Two walk-ons who are expected to be big contributors to the upcoming Georgia Tech football team have earned scholarships.
Isiah “Ike” Willis, the redshirt junior A-back expected to start this season, and junior linebacker Chase Alford have both been placed on scholarships just a few weeks before the first game against Alcorn State on September 3rd.
Congratulations to Ike Willis of Marietta and Chase Alford of Conyers for earning scholarships!! #TogetherWeSwarm

Willis only has two career rushes in two eligible seasons but has impressed the coaches with his work in the offseason after seeing so many productive A-backs leave the program in the past 8 months.
