Yes, that is the former uga player.

In some pretty shocking news, Southern Pigskin is reporting that J.J. Green "will accept an offer to continue his collegiate eligibility at Georgia Tech."

Green, a former three-star back, would be able to enroll for the 2015, but would likely have to sit until the 2016 season, but that's alright since he still has a redshirt season available after being forced into action as a true freshman last season.

Green decided to transfer away from uga after getting moved over to the defensive side of the ball, after finishing last season as the dwags' second-leading rusher.

With five scholarship players leaving at the A-Back position, a potential transfer from Green would be indefinitely valuable for the Yellow Jackets.

It is also being reported that is not a done deal yet, so this article will be continuously updated as more news comes out.

Reactions? How would JJ Green look in Old Gold and White?

Update 12/8: 247 Sports is reporting that JJ Green to Tech is a done deal according to his high school coach, Jeff Herron. Rivals also put something up about it, but it's behind a pay wall, so if you're subscribed there, go check that out too.
