Nice Free Article on GT Recruiting Philosophy

Good interview with Giff Smith by Jamie Newberg on the Rivals site.

I love the fact that we will recruit several QB's, with the ones that aren't the best at that position having the opportunity to really strengthen other positions. That will give us a good chance to land great athletes that want a shot at QB who may be best at another position.


Also this piece on Nesbitt was interesting (from article):
"Josh just needs his reps and to see all those (defensive) looks," Smith said. "We will be lucky to find a Josh Nesbitt for this offense every year."

I agree.

Does Dykes fit in at QB at all ?

Sure he does. Right now he's listed at No. 2 on the depth chart ahead of Booker. The question for him will be if he's able to maintain that status once the freshmen QB's arrive. I'm doubting he'll be able to maintain it very long, but who knows. It sure is good to have him for depth reasons though. We definitely have QB depth issues and injury is a high possibility for option QB's, so he's still an important piece. It wouldn't take much for him to see the field.

Thanks for the post. I was looking around a little further and came up on Branden Smith. He has GT listed along with a million other schools. Any further info on him?
