conspiracy alert:
No Ben or Tad (seniors) in the photo, foreshadowing the team for next year, therefore Okogie is returning. Case closed

I'm fascinated by the length of their arms. Avi has pretty short arms; otoh you can see where Josh gets his 7 foot wingspan

Is Ben graduating later (or already)? Surprised he isn’t in the pic

He has a couple of engineering classes & a project to do still. Taking a light load this semester & taking a break. He's going to test the nba/pro basketball waters. Signed with an agent & is down at img Florida working out & getting ready.

@lauraee thanks! I know he had crazy academic load so I figured he was probably finishing up loose ends.

I think he could be a back of the draft sleeper pick

Georgia Tech is the first, and currently, the only Power 5 team to have Noah Basketball installed in both their practice gym and arena, setting the stage for the future of basketball analytics and shot-tracking.

The Yellow Jackets had Noah Basketball installed in the Zelnak Center in the fall of 2017, then shortly thereafter in McCamish Pavilion. They’ve been consistently using the system in both facilities ever since.

At the ACC spring meetings, the conference's coaches recommended expanding the NCAA tournament to 72 teams, pushing back the three-point line, and widening the lane, according to Brett McMurphy.

In addition to tournament expansion, moving the three-point line and a wider lane, the conference also suggests having the shot clock reset to 20 seconds after offensive rebounds instead of 30.

However, it is not in favor of changing from halves to quarters and changing the rules regarding fouls and the bonus that were implemented during the NIT, according to The Herald-Sun.
