After the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets defeated the Mississippi State Bulldogs 49-34, social media started buzzing in celebration with Jackets fans marveling at the performance of Justin Thomas.
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
Some of those tweets on Twitter or posts on Facebook proclaimed that Jackets head coach Paul Johnson may have found his new Tracy Ham in Justin Thomas.
Tracy Ham, for those who don’t know, was the quarterback for then offensive coordinator Paul Johnson’s Georgia Southern Eagles’ teams that won back-to-back Division I-AA National Championships in 1985 and 1986.
Of course it would seem that comparing Ham and Thomas would make sense after Thomas guided the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets to possibly the schools biggest football accomplishment since the share of 1990 National Championship with the Colorado Buffalos.
