Freshman Focus: Norcross WR Zion Taylor

After committing to the program under the previous regime, Norcross WR Zion Taylor found himself in an interesting situation as the early signing period approached.

The option to stick with Georgia Tech was present, but several schools were pushing behind the scenes. They wanted him to sign in February rather than December, and were determined to do whatever it took to get that done.

Taylor declined to fade into that mess, officially visiting Georgia Tech a second time and then showing up and signing his NLI the following Wednesday.
