Georgia Tech was outscored 100-0 in its final two games of 2021 and saw its home stadium overrun with red and black for the season finale. It's clear that time is running out for Collins to turn the tide on his tenure, and while it was always going to take a few years to transition out of the triple option, this season needs to indicate a major step forward. Sims has shown flashes throughout his two years at Georgia Tech but has struggled with turnovers and durability while completing just 57% of his passes. In 2021, Sims threw 12 touchdowns and seven interceptions while splitting time under center with Jordan Yates, who has since transferred to Sam Houston State. Phommachanh arrived at Clemson as a 4-star recruit and was considered one of the top dual-threat quarterbacks in the country out of high school as part of the 2019 recruiting class. However, he couldn’t crack the starting lineup as he sat behind a guy with long blonde hair in 2019 and 2020. Whether or not Phommachanh can provide that spark remains to be seen, but his addition creates competition at the most important position on the field.
Former Clemson QB comes to Georgia Tech with chance to start, save Geoff Collins’ job
Geoff Collins is entering a pivotal fourth season at Georgia Tech, and with the addition of former Clemson quarterback Taisun Phommachanh, the offense may have gotten the shot in the arm it needed.
