Jacksonville loves Tech and ACC players, apparently. So cool for Jalen. Let's see how he looks with Trevor throwing to him.

Over the last 15 years, if you start for us as a WR for more than 1 year, you have like an 80% chance of playing on the NFL.

Corey Dennis influence on Urban?

There are certainly worse situations for a WR than having Meyer as a head coach and Trevor Lawerence at QB. He should get a good chance to show what he can do.

Love it! Hopefully carves himself out as the next Metcalf.

Great to see.

And Urban's daughter Nicki Meyer attended Tech and played volleyball.

Speaking of him he is now QB coach at Ohio State. Name to keep an eye on down the road for coaching hires.

Dated her when they were both at Tech. Got him a Grad job at OSU

Super impressive he's making moves at a young age. Definitely need to keep an eye out

That's really awesome. Super happy for Jalen and the Camp family. The guy has worked so hard, and has always bought into our program over two head coaches.

Looking forward to him catching passes from Trevor Lawrence and making some noise on the NFL level. He's just beginning to scratch his potential.

Another reason to watch the Jaguars now.

I've been cheering for Jalen since before he committed out of South Forsyth (my old school.) Awesome Jacket. Awesome Family. I could not be happier for him. THWG!

I wonder how many people here just became urban fans.

Interesting comment about the impact that a message board comment had on Camp from an AJC article about him being drafted,


He indeed was, one more piece of evidence that he has become far more than the two-star label he bore at South Forsyth. He hasn’t forgotten it, along with a comment from a fan on a Tech message board expressing disappointment that Camp was part of former coach Paul Johnson’s signing class. Camp’s father took a screenshot of the comment and sent it to his son.

“I’ve used that as a chip on my shoulder for my entire college career,” Camp said. “Just because I believe in myself, I believe in my talent. So that was something that drove me throughout my entire college career and then throughout this (pre-draft) training process. Not so much to prove people wrong, but to prove myself right.”

Definitely wish him the best with this new opportunity!
