So where does Georgia Tech go from here? There have been several rumors that Tech will be adding several players from the Transfer Portal at quarterback, wide receiver, offensive line, and others, but will they add any other players in their recruiting class?

Looking at the class in its current state, I think there are certainly a couple spots that could use some bolstering: linebacker and tight end. Both of these positions saw players decommit leading up to the early signing period with the losses of Jaron Willis and Nate Kurisky.

What would positions would you like to see Tech target before the next signing period?
