With head coaches being fired and the off-season just around the corner, let’s see who is out there....

WR from Norcross. We were involved for a while last year

I'll note that there are a ton of other recruits making the trip, these are the ones with offers at this time. The top two RB targets (IMO) being on campus is noteworthy.

There will also be multiple transfer portal visitors.

Can someone point me in the direction of who to contact with the ongoing idea of doing NIL blasts after big wins? I will start the ball rolling with a $74 contribution in honor of the 74-73 win over Carolina if anyone over at Tech Way will explain why this isn’t already a thing.

My wife is out of town, and I am taking our 10, 8 and 2 year old down for the baseball game and we opted for the Champions Hall add-on. I had a couple of questions:

1). Are you able to access that area throughout the game, or is it a one-time access?
2) What are the food options like? Is it standard concessions (hot dogs, , soda)?

Any other tips/info is appreciated.

Greeting my night owls and/or early risers.
So I'll try to give some updates on where things stand across the board right now for GT.

Deebo Coleman has been working out with Amaree Abram with a private trainer and he intends to enter the transfer portal at some point in the near future per my sources (not news really). He has until May 1st to submit his paperwork and no one is really sure why he is waiting unless he is trying to line up where he is going to land first.

The other guy I'm keeping an eye on right now is Ibrahima Sacko. He doesn't quite fit into what GT is doing with his skill set and lack of height as he is basically a really undersized power forward, but Damon Stoudamire really likes the kid from what I've gathered and is trying to help him figure out his next move. I think he could stay or go. He has some value, but his ceiling is a lot lower than the rest of the guys currently on the roster or coming in IMO.

Ex-Stanford guard Kanaan Carlyle is visiting Indiana and the Hoosiers are putting up an aggressive NIL offer to him that I would be surprised to see GT or UGA match. GT is still trying to get Carlyle per my sources but are less optimistic than they were when he first went in the portal.

That brings us to Javian McCollum the Oklahoma transfer who also played at Siena. McCollum should visit GT next weekend and if that visit goes off smoothly I expect a commitment could come shortly thereafter, but we are in an age where things change on a dime hence why I am not so quick to say I expect GT to land him or not. Let's see if he is on campus and then how that visit goes before we start predicting landing a kid. He struggled in Porter Moser's system and in the Big 12 which is a very strong conference with his numbers going down from Siena, but he was very productive and his FT% for his career is better than Mark freaking Price, McCollum is a career 90.1% free throw shooter, Price was just 85% at GT. Dude was 82/87 at the line at OU, 94.3%. His three-point numbers are trending the wrong way down each season, but his volume has increased and likely the defensive attention as well as the primary scorer in his last two seasons on his team.

GT has taken a keen interest in ECU transfer Ezra Ausar who is an Atlanta native who played his senior HS season at a sports factory in Charlotte but he was at Shiloh HS before that. He is a more gifted version of Ty Claude, or Sacko as a big body 6'8" 250 who can rebound and defend well and averaged 11..4 ppg game and almost five rebounds per game, a steal and half a block per game in 26 minutes per game. What is interesting about Ausar and probably what Stoudamire likes is he can create his own scoring opportunities and is not a bad ball handler at his size. He sort of also does some of what they want Tafara Gapare to do. He kind of reminds me of Grant Williams who Damon coached with the Celtics without the 3-4 3pt attempts per game as an undersized 4 who can play the 3 as well. If you watch Ausar's tape you will even see the same types of spot of threes from the corner that Gapare misses regularly get hit. I don't know enough about ECU hoops to tell you whether he should be shooting more threes, but Ausar shot 37.5% for the season from three and 51.4% from the floor.

GT is still on Justin Pippen, no new news there. They would still take him even if they get a portal guard. I'm hearing that Pippen should have a decision fairly soon.

There are other irons in the fire, but this is the most recent stuff.

Entering the transfer portal he announced on Sunday morning. As a grad transfer.

Greetings from BDS

fire away

Same as last weekend-

Friday- Finateri
Saturday- Jones
Sunday- McKee

Christo Lamprecht is off at 8:36 AM EST along with Charl Schwartzel and Luke List. Looks like Larry Mize has decided to no longer compete. There is a disturbing number of Dwag golfers in the field (Watson, Harman, English, Straka, Henley, Kirk).

Who's your favorite?
Who's your sentimental pick?

I like Cam Smith as my pick to win. My sentimental pick is Camilo Villegas, happy for him winning a tourney this year after nearly giving up golf after his little girl passed away.

Not sure if this has been mentioned before but Taquon is now on the staff at Georgia St.

Greetings from Nation Ford HS which is technically in South Carolina but this is our Charlotte camp. A few GT targets in the OL/DL group. Geep Wade and Kyle Pope recruit these areas.

Georgia Tech has split its roster into two teams for Saturday’s spring game – Team Swarm, which will occupy the west (home) sideline, and Team Wreck ‘Em, which will occupy the east (visitor) sideline.



While the roster is divided into two teams, all offensive players (minus quarterbacks) will wear white jerseys and all defensive players will wear gold jerseys.

The game will feature four quarters. The first half will consist of two 12-minute quarters with standard clock operations, while the second half will have two 15-minute quarters with a running clock that stops only after scoring plays, change of possession and for the final four minutes of the contest.

Good morning. The final practice day prior to the spring game has arrived. With spring games scheduled all over the country for this weekend, particularly on a larger scale, the staff at Georgia Tech have been quite strategic this spring in finding ways to get their top targets on campus throughout the spring.

With three public commitments heading into the weekend, I am anticipating at least one more addition to the class in the coming days..

By all reports, it seems like Calipari is going to Arkansas. This Kentucky HC search is going to be fascinating.

The article paywalled, but I saw the tweet and thought it would be worth sharing. It's not something most of us don't already know, but the infographic is particularly revealing.
