Your Favorite Underrated GT player?

Brad's heart was bigger than he was

Really wish he had another season. Would have loved to see him in Patenaude's offense. Brad strikes me as one of those guys who knew how to find the open zones to get open. The guy has REALLY good athleticism and good short space quickness.

Jeremy Muyres always brought some pain.

Sean Gregory - he was our scout team hero who made it big. Humble and tough guy.

Maybe not underrated at GT but definitely underrated in the NFL. Daryl Smith. Did nothing but produce at an extremely high level and even picked up for Ray Lewis and produced similar results with nowhere near the attention.

Everyone missed the obvious: Kevin Tisdel... I think he was a walk on and had how many kickoff returns for touchdown...

 

[LongforDodd]

Tony Daykin, David Tedder (at least in that n.d. game), Gary Lanier, Adrian Rucker, K Rhino, Johnny Gresham, David Beavin,

Tash Van Dora - name alone qualifies him.

Ahhh...Dave Beavin...'twas a great HS coach while he was at it..

Offense: Tony Hollings (the best RB I've ever seen for those first few games before injury)
Defense: Austin twins and Attaochu

He hasn't been mentioned, so …

Mackel Harris

It isn't every team with an inside LB who can cut a 4.45 40. He only weighed 195, soaking wet, but he was so fast it didn't matter. He usually didn't try to play off blocks. He ran around them and caught the RBs from behind. I loved watching that.

The Austin Twins, especially Lance Austin's name will be forever etched into the list of GT legends. Something Ill hopefully be able to tell my grandkids about in 50 years.

I've probably watched The Miracle on Techwood Drive 1500 times and Im not exaggerating.

Mike Kelly, Malcom King, Jerry Mays, and Mike Wysong.

Good list but Ed Wilder was not underrated coming out of high school. He was All State and would have been a Parade All American but for his knee injury that bedeviled him throughout his college career. Similarly, Kenny Scott was highly regarded corner back from Florida that was widely sought after. Not sure if he was truly underrated but both were outstanding as Yellow Jackets to be sure.

 

[Heisman's Ghost]

Mike Kelly, Malcom King, Jerry Mays, and Mike Wysong.

Incredibly, Mike Wysong only weighed about 160lbs as an All State quarterback from North Fulton high school in Atlanta. He was a terrific wide receiver and punt returner for Bud Carson in the early 1970s. Malcolm King was an All State running back from Americus who transitioned into a tough fullback for Bill Curry in the mid 1980s. He broke open a game against the Dwags in Athens with a burst up the middle. Only about 5'9 he was veritable giant next to Jerry Mays the speedster from Thompson.
