Georgia Tech Offers Transfer Defensive End
It is about to get crazy in the college football world.
Unless your team is playing in a championship game this Saturday, the focus for the next few weeks will be on the transfer portal and high school recruiting. Georgia Tech head coach Brent Key will be evaluating how to improve this roster and improve on the six-win mark that he earned this season.
It is no secret that Georgia Tech has to play better on defense next season if they want to do that and one of the spots they will be looking to upgrade is at the defensive line. Tonight, the Yellow Jackets offered Middle Tennessee graduate transfer defensive end Zaylin Wood.
Wood played his high school football in the state of Georgia at Heard County High School and he has one year of eligibility remaining. He played four seasons for the Blue Raiders and totaled 10 sacks during his time there. He had 6.5 sacks in 2022 and three this season. He was a All Conference USA honorable mention in 2022.
His best performance in 2022 came in perhaps the biggest win in MTSU history. Wood collected two sacks, 2.0 TFLs, a fumble recovery, and an interception he returned 15 yards for a touchdown in the win at Miami

It will be interesting to see how Key and his staff decide to attack the portal. There are going to be holes on this roster and there have yet to be any transfer portal entries for the Yellow Jackets at this point. This next month is going to be huge for this program. They will be preparing for the bowl game and getting those extra practices, but also looking to upgrade the roster.
