Notes, quotes from 9/9 GT player media with Walker, Allen, Harris
Summary
-
Georgia Tech defensive end Jordan Walker said the line must be more forceful at the point of attack after Colorado's rushing success, and his opener usage included shifting inside in a five-man front.
-
Georgia Tech's receiver group offers contrasting deployment options in the players' assessment: Jordan Allen can align in the backfield and work routes, while Dalen Penson adds downfield speed, stride length and separation ability.
-
Georgia Tech receiver Jordan Allen credited offseason work with Alberto Mendoza for mutual quarterback-receiver trust and highlighted Mendoza's ability to extend the pocket and keep deeper receiving opportunities alive when the first read is unavailable.
-
Georgia Tech safety Tae Harris expects his assignment to change week to week, describes his role as providing physicality for the defense and said his own Colorado performance remained below his standard despite positive outside feedback.
-
Tennessee's passing personnel was the central secondary challenge in Harris' scouting comments, with true-freshman quarterback Faizon Brandon's throwing ability complemented by receivers combining size and speed.
