Some interesting recruiting news came this afternoon when four-star tight end Kylan Fox, who is a Georgia Tech target for the class of 2024, announced on social media today that he would not be taking his planned official visit to the University of Miami.

Fox is coming off of an official visit to UCF and has an official visit lined up to Florida State towards the end of the month. One analyst at 247Sports put in a crystal ball prediction for Florida State recently and the Seminoles could be tough to beat.

This could potentially be good news for the Yellow Jackets though. They have been trying to chip away in this recruitment and while there is still plenty of ground to make up, let's see if they can get Fox on campus for an official visit and gain some momentum.

Back in April, Fox listed Georgia Tech among his top six schools.

Here is the scouting report on Fox from 247Sports Director of Scouting Andrew Ivins:

"A two-way player on Friday nights that has gotten snaps at both tight end and edge rusher. Has the desired measurements as he’s over 6-foot-4 and blessed with some additional length in the arms. Flashed on the defensive side of the ball as a sophomore in the Peach State’s highest classification, but started to bill himself as more of a tight end after a junior campaign in which he caught 25 passes for 326 yards and two scores. As a route runner, uses lanky stride to get across the field and find holes in zone coverage. Owns a bigger catch radius, but needs to keep improving the hands. Must also learn how to consistently find leverage if he’s going to be a true in-line player on Saturdays. As a defender, has showcased the ability to get around the corner and get home as he uses a nice forward lean to generate momentum. However, will need to keep progressing and learn how to formulate a plan as a pass rusher if his primary goal one day will be to pressure opposing quarterbacks. Overall, should be viewed as big athlete with some tools to work with. A case could be made that his ceiling might be highest on defense given length and burst, but had his moments as a pass catcher spring before senior season on the camp circuit."
