Johnson made the observation that it was a strong year for defensive linemen. Johnson said that defensive tackle Chris Martin from Grayson recruited Tech as much as Tech recruited him and “had a lot of good offers.” Defensive end Jordan Woods “could have gone pretty much anywhere he wanted,” according to Johnson. Defensive tackle Brandon Adams had been committed to Vanderbilt, “and then when he came to us, he got hit by two or three more (SEC schools), and he kind of held steadfast in his recruiting,” Johnson said.
Pelton said the recruitment of defensive lineman Desmond Branch was initiated by an e-mail from Branch’s older brother Alan, a defensive tackle with the New England Patriots.

Now in his third year of college (with three years of eligibility remaining), Branch would appear positioned to help most quickly, and his versatility could also help him see the field.
The group ... returns starters Pat Gamble, Rod Rook-Chungong and KeShun Freeman. Tackle Kyle Cerge-Henderson should make strides after being thrown into the lineup halfway through his first-year freshman season. End Anree Saint-Amour showed playmaking ability, particularly late in the season. Brentavious Glanton and Scott Morgan will come off their redshirt seasons. Tackle Francis Kallon will enter his make-or-break senior season.
