Auburn Transfer Eric Reed Jr Commits to Georgia Tech Football
On Sunday, Georgia Tech added to their secondary with Notre Dame transfer K.J. Wallace and it appears that the Yellow Jackets were not done there for the week. On Wednesday night, Auburn cornerback Eric Reed Jr became the next addition to the team when he announced that he would be taking his talent to the flats to play for Geoff Collins.
With Georgia Tech losing so many members of last year's secondary, there was going to need to be some retooling in the back of the defense. Reed becomes the fourth defensive back transfer alone for Tech, joining Wallace, Auburn transfer Ahmari Harvey, and Notre Dame transfer Khari Gee.
Reed has size at 6-1 200 LBS and could come in and play right away. He was a former four-star recruit from Louisiana and had a lot of top schools competing for his services.
The one thing to note not only about Reed but for all of these defensive back transfers is that they are all light on experience. They are all talented players but have not made it on the field very much. It will be interesting to see how many of them can be instant impact players, considering their youth and inexperience.
