No. 17: Lee County OT Wing Green
Well, that was fast.
Just days after saying he wanted to take his time, and see what was out there following his Thursday unofficial visit to the Flats, Lee County OT Wing Green Jr. made the decision on Tuesday to commit to the Yellow Jackets.
Green becomes the 17th known public commitment for the class of 2020, and is another piece to the puzzle that OL coach Brent Key and the rest of the staff are putting together in the trenches.
IN HIS OWN WORDS
"Georgia Tech is going to help me better myself, as a man, as a football player, and as a student. When I told the coaches I was ready to commit, they were all extremely happy, and excited to have the chance to coach me."
WHAT MADE GEORGIA TECH HOME FOR HIM: First, the education aspect of things. They present great opportunities, and everybody there was very friendly. Next, the coaching staff. They make you feel like you're at home, and the great positive energy around the program is great. I know it is somewhere that I can be built up, as a student/player/person.
WHY HE DIDN'T WAIT: "I just loved the culture up there. The staff, I loved them. I know they are going to help me become a great player, so I had to take the opportunity that was given to me."
OTHER VISITS? "I'm shutting it all down."
