I'm sorry but I must have tottaly missed it. Did Bobby Mooney ever even enroll? Did he wash out early?
Whatever happened to Bobby Mooney?

No longer on the roster.
Four Georgia Tech players no longer on roster
All four had eligibility remaining but saw little to no playing time last season.

Thanks, @Aigusta_Jacket. Do those in the know pretty much agree he wouldn't have seen much time? He was aupposed to be a real hoss at 330 plus.

Ok, so he would not have lived up to his legacy. Too bad.He weighed a lot but wasn’t highly recruited.

Was considered a "to be developed player"... also a long way from home..... toss in a few other fan imaginables & he might have just decided GT just wasn't for him after all, despite the legacy factor.

I'm Glad he gave it a try.
Was hoping for a great feel good story, but it didn't happen.

It always felt like a difficult legacy family situation that we were trying to do our part in, I could easily be wrong about that. I've seen GT do that from time to time over the years and I'm always fine with it when we do. It is family.

Too bad. His dad was one of my isn'e favorite players. I ws thinking the staff would give him another year to see how he actually panned out, but I guess that's more difficult today.
Good luck, Bobby! I wouldn't be surprised if you turn out to be as good a player as your Dad was!
