Durham says "Jonathan Smith was Tech\'s best player"
"down the stretch". In Wes' column (page) in the latest issue of the Rambling Wreck he mentions "Six players to watch in '03";
1)Jonathan Smith:After battling injuries & figuring out his role within this offense, Smith was Tech's best player down the stretch. Gailey & O'B found a way to get him the ball in several fashions & he was effective with it.
2)Reuben Houston: He was a force in the GT secondary. When u think back to big plays & big hits on D, Houston had his share of them. Houston came in vs Fresno & had a couple of pass breakups & a forced fumble.
3)LeKeldrick Bridges:After waiting for Bridges to piece together a full game for Tech it happened in San Jose. The burner got loose & became Tech's best deep threat. If he's consistent next fall, he could be the next big burner for the passing game.
4)Keyaron Fox:Every time you see him he is making plays on defense.Fox is set for a big Sr yr & could be a MARQUEE player in the ACC.
5&6)Greg Gathers & Tony Hollings:Certainly can't forget these 2. Both are expected to return at full speed next Fall, but are unlikely to go through much contact work in the Spring. Hollings was soely missed after his injury. Gathers condition has improved.
