Georgia Tech commits and prospects had something to share with their Twitter followers Monday – copies of their official scholarship offers received from coach Paul Johnson. It’s part of the Tech recruiting office’s continuing push to appeal to prospects through social media. Monday (Aug. 1) was the first day that schools can make written scholarship offers to rising seniors, though most have already received verbal offers.
Commits including offensive linemen Demetris Harris and Michael Minihan, Buford High linebacker T.D. Roof, McEachern High cornerback Jaytlin Askew and kicker Joseph Bulovas tweeted the letters they received, as did a few players Tech is recruiting – New Orleans cornerback Tre Swilling (son of Tech great Pat Swilling), Mobile, Ala.
