All the talk about Paul Johnson’s job security may have been for nothing as according to various reports including by The Athletic’s Jeff Schultz, Paul Johnson, Georgia Tech’s head coach since 2008 is retiring. 92.9 The Game’s Bill Shank was the first to report the news on Wednesday afternoon. Multiple other outlets have also reported the story.
Before going any further, we would like to stress that these are just rumors at this point and nothing has been confirmed by Paul Jonhson or the Georgia Tech athletic department. Johnson just finished up his 11th regular season with the program as the Jackets await to hear where they will be playing in this year’s bowl season.
