USA Today capsulizes our two decommits:
http://usatodayhss.com/2015/ol-recr...-tech-after-alleged-campus-police-harrassment

...and keep in mind, GT cannot comment on this publicly or it would be a recruiting violation. Remembering that this kid was waffling long before this, I tend to believe more of what we can ascertain from this:
http://www.nola.com/recruiting/index.ssf/2015/11/georgia_tech_recruit_decommits.html

 

[GTJT622]

I had a lot of bad experiences at Tech. Pretty much started the first time I stepped in a classroom as a freshman. Maybe even before that when I got drunk at FASET. Puking off Peter's Puking Deck...enduring a 3-win freshman football season in '83 to 1 win over a D1A during my 2 years in grad school...to The Shaft.

Welcome to the club. Many of us can relate. Difference is, many of us dealt with it, saw the worth in the diploma (or diplomas plural in my fortunate case) and got through it. Don't want it? Move on. No hard feelings. There are others who do and will. Those are the ones I want representing us.

An official visit on Nov. 28 to GT:
