Big B's Georgia Tech Big Board for 2011 NSD

Brian Jones of Score Atlanta put together his Big Board for the uncommitted prospects that Georgia Tech is still going after. The list made its debut last night on Score Atlanta's Official Visit on Sports Radio 790 The Zone. For more of Big B, tune in this Sunday from 2-5 on 790 for the Score Atlanta Block Party.

10) Joel Hale: 6-4, 290-pound DT out of Indiana. Offers from Florida, Tech, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State and others. Loves Florida and Ohio State, but has made a point to say how comfortable he felt at Tech. Very impressive speed and agility for a player his size. A great athlete and excels against the run and at rushing the passer. Would be a huge get for Tech.

9) Kaleb Johnson: OT 6-5, 280 pounds out of Jacksonville, Florida. Offers from Arkansas, Tech, Illinois, UNC, South Carolina, and South Florida. Tech is reportedly recruiting Johnson harder than any other team and he wants to go to the school that shows most interest, but Jackets will battle UNC, Rutgers and Florida State. Not a top athlete, but has ideal size and is a productive run blocker.

8) Chris Milton: 6-0, 175-pound athlete out of Charlton County. Has interest in Duke, Wake Forest, and Tech. Decent speed with good open-field moves. Can play CB or WR. Explosive wit the ball and would add a new dimension to Tech’s offense.

7) Brian Randolph: 6-0, 180-pound safety out of Kell. Says it is between Tech and Tennessee.

6) Erique Florence: 6-2, 181-pound safety out of Alabama. Very good relationship with Tech’s Charles Kelly, grew up a Falcons fan and loves the city. Have seen much of him against the pass, but he is a viscous hitter and a monster against the run. Tough to beat Auburn and Alabama, though.

5) A.J. Johnson: 6-3, 226-pound ILB out of Gainesville. Florida, Clemson, Auburn, an Auburn will be tough to beat, but Tech is the hometown team. Clemson and Florida are the teams to beat, both have great LB coaches: Durkin and Steele. Great athlete

4) James Vaughters: 6-2, 233-pound ILB out of Tucker. All-around player. Has a top eight of Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Georgia Tech, UNC, Ohio State, Stanford and USC. Has family in Ohio.

3) Ja’Juan Story: 6-3, 190-pound WR out of Florida. Tremendous speed and atheleticism for his size, and truly among the most coveted wideouts in America. He has named Florida, Miami and Ohio State his top three, saying each can send him to the NFL.

2) Nick Marshall: 6-2, 185-pound QB out of Wilcox County. Offers from Arkansas, FSU, Tech, Georgia, Tennessee and Vanderbilt. Has a top three of Georgia, Georgia Tech and FSU. Quick release, with great accuracy and good at passing outside of the pocket. Decent arm strength. Would like to see him become a more impressive runner. Loves Bball and says FSU is recruiting him harder for basketball than Georgia.

1) Ray Drew: 6-5, 243-pound DE out of Thomas County Central. Tremendous size, athleticism and explosion, but just dominant against the pass and the run. FSU, Tech, Georgia, USC, Florida, Auburn.

PS, if you didn't tune in last night, you missed Kell safety Brian Randolph as well as Colquitt Co OT Xzavier Ward. Where the heck were you?
