Under Paul Johnson, Tech football has not been a recruiting powerhouse. There is not a long line of five-star recruits waiting to don the white and gold, and even the four star recruits are few and far between. However, Tech football is the perfect example of making the most of what one has in terms of talent. Paul Johnson has turned recruiting classes annually ranked in the 50s into top 25 teams.
For most college teams that look to field a highly competitive roster, Tech’s No. 46 nationally ranked recruiting class might come as a disappointment. However, for Tech, this 13 spot bump up from last year’s recruiting class is seen as a huge step for Tech recruiting.
