Per AJC this morning:
AJC exclusive: California star to visit Tech
Malachi Lewis, a 6-foot-4, 210-pound uber-athlete from Oxnard, Calif., has scheduled an official visit to Georgia Tech for the weekend of Jan. 19-21, the AJC’s Matt Winkeljohn reports. Lewis, who already has visited Cal, Oregon and Ole Miss, also is considering Southern Cal and Georgia.
He rushed for 1,406 yards last season at Rio Mesa High, where he also worked at wide receiver. Some recruiting analysts, however, believe he might be one of the top linebackers in the 2007 recruiting class while others feel he might play safety in college.
Tech is likely to sign 19 or 20 players in Feb., and has 18 commitments, 17 if Houston wide receiver Tyler Melton — who recently had reconstructive knee surgery — waits until January 2008 to enroll.
Lewis is one of four athletes the Yellow Jackets are still ardently recruiting. The others are North Clayton safety Morgan Burnett (who has made an official visit to Tech but no other school), Orlando linebacker Lorenzo Edwards and Baton Rouge defensive end Jason Peters.
It would be nice to get 3 out of the 4....if we can't run the table w/ all 4! GO JACKETS!!!
