Yates was never on a team coached by Paul Johnson but was the last QB recruit to commit in the summer before Johnson’s final season at Georgia Tech. When Coach Collins took over he agreed to honor the scholarships of any player already committed. With the short amount of time that Collins had to recruit, Yates was as good of a prospect as he could find for the position before signing day. He held a 4-star rating from Rivals and was considered one of the top dual-threat QBs in the nation. The quarterback for the foreseeable future could likely be one who was intended to run the offense of the past.
