Brent Key bringing different plan to Georgia Tech recruiting
When the offensive linemen who signed letters of intent Wednesday with Georgia Tech arrive on campus, they’ll show up with the benefit of a head coach who has worked them out at a camp or seen them at their own teams’ practices.

My favorite quote: "Yet another priority – bringing in transfers who have more than one season of eligibility remaining. Of the six players coming to Tech through the portal, four have more than one year left to play. In Collins’ tenure, that did not appear to be of importance.
The two transfers with one season of eligibility remaining are linebackers, Andre White (Texas A&M) and Braelen Oliver (Minnesota). Both arrive as the Jackets lose Charlie Thomas and Ayinde Eley, who both started at linebacker for the past two seasons.
“When you’re developing a football team, you develop a team to win and win as soon as you can, but at the same time, you’re not going to forsake that for Year 2, Year 3, Year 4,” Key said. “So there’s got to be a process, and there’s got to be a way of doing things, and you can’t change.”"
I've been complaining a lot about the one year remaining eligibility transfers. Looks like Key aims to fix that issue.
