Georgia Tech head coach Brent Key discusses the challenges and opportunities presented by the transfer portal after the departure of key players.
While Georgia Tech has not been the hardest hit school in the country when it comes to players entering the transfer portal , they have lost some impact players. Wide receiver Eric Singleton Jr and defensive end Romello Height were two difference makers for the Yellow Jackets this past season and both have entered the portal.
It is a new age in college football where you are not only recruiting players to come be a part of your program, but where you are also putting in just as much effort into retaining your own roster and keeping things together. After bowl practice today, Georgia Tech head coach Brent Key spoke with the media and talked about the challenges of the transfer portal: 'It's challenging, but this is this is what college football is. I mean, it's not, it's not a, we're not the only people doing it, it's not like, it's just gonna happen one time. It's gonna happen. This is what college football is, I know you guys have heard me say that if you're complaining about something that takes place, you're wasting time to be able to get better and we, we don't look at it as, you know, this black cloud, you know, rather this is an unbelievable opportunity for us to improve as a football team from a personnel standpoint, to develop our players and get better for next season and build the roster for next year.''Yeah, I mean we play a lot of guys on defense. We play a lot of guys in general on that side of the ball. So we've got guys on the team. I mean, you know, one person is not going to make a difference as far as the rotational depth and having bodies to play. I mean, you know, you see some of these teams out there. They're in dire straits right now as far as being able to play a game. That's not the case at all. We're going to continue to coach the guys that are here and prepare them not only for this game, but continue to prepare them for their career here at Georgia Tec
