PAUL JOHNSON: IMPRESSIVE NUMBERS
Paul Johnson has led Georgia Tech to 33 wins -more than any other coach in his first four seasons with the Yellow Jackets. Between 1967 and Johnson’s arrival in 2008, Georgia Tech went 2-29-1 at home vs. teams ranked in the top 10. Johnson is 2-1 at home against top-10 teams. Johnson is 6-2 at home against top 25 opponents. Since Bobby Dodd retired after the 1966 season, only one Georgia Tech coach -- George O’Leary (.612) - won 60 percent of his games. Johnson’s win percentage is .642. Johnson is the first Tech coach to win eight or more games in three of his first four seasons. He has at least eight wins in 13 of his 15 seasons as a head coach. Johnson is just the fourth ACC coach to defeat all 11 conference opponents, joining Bobby Bowden, Frank Beamer and Tom O’Brien. He is 12-4 at Tech in games decided by five points or less. Johnson’s Tech teams are 22-1 when scoring more than 30 points. He is the first coach in ACC history to be named Coach of the Year in each of his first two seasons. Only four coaches in ACC history won more games in their first four seasons than Johnson. Tech has scored at least one rushing touchdown in 48 of 53 games under Johnson. In 12 of the Jackets’ 33 wins under Johnson, Tech trailed by seven points or more. Johnson and partner Jon Barry, the former Tech basketball standout, have captured the Chick-fil-A Challenge charity golf tournament each of the last two years.

NCAA INFRACTIONS REPORT In July of 2011, the National College Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I Committee on Infractions found the Georgia Institute of Technology men's basketball and football programs have committed violations of NCAA regulations. The Institute was cited for a lack of cooperation during the investigation, a failure to meet the conditions and obligations of membership and preferential treatment violations. There were additional violations in the men's basketball program related to rules stemming from a nonscholastic basketball tournament conducted on the Institute's campus, which the public report further details. "Georgia Tech is committed to the integrity of its athletics program, including full cooperation and support of the NCAA," said Georgia Tech President G.P. "Bud" Peterson. "Given the information we had at the time, I believe we took reasonable and appropriate steps to determine the proper course of action and acted in good faith. Looking back, there are things we could have done differently. Because of our unwavering commitment to NCAA compliance, we have already taken a number of steps to address perceived shortcomings, hopefully ensuring that our programs remain beyond reproach." After being notified of the allegations in November 2009, Georgia Tech conducted its own internal investigation, forming a committee made up of faculty, staff and external counsel that made recommendations based on available information and the internal investigation findings. As a result of this exhaustive review process and because of Georgia Tech's steadfast commitment to compliance, the Institute completely revamped and enhanced its athletic compliance operation and staffing. Changes include a greater investment in experienced staff, training and awareness among staff and student athletes. Penalties include: Public reprimand and censure. Four years of probation from July 14, 2011, through July 13, 2015. The report further details this probation. A $100,000 financial penalty. A reduction of two men's basketball recruiting days during the 2011 summer evaluation period (self-imposed by the Institute). A limit to 10 official visits for men's basketball for the 2011-12 and 2012-2013 academic years. A vacation of all contests won by the football team during the 2009 season after November 24, which is when the university was alerted to the potential eligibility issues.

The 2012 season will mark the 60th anniversary of Georgia Tech’s 1952 undefeated and national championship team. The ‘52 Yellow Jacket team was a dominant squad, finishing 12-0 including a win over Mississippi in the Sugar Bowl. Tech, which had six first team All-Americans on the roster, won four games in October by a combined score of 97-7.
Georgia Tech’s non-conference schedule is rated the 8th-most difficult nationally by the Daily Oklahoman. Of all the players in ACC history with 1,000 career rushing yards, Tech’s Orwin Smith has the highest percarry average. Yellow Jacket junior cornerback Louis Young has a black belt in karate. Tech’s roster includes a number of players from “college” towns -- three players are from Tallahassee (Fla.), one from Knoxville (Tenn.), Austin (Texas) and Blacksburg (Va.). Is Tech So.

HISTORY
BOBBYDODDSTADIUM
Georgia Tech’s storied football facility has been a cornerstone of college football for 100 years. Cozily nestled amid Atlanta’s skyscrapers, Bobby Dodd Stadium at Historic Grant Field is easily one of the nation’s most unique settings for college football. Originally built in 1913 by members of the Georgia Tech student body, Bobby Dodd Stadium at Historic Grant Field is the oldest on-campus stadium in NCAA Division I-A (FBS). Georgia Tech’s football facility was known as Grant Field until April of 1988, when the Georgia State Board of Regents voted to add the name Bobby Dodd Stadium in honor of the legendary coach who guided the Rambling Wreck to its most illustrious football era. A member of the National Football Foundation College Football Hall of Fame, Dodd compiled a 165-64-8 record from 194566, and tutored 21 All-Americans as he led Tech to 13 bowl trips during his 22-year stay as head coach. Dodd served as Tech’s director of athletics from 1951-76 and then worked as a consultant for the alumni association until his death in 1988 for a 57-year association with the Institute. The name change was the first for the facility since it was named Hugh Inman Grant Field in 1914 after a gift from John W. Grant, a member of the Tech Board of Trustees and a well-known Atlanta merchant. The Grant family did not give the land on which Grant Field is built. However, they did give the initial $15,000 used in 1913 to build the first permanent concrete stands on the west side of the field. In gratitude for the gift, the Board of Trustees named the field Hugh Inman Grant Field in memory of Grant’s deceased son. The students who built Grant Field some 100 years ago wouldn’t recognize the home of Georgia Tech football if they saw it now. Not only has the skyline around the stadium changed dramatically, but the facility has steadily grown and improved during its rich history. Tech actually began playing football on this site in

1905, but in 1913, the original concrete West Stands were largely built by Tech students and seated 5,600. The concrete East Stands were completed in time for the 1924 season. A year later, the South Stands were finished, bringing the seating capacity to approximately 30,000. In 1947, the West Stands were rebuilt, which raised the capacity to 40,000, and a new press box was added. The North Stands were erected in 1958 to bring the seating to 44,105. A second deck was added to the East side in 1962, increasing capacity to 53,300. The facility was expanded again in 1967, when the West Stands were double-decked to bring capacity to 58,121. That project also included new press and photo levels, including an elevator. Following the 1985 season, the historic South Stands, which formed the familiar U-shape on North Avenue, were razed. In their place is the William C. Wardlaw Center, a multi-purpose facility for Georgia Tech’s athletic and academic departments that was opened in 1988. Seating capacity was reduced to 46,000. A major renovation was completed prior to the 1992 season with the construction of the Bill Moore Student Success Center behind the West Stands, as well as the addition of 32 executive suites, the renovation of the President’s Box and press level and the addition of the Roy Richards Festival concourse area under the West Stands. Natural grass returned to Grant Field in 1995 after 24 seasons with artificial turf. The field was originally surfaced with Astroturf in 1971 and resurfaced in 1979, and then new artificial All-Pro Turf was installed in 1988. The venerable stadium added another chapter to its storied history with a new look and an expanded capacity in 2003 when a two-year expansion and renovation raised capacity to 55,000 seats and added numerous amenities. The $75 million endeavor included the expansion and renovation of Bobby Dodd Sta-
dium/Grant Field and the rebuilt Russ Chandler Stadium, Tech’s 4,157-seat baseball facility. The focal point of the project was the north end zone structure, which seats 15,678 in two levels and also includes 10 luxury suites and the Howard Ector Letterwinners Lounge. The complex also features the 7,000-square foot Kim King Football Locker Room, a 3,300-square foot players’ lounge, the Jones Media

JOHN AND MARY BROCK FOOTBALL PRACTICE FACILITY Georgia Tech's football program has an indoor practice facility thanks to a commitment from Mary R. and John F. Brock III, ChE 70, MS ChE 71. The John and Mary Brock Football Practice Facility officially opened in August, 2011. A member of both the Georgia Tech Foundation and the Alexander-Tharpe Fund boards, Brock also chaired his 40th reunion committee. He previously served as a member of the Georgia Tech Advisory Board and his 25th reunion committee, and he was named a College of Engineering Distinguished Alumnus in 1996. Brock also provided funding for two Georgia Research Alliance chairs and eminent scholars in cancer research at both Georgia Tech and Emory University. Additionally, the Brocks have established the Brock Family Fund, which supports the Child and Adolescent Moods Disorder Program at Emory, and established an undergraduate scholarship for the Georgia Tech School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. "It gives us a place here on campus that we can practice in bad weather and get in during storms plus it will help in recruiting,” head coach Paul Johnson said. “It is something that we needed so it was awfully kind of John and Mary to do that."

bordered by North Avenue on the south and Bobby Dodd Way on the north. Tech has hosted numerous crowds which have exceeded capacity, the largest of which was the 60,316 spectators for the Georgia game in 1973. Georgia Tech continues to make improvements to the facility on a yearly basis. The most recent and visible addition is a new, larger video board and ribbon boards installed just in time for the start of the 2009 season. Renovations were also done in 2009 on the Festival level of the west side and throughout the stadium. In the 99 autumns since Grant Field was erected, legends from Clint Castleberry to George Morris to Joe Hamilton to Calvin Johnson have played here, and Paul Johnson joins coaching giants such as John Heisman and Bobby Dodd in patrolling the Grant Field sideline. Four national title teams and 15 conference champions have showcased their skills on the Flats, and Grant Field was the site of one of the most famous games ever played, Tech’s 222-0 win over Cumberland in 1916. Today’s Bobby Dodd Stadium seats 55,000 fans in a modern, comfortable facility that embraces the tradition that has made Tech’s venerable stadium a cornerstone of college football for nearly a century.

THE RAMBLING WRECK September 30, 1961 versus Rice. For the first time, the official Rambling Wreck car led the Georgia Tech football team onto Grant Field. It’s happened at every home game since. The event did not establish a new tradition at Georgia Tech, but it cemented one. The vehicle, a restored 1930 Model A Ford Sport Coupe, was Tech’s first official Rambling Wreck car. Since that time, the Rambling Wreck car has joined a much older tradition -- the Yellow Jacket -- as an official school mascot. The term Rambling Wreck was first applied to a 1914 Ford owned by Floyd Field, Dean of Men. In the first published reference to the car as the “Rambling Wreck” in 1927, the Technique student newspaper spoke out against Field when he considered trading the car, but he did it anyway. Tech officials decided in the late 1950s that the school needed an official car that would be known forever as the Rambling Wreck. Dean of Students James Dull began a search for a pre-1940 vintage model, and finally found one-parked in front of his apartment building. The owner, Capt. Ted J. Johnson, a Delta Air Lines pilot, had just finished restoring the 1930 Ford Cabriolet Sport Coupe,

which he intended to give to his son as a gift. Johnson decided to let Tech have the car for $1,000 in May, 1961. He later returned the purchase price in the form of a contribution to the AlexanderTharpe Fund, fulfilling a desire to go on record as having given the Rambling Wreck to Georgia Tech.
the Lucy Cobb Institute for Girls attended the game to cheer for Tech, dressed in white and gold.
THE YELLOW JACKET Conflicting accounts exist as to the origins and beginnings of the Yellow Jacket, but the nickname did not grow out of the familiar six-legged insect; rather, the insect mascot, known as “Buzz,” grew out of the nickname. The first known reference to Tech students as “Yellowjackets” appeared in the Atlanta Constitution in 1905 and came into common usage at that time. The name, spelled as one word, was first used to describe supporters who attended Tech athletic events, dressed in yellow coats and jackets. The actual mascot was conceived at a later, undetermined date. Other nicknames which have applied to Tech teams include the Engineers; the Tecks, the first known nickname which was phased out around 1910; the Blacksmiths, common between 1902 and 1904; and the Golden Tornado, thought to be created by sportswriters when John Heisman led Tech to its first national title in 1917.
THE FIGHT SONG The Georgia Tech fight song grew out of an old folk ballad, “The Sons of the Gamboliers.” Howard D. Cutter, a member of Tech’s first graduating class (Mechanical Engineering, 1892), wrote in the November-December 1942 issue of the Georgia Tech Alumnus that the “Ramblin’ Wreck” had its origins during the first two years after Tech opened in 1888, inspired when the entire student body traveled to Athens to see Tech’s baseball team defeat Georgia. By the early 1900s, “Ramblin’ Wreck” was an established tradition. The earliest existing published version of the song appeared in the Blueprint, the Institute’s yearbook, in 1908. In 1910, Michael A. Greenblatt, Tech’s first bandmaster, discovered the band playing “Ramblin’ Wreck” to the tune of “Sons of the Gamboliers,” and made his first arrangement of the song in the form of a handwritten manuscript. When Frank Roman succeeded Greenblatt as bandmaster in 1911, he wrote a new adaptation of “Ramblin’ Wreck,” accompanied by many trumpet flourishes, that became nationally known. His is the version that continues to be popular today. The fame of the song spread to such proportions that in 1959 it was sung by Richard Nixon and Nikita Khrushchev at their historic face-to-face meeting in Moscow. In 1984, the law firm of Newton, Hopkins & Ormsby investigated the copyright of “Ramblin’ Wreck” and found that a number of people have had various versions of the song copyrighted. The original version of the song is in the public domain and can be played without payment of royalties.
WHITE & GOLD In the fall of 1891, before Georgia Tech organized a football team of its own, a game was scheduled between Auburn and Georgia. A rivalry was already established in baseball between Tech and Georgia, so Tech students were invited to the game to cheer, of course, for Auburn. The students appointed a committee to recommend colors to be worn and cheers to be used at the game. The committee suggested white and gold, and about 200 students attended the game wearing those colors. In 1893, when Georgia Tech’s football team played Georgia for the first time, a group of young women from
Oh well it’s up with the White and Gold Down with the Red and Black Georgia Tech is out for the victory We’ll drop the battle axe on Georgia’s head When we meet her, our team is sure to beat her Down on the old farm there will be no sound Till our bow-wows rip through the air When the battle is over, Georgia’s team will be found With the Yellow Jackets swarming around.
I’m a Ramblin’ Wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer, A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, hell of an engineer, Like all the jolly good fellows, I drink my whiskey clear, I’m a Ramblin’ Wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer. Oh, if I had a daughter, sir, I’d dress her in White and Gold, And put her on the campus, to cheer the brave and bold. But if I had a son, sir, I’ll tell you what he’d do. He would yell, “To Hell with Georgia,” like his daddy used to do. Oh, I wish I had a barrel of rum and sugar three thousand pounds, A college bell to put it in and a clapper to stir it around. I’d drink to all good fellows who come from far and near. I’m a ramblin’, gamblin’, hell of an engineer.

More Athletic, Deeper Roster Faces Challenge Right Out Of The Gate Georgia Tech returns 13 starters, both kicking specialists and 48 letterwinners from a 2011 team that exceeded all expectations. Last year’s team, predicted by most to hover at .500 at best, finished with eight wins, placed second in the ACC’s Coastal Division and played in a bowl game for the 15th consecutive season. Still, the Yellow Jackets went just 2-5 down the stretch, albeit against a difficult schedule. Tech closed the 2011 campaign with a 30-27 overtime loss to Utah in the Sun Bowl. “We did not finish where we would’ve liked,” said head coach Paul Johnson, who enters his fifth season on the Flats. “That’s been a big focus in the off-season.” While Johnson must replace nine starters -- four on offense, five on defense -- he enters 2012 with his deepest and most athletic roster. "We've been working for a few years trying to get deeper and more athletic," Johnson said. "I would say we've made pretty good progress." Johnson also continues to make the roster more balanced. “We’re still a young team,” Johnson said. “We have just 10 (scholarship) seniors.” The Yellow Jackets will have to grow up in a hurry. They open the season Labor Day night at Virginia Tech in a nationally-televised game. Also in September, Tech will host Virginia and Miami, two Coastal Division foes who beat the Yellow Jackets last season. “I think it’s safe to say, we’ll know a lot about our team at the end of September.” The opener in Blacksburg should be a thriller. The winner of the Tech-Tech game has gone on to play in the ACC championship game every year since divisional play began in 2005. Since Johnson’s arrival in 2008, Virginia Tech is the only team that has won more ACC games than the Jackets. “We're going to have to play them [Virginia Tech] sooner or later so let's just see if we can get ready and play them right out of the gate," said Johnson.

2012PREVIEW be interesting." The 2012 schedule is unique. Not only will Tech play three Coastal Division opponents in September, its home opener comes just five days after playing at Virginia Tech. The Jackets may not be able to have a padded practice before hosting Presbyterian Sept. 8. The Yellow Jackets play four straight home games in September, but close the season with three of four November games on the road, including the regular season finale at Georgia. Big Shoes To Fill Of the nine starters gone from last year’s team, three were non-seniors and departed in different ways. Junior wide receiver Stephen Hill entered the NFL draft, where he was taken in the second round by the New York Jets. Junior inside linebacker and co-captain Julian Burnett had to give up football for medical reasons. Junior tackle Phil Smith, after being suspended, transferred to UCF. Hill and Burnett will be difficult to replace. Hill was Tech’s big-play threat at receiver, hauling in 28 passes for 820 yards and five touchdowns. He averaged 29.3 yards per reception, which ranked first nationally. Burnett, an undersized but tenacious inside linebacker, led the Yellow Jackets in tackles in both 2010 and 2011. What To Look For In 2012 One thing you can hang your hat on when it comes to Johnson-coached teams is that the Yellow Jackets will be able to run the football. Over the last four years combined, Georgia Tech has averaged more than 300 yards rushing per game, best among all FBS teams. Last year’s squad ranked second nationally in rushing despite not having a 1,000-yard rusher for the first time in Johnson’s tenure. Johnson, however, wants to see more efficiency in the passing game, which could open things up for his high-powered offense. "With our offense there are going to be opportunities in the passing game," said Johnson. "We have to do a better job taking advantage of those opportunities." For the passing game to be a threat, there will need to be protection from an improved offensive line, better efficiency from the quarterbacks and inexperienced receivers will have to make catches. With Hill and Tyler Melton gone from last year’s team, no current Tech wide receiver has a career reception. For the offense to perform at maximum capacity, it will need help from the defense. The defense has made strides under third-year defensive coordinator Al Groh, but too often opponents have been able to control the ball and the clock. “What we found was that we were putting our defense in third-and-short way too much," Groh said. "We have to do a better job on first and second down. That's our challenge." Johnson agrees. "For us it's about getting the defense off the field so that we can get one or two more possessions per game," said Johnson. "The number of possessions you play can make a big difference." Tech also expects improvement on special teams, where the Jackets struggled with consistency, especially in the return game. When Johnson had an opening on his staff, he hired his first special teams coordinator, Dave Walkosky, who got a chance to make an impression in spring practice. Solid Spring The best news from spring practice, Johnson will tell you, is that there were no significant injuries. Meanwhile, two of Tech’s top players -- senior A-

Offensive Line The offensive line is deeper and more talented than at any time in Paul Johnson’s tenure. The key is keeping them healthy. Senior Omoregie Uzzi, a second team All-American and first team All-ACC selection last season, sat out all of spring to recover from injury. Uzzi has worked hard to get back on the field, but it’s not clear if the standout
HISTORY
2012 INFORMATION GUIDE
Wide Receiver The bad news is that there isn’t a receiver on the roster with a career reception. The good news is that there are young receivers with loads of potential ready to make their mark. Sophomores Jeff Green and Darren Waller both played last season as true freshmen. While neither had a reception, both gained valuable experience, improved their blocking skills and contributed on special teams. Senior Chris Jackson, the former Alabama transfer, enters the fall as a starter and ready to see his first significant playing time. Junior Jeremy Moore saw limited action last season after sitting out all of 2010 with an injury. Johnson would like to play five or six receivers, so there could be an opening here for a true freshman to play.

A-Back Senior Orwin Smith should be 100 percent healthy after missing all of spring practice to recover from turf toe surgery. Despite being plagued with that turf toe all of last season, Smith produced 921 yards via rushing (615) and receiving (306). He was also Tech’s primary kick returner. Smith may be Tech’s top All-ACC candidate among the skill position players. Last year he averaged 10.1
B-Back In each of Paul Johnson’s first three seasons at Tech, B-backs Jonathan Dwyer or Anthony Allen rushed for 1,000 yards and earned All-ACC honors. That streak ended last year, but the position remained productive by committee. Junior David Sims was Tech’s second-leading rusher (698 yards, 7 TDs) last season. He enters the fall as the starter at B-back, but he has competition. Athletic sophomore Charles Perkins, who had 28 rushing attempts last year, is a solid back-up. Sophomore Zach Laskey moved from defensive back to Bback in the spring and was impressive.

2011 REVIEW
Quarterback Senior Tevin Washington has started 17 consecutive games at quarterback, and he has earned the right to enter fall practice as a solid bet to make it 18 straight. That doesn’t mean back-ups Days and redshirt freshmen Vad Lee, or even true freshman Justin Thomas won’t push him in August, but Washington does have the inside track. Playing this season as a graduate student, Washington is a proven manager of the offense and has played in big games. He has passed for more than 2,000 yards and rushed for more than 1,500 yards while being responsible for 31 career touchdowns. Days, an exceptional runner, should get more carries this season, but it’s not clear if that will be at quarterback or at A-back. Days can play either. Lee has shown glimpses of being a true dual-threat quarterback, lacking only game experience.
yards per rushing attempt and 23.5 yards per reception and he is the first player in Tech history to have 100 yards rushing and receiving in the same game. Smith headlines a position with good depth. Junior Robert Godhigh and sophomore Deon Hill both enjoyed outstanding springs. Sophomore Tony Zenon may be the fastest player on the roster. And B.J. Bostic is back after missing all of last season with an injury.

back Orwin Smith and senior All-American guard Omoregie Uzzi -- sat out all of spring practice to recover from injuries or surgery. Smith will be 100 percent this fall, Uzzi is hopeful of being completely healthy. At quarterback, senior Tevin Washington did nothing to dislodge his hold of the starting job, while sophomore Synjyn Days and redshirt freshman Vad Lee proved to be solid back-ups. Days, who is probably the better runner of the three QBs, saw some practice time at A-back as well. Johnson and his staff were encouraged with the recovery of sophomores Fred Holton and B.J. Bostic. Holton, a safety, and Bostic, an A-back and kick returner, both missed all of last season with injuries. "We had a pretty good spring and we've got a chance to be better in some areas," said Johnson. We just have to wait and see how we do when we play the games." The spring culminated with a Friday night Gold/White game that drew a spring-game record crowd to Bobby Dodd Stadium.

Omoregie Uzzi
guard will be 100 percent healthy. Junior center Jay Finch has emerged as a steady, vocal leader. He’s on the preseason watch list for the Rimington Trophy. There is great depth at guard. Joining Uzzi at guard is junior Will Jackson, a twoyear starter, sophomore Shaquille Mason, who played last season as a true freshman, and senior Nick McRae, a valuable reserve the past three seasons. Trey Braun, who nearly had his redshirt pulled last season as a true freshman, is very much in the mix. At tackle, junior Ray Beno is a returning starter. Sophomore Morgan Bailey, who has been hampered by injuries the previous two years, enters the fall as the starter at right tackle. He’ll be pushed by Tyler Kidney, who started six games last season. Redshirt freshman Bryan Chamberlain should make an immediate impact. Redshirt freshman Errin Joe should also be in the rotation. Defensive Line Statistically, the defensive line was hit hardest by graduation as starting tackle Logan Walls and starting end Jason Peters have moved on. At end, however, the Yellow Jackets have plenty of talent and experience returning. Senior end Izaan Cross, who has 39 career starts, anchors one side. Cross has 83 career tackles and 10 tackles for loss. Junior Euclid Cummings, who saw significant playing time last season as a reserve, is coming off an outstanding spring. Junior Emmanuel Dieke, who teammates call “Too Tall” (he’s 6-6), will battle Cummings, junior Chris Crenshaw and sophomore Anthony Williams for the starting job. Senior T.J. Barnes, who has seen considerable playing time in each of the three previous seasons, is the starter at tackle. Since last season Barnes has shed 25 pounds, which should help his speed and endurance. Sophomore Shawn Green enters the fall as the top back-up to Barnes. Linebacker Tech suffered two major losses to the linebacker corps. Gone is Julian Burnett, who led the Yellow Jackets in tackles each of the past two seasons before seeing his career end prematurely because of a medical condition. Also gone is OLB Steven Sylvester, a co-captain who graduated last year.
28
The linebacker cupboard, however, is stocked well. Junior OLB Jeremiah Attaochu, who had 11.5 tackles for loss, 6.0 sacks and two forced fumbles last season, should be one of the premier linebackers in the ACC. Opposite Attaochu will be junior Brandon Watts, who possesses great speed and enters the fall as a starter. Senior Malcolm Munroe and redshirt freshman Tyler Marcordes should both be solid contributors. Sophomore Quayshawn Nealy started seven games last season and had an electrifying pick-six in the bowl game against Utah. Junior Daniel Drummond started six games and made great strides in his first year at that position. Redshirt freshman Jabari Hunt-Days, who has star potential, enjoyed a great spring. Anthony Harrell is a hard-hitting redshirt freshman who only lacks playing time. “We refer to (Harrell) as a heat-seeking missile,” Johnson said. “He just likes to hit somebody. It’s not always the right people or the right spot, but he’s going to hit somebody on every play. If we can kind of get him pointed in the right direction, I think he’s got a bright future.” Secondary The secondary, which includes five players that secondary coach Charles Kelly considers starters, may very well be Georgia Tech’s most loaded position group. Cornerback Rod Sweeting, an honorable mention All-ACC selection in 2011, is the only senior among the group. Sweeting recorded three interceptions and a team-high 10 pass break-ups last season. The other cornerback slot will be filled by junior Louis Young, who started 12 games, or junior Jemea Thomas, who seems to always be on the field in crunch time. Thomas’ two fourth-quarter interceptions against Clemson last season earned him ACC DB of the Week honors. There is also a group of even younger players who will keep the secondary in good hands for years to come. Sophomore Jamal Golden should play a much larger role this season and redshirt freshmen Chris Milton and Domonique Noble are ready to make a splash. Junior Isaiah Johnson, who has 16 career starts and four career interceptions, should be considered one of the top safeties in the ACC this fall. He’ll be joined deep by sophomore Fred Holton, who has made a full recovery from a torn Achilles tendon that kept him off the field all of last season. Sophomore Corey Dennis is a solid back-up to Johnson and walk-on Coray Carlson has been impressive enough to make the two deep. Specialists Georgia Tech returns its primary kicker and punter, but neither junior Justin Moore or junior Sean Poole are assured of that role again this fall. Moore is coming off a solid sophomore season in which he made 11-of-17 field goals and was a perfect 56-of-56 on PATs. Junior David Scully, who handled kickoffs last season, will likely resume that role and will push Moore for the starting place-kicker job. Poole punted 36 times last season for an average of 39.7 yards. He will have to hold off Ryan Rodwell, a true freshman who comes to Tech on scholarship, and sophomore Michael McDonald. Tech has the luxury of having two dependable longsnappers on the roster. Senior Tyler Morgan handled those duties in 2010. Sophomore Sean Tobin took over as long-snapper last season after Morgan was sidelined with an injury. New special teams coach Dave Walkosky has plenty of options in the return game. Senior Orwin Smith has 62 career kickoff returns for more than 1,300 yards. Sophomore B.J. Bostic returned 28 kicks in 2010. Sophomore speedster Tony Zenon returned nine kicks for 202 yards last year. Both primary punt returners -- sophomore Zach Laskey and junior Jemea Thomas -- are back.
BYTHENUMBERS Special Teams coach Dave Walkosky is the only new member of the Tech coaching staff.

Georgia Tech, in 2011, ranked second in the nation in third-down conversion percentage (53.9 percent). Tevin Washington and Orwin Smith give the Yellow Jackets two career 1,000-yard rushers on the current roster. Two players -- Fred Holton and B.J. Bostic -- are 100 percent healthy after missing all of 2011 with injuries. Last season Georgia Tech scored a touchdown on its first offensive play of the game three times. Yellow Jacket QB Tevin Washington has rushed and passed for more than 100 yards in a game three times in his career. Georgia Tech has four national titles to its credit -- 1990, 1952, 1928 and 1917. There could be four former Jacket wide receivers on NFL rosters in 2012, including second-round draft pick Stephen Hill. Paul Johnson enters his fifth season as head coach of the Yellow Jackets with a 33-19 record. Georgia Tech has been ranked a minimum of one week in the Associated Press poll in each of the last seven seasons. There are just 10 scholarship seniors on the 2012 Georgia Tech roster. Ten true freshmen saw action in the 2011 season -- the most in Paul Johnson’s tenure at Tech. Paul Johnson has won 12 games at Tech decided by four points or less, while losing just four. Johnson is tied for 13th with Alabama’s Nick Saban for the most wins among active FBS coaches. There are 13 returning starters in 2012, including seven on offense and six on defense. Fifteen consecutive years Tech has played in a bowl game, tying for the 4th-longest active streak. The Yellow Jackets have finished .500 or better in ACC play for 17 consecutive seasons. Over the last four seasons combined, Tech has won 21 ACC games, ranking second only to Virginia Tech. Seniors Tevin Washington (18) and Orwin Smith (15) have combined for 33 career rushing TDs. Last season Justin Moore’s 56 PATs set a Tech single-season record. Moore was a perfect 56-of-56. Georgia Tech will celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Yellow Jackets’ 1952 national championship season. The Yellow Jackets return 75 percent of their rushing attack from last year’s team.
GEORGIA TECH FOOTBALL
The 2012 season marks the 60th anniversary of Georgia Tech’s 1952 national championship season. The 1952 team will be honored this year. Georgia Tech set a school record in 2011 for average yards per rushing attempt. The Yellow Jackets averaged 5.74 yards per carry (4,114 yards on 717 attempts).
For his head coaching career, Paul Johnson averages 9.4 wins per year. That ranks ninth among all active FBS coaches.
Tech has played in a bowl game for 15 consecutive seasons. That ranks as the fourth-longest active streak among FBS schools. Tech has finished .500 or better in league play for an ACC-record 17 consecutive seasons. That’s the longest current streak in the nation. Florida’s streak of 24 straight seasons came to an end last season.

Georgia Tech’s Orwin Smith and Duke’s Desmond Scott are the only two active players in the ACC with 1,000+ rushing yards, 500+ receiving yards and 1,000+ kickoff return yards.
The Yellow Jackets’ season opener Sept. 3 at Virginia Tech will mark its first game played on Labor Day. The last time the two Techs were scheduled to open a season – the 2000 BCA Bowl in Blacksburg, Va. – the game was cancelled because of bad weather. The last time the Yellow Jackets opened a season with a conference game came in 1996 at NC State.

PAUL JOHNSON HEAD COACH 5th Season at Georgia Tech (33-19 / .635) 16th Season Overall (140-58 / .707) Western Carolina (1979)
Paul Johnson, a two-time Atlantic Coast Conference Coach of the Year and the mastermind behind Georgia Tech’s high-production offense, enters his fifth season as head coach of the Yellow Jackets. Under Johnson, Georgia Tech was one of college football’s biggest surprise stories in 2008 and played in the ACC championship in 2009. The ACC Coach of the Year in 2008 and 2009, Johnson’s teams have appeared in a bowl game every year since he arrived on the Flats. In four seasons at Tech, Johnson has compiled a record of 33-19, including a 21-11 mark in ACC play. No coach in Tech history won more games than Johnson in their first four seasons. Over the last four seasons combined, only Virginia Tech has won more ACC games than Johnson’s Jackets. In 15 seasons overall as a head coach, Johnson owns a career record of 140-58. His career winning percentage (.707) ranks in the top 10 among active BCS head coaches. Johnson enjoyed success as the head coach at Georgia Southern (1997-2001) and Navy (2002-2007) before being named Georgia Tech’s 12th head coach on Dec. 12, 2007. What Johnson has accomplished at Georgia Tech has been remarkable: In his first two seasons at Tech, Johnson was named the ACC Coach of the Year. He is the first coach to win the award in his first two years in the league. In 2008, he was named National Coach of the Year by CBS Sports. In 2009, the Yellow Jackets played in the ACC title game against Clemson (Tech won the game, but later vacated). Tech played in a BCS bowl game for the first time in 2009. Under Johnson, Tech has averaged nearly nine wins per season. In each of his four seasons at Tech, the Yellow Jackets have ranked in the top five nationally in rushing offense. Tech led the nation in rushing in 2010 and finished second in 2011. Over the last four seasons combined, Tech has averaged more rushing yards per game (301) than any other team. In 29 of Johnson’s 53 games at Georgia Tech, the Yellow Jackets produced more than 400 yards of total offense. In Johnson’s first three seasons, Tech produced four 1,000-yard rushers -- Jonathan Dwyer in 2008, Dwyer and Joshua Nesbitt in 2009, and Anthony Allen in 2010. Over the last four years combined, the Yellow Jackets have produced 13 first team All-ACC selections. Tech has produced two first team All-Americans under Johnson -- Michael Johnson in 2008 and Derrick Morgan in 2009. Since Johnson’s arrival, a Tech player has been named ACC Offensive Player of the Year (Dwyer in 2008)
90
and ACC Defensive Player of the Year (Morgan in 2009). Entering 2012, Johnson is 12-4 at Tech in games decided by five points or less, 7-5 at Tech against nationally-ranked opponents, 13-9 in road games, 31-8 when scoring at least 20 points, and 22-1 when scoring more than 30 points. In 2009, Tech won in Tallahassee (Fla.) for the first time in school history, beat a top-five ranked team at home (Virginia Tech) for the first time since 1962 and won on the road in Charlottesville (Va.) for the first time since 1990. Also in 2009, Tech earned its highest national ranking (7th) since 1999. In 2008, the Jackets broke a seven-year losing skid

to rival Georgia, beating the 13th-ranked Bulldogs, 4542, in Athens (Ga.). Under Johnson, Tech’s Academic Progress Report (APR) scores have risen each of the last four years. In 2011, Georgia Tech exceeded all expectations. After being picked to finish fourth in the ACC Coastal Division, the Yellow Jackets went 8-5, 5-3 in the ACC, and played in a bowl game for the 15th consecutive season. With just 10 scholarship seniors on the roster, Tech bolted to a 6-0 start, setting school, ACC and NCAA records for offense along the way, and rising to as high as 13th in the national polls. In October, the Jackets handed sixth-ranked and eventual ACC champion Clemson a 31-17 loss in Bobby Dodd Stadium, a win that eventually helped Tech earn a bid to the Hyundai Sun Bowl. In 2010, Georgia Tech earned a bowl bid for the 14th consecutive season. The Yellow Jackets, who lost four juniors to the 2010 NFL Draft and played the final four games without injured quarterback Joshua Nesbitt, finished 4-4 in the ACC and led the nation in rushing offense for the first time in school history. Two Yellow Jackets -- senior center Sean Bedford

emy, where he led the Midshipmen to a level of success they had not seen in decades. Johnson’s first head coaching job came at Georgia Southern, where in five seasons he led the Eagles to two I-AA national championships. "Paul Johnson is the best fit, the best choice for the Georgia Tech head coaching position," Georgia Tech athletic director Dan Radakovich said upon Johnson’s hiring. "He will educate young men, represent Georgia Tech at the highest level, he will win football games and play for championships. "He accomplished feats at a Service Academy that many thought were not possible. He looks at his talent and maximizes it. Whether as an assistant coach at Hawai'i, or as the head coach at Georgia Southern or Navy, he has figured out how to be successful." Prior to Johnson’s arrival in Atlanta, he earned unprecedented success at Navy. Johnson coached six years at Navy, where in 2007 the Midshipmen won a fifth straight Commander-InChief's Trophy, earned a postseason bowl bid for the fifth consecutive year and beat Notre Dame for the first time since 1963. Johnson was a finalist for the 2007 Liberty Mutual National Coach of the Year. In six seasons at Navy, Johnson compiled a record of 45-29. Johnson took over a Navy football program that was coming off the worst two-year span in its 123-year history (1-20) and had recorded just two winning seasons in the last 20 years. After a 2-10 mark in Johnson's first year, the Midshipmen achieved what many thought was

Tech’s 22 starters were freshmen or sophomores. He also took over a program low in scholarship numbers, well below the maximum of 85, the lingering effects of distant NCAA penalties. The 2008 team also suffered more than its share of injuries. Twelve opening-day starters combined to miss 31 games because of injuries. In a September road game at defending ACC champion Virginia Tech, the Jackets started a walk-on freshman at wide receiver. A few weeks later, Tech started its third-string quarterback as the result of injuries to starter Joshua Nesbitt and back-up Jaybo Shaw. Almost as soon as Johnson was hired, the pundits questioned if Johnson’s option-based spread offense would work on the BCS level. Those questions came even though Navy racked up mind-numbing offensive numbers, leading the NCAA in rushing three straight years from 2005 to 2007, mostly against ACC and other BCS-level competition. Johnson quieted those critics almost as soon as the 2008 season kicked off and certainly after Tech closed the regular season by combining for 86 points and 881 rushing yards in games against nationally-ranked Miami and Georgia. The Yellow Jackets, with freshmen and sophomores manning every skill position and behind a patch-work offensive line, averaged 273.2 rushing yards per game, ranking fourth nationally and first in the ACC. Georgia Tech also led the ACC in total offense (372.5 ypg). Johnson came to Georgia Tech after previously serving six seasons as head coach of the U.S. Naval Acad-

and senior running back Anthony Allen -- were named first team All-ACC in 2010. The 2009 season was one of the most memorable in Yellow Jacket history despite fielding one of the youngest rosters in college football (just six scholarship seniors). After a mid-September loss at nationally-ranked Miami when the Yellow Jackets played their third game in a 12-day span, Tech reeled off eight consecutive victories including a 5-0 record in October when it played four road games. A convincing 49-10 win at Duke on Nov. 14 clinched the ACC Coastal Division crown, then Tech defeated Clemson for a second time, this time in the ACC Championship Game in Tampa, Fla. That game was later vacated due to NCAA sanctions. Tech, which reached a national ranking as high as seventh, played in the FedEx Orange Bowl, its first appearance in a major bowl game since 1962. Along the way, the Yellow Jackets rolled up mind-boggling numbers on offense, ranking second nationally in rushing offense (295.4 ypg) and third in time of possession (33:49). Prior to the start of the 2008 season, Sports Illustrated projected Georgia Tech to finish 3-9 and the ACC media picked the Yellow Jackets to finish fourth in the Coastal Division. However, Johnson directed Tech to a 9-4 record, a share of the Coastal Division title and a Chick-fil-A Bowl berth. Johnson’s first Yellow Jacket team beat three nationally-ranked opponents – Florida State, Miami and Georgia – over the final four games of the regular season. The win over Georgia snapped a seven-game losing streak to Tech’s in-state rival. Johnson’s first season at Georgia Tech was remarkable for a number of reasons. Not only did he and his staff install completely new offensive and defensive schemes, but Johnson inherited one of the nation’s youngest rosters, which included 76 freshmen and sophomores. The last one-third of the season, 16 of

no longer possible at an Academy. Johnson brought the Midshipmen back into the national spotlight with a 4319 (.694) record over his last four-plus years. Johnson dominated the other two Service Academies like no other coach in the school's annals, posting an 11-1 (.917) overall record, including a perfect 6-0 mark against rival Army. His 2007 senior class was the first in school history to post a perfect 8-0 mark against Army and Air Force. Johnson's Navy teams improved as each season progressed. Over his last five years, Navy posted a 132 (.867) record over the final three games of the season and outscored the opposition 611-335 in those contests. In games in which Johnson had more than a week to prepare for an opponent, the Midshipmen went 15-6 (.714) over his last four years combined. The Midshipmen led the nation in rushing in 2007 for an unprecedented third consecutive year, producing more than 350 yards per game. Under Johnson, Navy never finished lower than third nationally in rushing offense. Navy ranked among the nation's highest-scoring teams in 2007, averaging 39.92 points per outing. The 2007 Mids also ranked in the top 10 nationally in kickoff returns and in fewest sacks allowed. Johnson's teams have been successful off the field as well. Navy ranked No. 1 in the country in graduation rates during Johnson’s tenure. In 2004, Johnson was named Bobby Dodd National Coach of the Year after leading Navy to a 10-2 record, tying the school record for wins set in 1905, and won a bowl game (34-19 victory vs. New Mexico in the Emerald Bowl) for just the fifth time in the history of the program. In 2003, Johnson led Navy to an 8-5 record and brought the Commander-In-Chief's Trophy back to Annapolis for the first time since 1981, propelling Navy to a bowl game for the first time since 1996. The Mids became just the sixth team in NCAA history to go from a winless season to a bowl game in two years or less. Before arriving at Annapolis, Johnson served as head coach at Georgia Southern from 1997 to 2001. At Georgia Southern, Johnson posted a 62-10 (.861) record, won two straight I-AA National Championships (1999
and 2000), five consecutive Southern Conference Championships and was named the Division I-AA National Coach of the Year four straight years (1997-2000). After Johnson took over as head coach at Georgia Southern in 1997, he returned the Eagle program to national prominence statistically and in the won-lost ledger. In addition to Georgia Southern's 62-10 mark, the Eagles scored 2,855 points (39.7 points per game), picked up 25,941 rushing yards (360.3 yards per game), 7,816 passing yards (108.6 yards per game) and 33,757 total yards (468.8 yards per game). GSU scored 380 touchdowns in the Johnson era, an average of 5.3 per game. The Eagles' scoring margin under Johnson was +21.5 (39.7-18.5). Johnson picked up a milestone victory in the 2000 IAA National Championship Game against Montana. Not only did the 27-25 victory give Georgia Southern its second straight national title, but it was also Johnson's 50th career win in four seasons. Only three other coaches in the history of Division I football won 50 or more games in four seasons -- Walter Camp (1888-1891, 54-2 at Yale), George Woodruff (1892-1895, 53-4 at Penn) and Bob Pruett (1996-99, 50-4 at Marshall). Johnson took over a Georgia Southern program in 1997 that was 4-7 the previous year and orchestrated a turnaround that ranked among the NCAA's best, directing the Eagles to a 10-3 record. He was named Southern Conference Coach of the Year by the media and Region II Coach of the Year by the American Football Coaches Association. In 1998, Johnson guided the Eagles to a perfect 110 regular season record and the school's sixth NCAA Division I-AA National Championship Game appearance before finishing with a 14-1 mark. He directed a highpowered offensive unit that tied or broke 100 records during the campaign, again earned the league's top coaching honor and received The Sports Network's Eddie Robinson Award -- symbolic of the division's national Coach of the Year selection. In 1999, Johnson brought Georgia Southern its fifth national title, and the Eagles finished 13-2 while breaking 197 records. For his efforts, Johnson was honored

TEAM STATS UNDER PAUL JOHNSON
INTRODUCTION
as the 1999 AFCA and Chevrolet I-AA National Coach of the Year. Johnson duplicated the feat in the 2000 season as the Eagles repeated as national champions, again finishing 13-2, and Johnson captured the AFCA IAA Coach of the Year award once more. In five seasons at Georgia Southern, Johnson's squads broke or tied 379 individual and team school, conference, playoff or stadium records, ranked in the top 10 in 21 statistical categories and produced 31 AllAmericans. The Eagles won an NCAA I-AA-record 39 consecutive games at home. Meanwhile, their 52 wins
over those four seasons were the most in all of Division I. Johnson was previously Navy's offensive coordinator in 1995 and 1996, and his spread offense made an immediate impact, breaking five school records during the Mids' five-win season in 1995. Navy posted a 9-3 record the next season in 1996, including a 42-38 victory over California in the Aloha Bowl. It was Navy's first winning season since 1982 and one of only two winning seasons the Mids had during a 19-year span. Prior to joining the Navy staff, Johnson spent eight seasons as the offensive coordinator at the University of Hawai'i (1987-94). He helped guide the Rainbows to their first Western Athletic Conference title and their first bowl appearance, coordinating an explosive offense that broke or equaled more than 160 school records. While at Hawai'i, Johnson developed a successful offensive unit which earned top-20 I-A statistical rankings in scoring offense, total offense and rushing offense during six of his eight seasons. He earned top offensive coach honors in the WAC and was named one of the top 10 assistant coaches in the country by The Sporting News. After first arriving at Georgia Southern in 1983 as defensive line coach, Johnson was promoted to offensive coordinator in 1985. Under his tutelage, recordsetting quarterback Tracy Ham and the Eagle offense re-wrote the school record book while averaging 435 total yards and 36 points per contest. Georgia Southern rolled to a combined 26-4 record and captured a pair of I-AA titles in 1985-86. Johnson's coaching career began when he was offensive coordinator and line coach at his alma mater, Avery County (N.C.) High School, in 1979-80. He accepted the offensive coordinator's position at LeesMcRae Junior College in 1981, leading his offensive unit to a sixth-place national standing among NJCAA total offense leaders. Johnson, a native of Newland, N.C., earned his bachelor's degree in physical education from Western Carolina in 1979 and a Master's degree in health and physical education from Appalachian State in 1982. He and wife, Susan, are the parents of a daughter, Kaitlyn.

HISTORY
BRIAN BOHANNON Quarterbacks/B-Backs Coach 5th Season at Georgia Tech Georgia (1993)
Brian Bohannon, coach of the quarterbacks and Bbacks, enters his fifth season at Georgia Tech and his 16th year working with Yellow Jacket head coach Paul Johnson. Since Bohannon’s arrival at Tech, the Yellow Jackets have finished no lower than fourth nationally in rushing offense. Tech ranked second in the nation in rushing last season and in 2010 the Jackets led the nation for the first time in school history. Last season Tech led the ACC in rushing offense, scoring offense and total offense en route to an appearance in the Hyundai Sun Bowl. Under Bohannon, four players have rushed for more than 1,000 yards in a season -- B-back Jonathan Dwyer in 2008, Dwyer and quarterback Joshua Nesbitt in 2009, and B-back Anthony Allen in 2010. Quarterback Tevin Washington finished just 14 yards shy of 1,000 last season. Dwyer was a first-team All-ACC selection in 2008 and 2009. Nesbitt was the first team All-ACC QB in 2009, and Allen was first-team all-conference in 2010. Bohannon helped Washington emerge from a backup quarterback in 2010 to one of the ACC’s most productive signal-callers in 2011. Washington’s 986 rushing yards were the second-most ever by a Tech QB and his passing efficiency (155.4) was the third-highest in Yellow Jacket history. Bohannon helped Nesbitt develop from a running specialist out of the shotgun into one of the nation’s premier dual threat quarterbacks. Nesbitt completed his career in 2010 as the most prolific rushing quarterback in ACC history. He also owns the ACC record for career rushing touchdowns by a QB. Nesbitt likely would have become just the eighth player in NCAA history to rush and pass for 3,000 career yards if not for an injury that cost him the final four games of the 2010 season. Before arriving at Georgia Tech, Bohannon spent six years as wide receivers coach at Navy. Bohannon was part of a staff that returned the Midshipmen to the national spotlight. Navy won 35 games over four years, earning a school-record four consecutive postseason bowl berths and a school-best four straight Commander-In-Chief’s Trophies. Under Bohannon, Navy’s receiving corps emerged as outstanding receivers as well as skilled blockers. In 2007, Navy’s offense put up remarkable numbers. The Midshipmen ranked first nationally in rushing (348.8 ypg), 10th in scoring (39.3 ppg), 22nd in total offense (444.1 ypg) and ninth in sacks allowed (1.08 pg). In 2005, Bohannon helped the Mids rushing attack average a nation's best 318.7 yards per contest as Navy went to a bowl game for a third straight year, won a second consecutive bowl game and won the CommanderIn-Chief's Trophy for a third-straight year. In 2004, Bohannon's efforts helped the wide receiver corps to perform well enough for the Midshipmen to finish 45th in the country in total offense (388.8 yards per game), third in rushing offense (289.5), win a school-
96
record-tying 10 games (the most wins since 1905), win the Emerald Bowl and claim the Commander-In-Chief's Trophy. In 2003, he helped the Mids lead the nation in rushing (323.2 yards per contest) and set school records for rushing yards per game, total rushing yards (4,202), rushing yards per attempt (5.5), rushing touchdowns (44), total offense (5,506), total offense per game (423.5) and yards per play (6.0). In 2002, Navy had the third-best rushing average in the country (270.75) and scored 30 or more points on four occasions. Bohannon coached the wide receivers for three seasons (1997-99) at Georgia Southern before taking over the defensive backs his last two years (2000-01). During his initial season as defensive backs coach, the secondary played a key role in Georgia Southern's efforts, ranking 18th nationally in pass defense (156.1 yards per game) and 28th in interceptions (16). The Eagles' secondary took another leap forward in 2001, finishing second nationally in pass defense (125.6 yards per game), fourth in scoring defense (12.0 points per game) and sixth in total defense (261.4 yards per game).

He is married to the former Melanie Cobb and they have three children, sons Blake Patrick and Braden Thomas, and daughter Brooke Anna.

Al Groh, who enjoyed success as a head coach on both the collegiate and NFL levels for many years, embarks on his third season at Georgia Tech as the Yellow Jackets’ defensive coordinator. In 2011, Groh’s second year on the Flats, Tech improved its national ranking in every defensive category. The Yellow Jackets ranked second in the ACC and 28th nationally in pass defense and recorded 14 interceptions (six more than the previous season). Tech held eventual ACC champion Clemson to just 95 yards rushing and forced four Tiger turnovers. In his first season at Georgia Tech in 2010, Groh overhauled the Yellow Jacket defense, installing the 34 scheme. Tech made significant improvement in its pass defense from the previous season and the defense played major roles in narrow road victories at North Carolina and Wake Forest. Groh’s first defensive unit at Tech was a youthful
bunch, illustrated by four true freshmen who saw significant action. Groh came to the Flats after serving nine seasons as head coach at Virginia, where he not only made the Cavaliers competitive on the national stage, but helped completely change the environment and culture surrounding the football program in Charlottesville. Groh earned coach of the year honors in three of his nine years at Virginia. He was named the ACC Coach of the Year in 2002 and 2007 and the American Football Coaches Association's Regional Coach of the Year in 2004. After taking over the Virginia program in 2001, the Cavaliers won 59 games and appeared in five bowl games. Groh guided the 2007 squad to a 9-4 record and a berth in the Konica Minolta Gator Bowl while earning ACC Coach of the Year laurels for the second time in his career. In 2008 the list of players to earn AllACC honors under Groh grew to 53, including first-team selections by tackle Eugene Monroe and tight end John Phillips. Monroe became the second Cavalier during Groh's tenure to receive the Jacobs Blocking Trophy as

the ACC's top lineman, joining two-time winner Elton Brown. He and Clint Sintim were named to various AllAmerica teams, becoming the 10th and 11th Cavaliers to earn that distinction under Groh. The 2007 season marked the fifth time during his first seven years on Grounds that Groh led UVa to a bowl game. During that span his teams came away victorious three times, including a dramatic 34-31 win against Minnesota in the Gaylord Hotels Music City Bowl in 2005. In 2007 Chris Long became the program's third unanimous All-American, the Ted Hendricks Award winner, the ACC Defensive Player of the Year and later went on to be taken second overall in the NFL Draft, joining offensive guard Branden Albert as a first-round pick. When he was named the program's head coach on Dec. 30, 2000, Groh traded in a high-profile NFL headcoaching job with the New York Jets for an opportunity to return to Virginia. He succeeded George Welsh, who retired after 19 seasons at the helm of the Cavaliers, as the winningest coach in ACC and school history. In 2006 the youthful Cavaliers finished 5-7 overall with impressive wins over NC State and Miami. Four Cavaliers earned All-ACC accolades, including secondteam honorees CB Marcus Hamilton and DE Chris Long.

'Hoos, were named to The Sporting News' Freshman All-American team. Fitzgerald was also named to the Rivals.com first team Freshman All-America squad. Virginia finished the 2005 regular season at 6-5, including upsets of No.4 Florida State and No. 24 Georgia Tech. That season also marked just the second time in the program's history that UVa received a bowl invitation in four consecutive seasons. Virginia concluded the 2004 season at 8-4 (5-3 ACC) and made its third consecutive bowl appearance. The Cavaliers led the ACC in rushing offense, total offense, first downs and third-down conversions, and set a school record with 34 rushing touchdowns. Groh was honored by his peers as the 2004 AFCA Regional Coach of the Year. In 2003, the Cavaliers were nationally ranked all season and finished 23rd in the final Associated Press poll. Virginia finished 8-5 (4-4 ACC) and celebrated a return trip to the Continental Tire Bowl with a 23-16 win over Pittsburgh. With the victory, Virginia claimed consecutive bowl championships for just the second time in school history. During his second season at the helm in 2002, Groh led the Cavaliers to a 9-5 overall record (6-2 ACC, tied for second), including a 48-22 triumph over No. 15 West Virginia in the Continental Tire Bowl. With the bowl victory, Virginia clinched its first season of nine-or-more wins since 1998 and the sixth in school history. UVa was ranked 22nd in the final Associated Press poll, the team's highest final ranking since 1998. Virginia was picked to finish eighth in the conference in the 2002 preseason. Named the 2002 ACC Coach of Year, Groh became only the second coach in UVa history to lead the Cavaliers to a bowl game. At the same time, approximately two thirds of Virginia's 2002 roster was comprised of sophomores and either true or redshirt freshmen. A total of 14 true freshmen and eight redshirt freshmen saw action for the 2002 Cavaliers, with as many as 10 freshmen starting at times during the season. In addition to its bowl victory over West Virginia, Virginia claimed three other wins over ranked opponents in 2002. Among them were back-to-back victories over No. 22 NC State (14-9) and No. 18 Maryland (48-13) in November. The Cavaliers also defeated No. 22 South Carolina 34-21 earlier in the season. Following his first season at Virginia, Groh was chosen defensive head coach of the Gray team in the 64th Annual Blue-Gray All-Star Football Classic, held Dec. 25, 2001, in Montgomery, Ala. He was named head coach of the New York Jets before the start of the 2000 season and led that franchise to a 9-7 record in his one year at the helm. During the season, the Jets staged the "Monday Night Miracle" by overcoming a 30-7 fourth-quarter deficit to beat Miami 40-37 in overtime. Groh previously coached in two Super Bowls as an assistant under Bill Parcells, winning an NFL championship ring with the 1990 New York Giants in Super Bowl XXV and later going to Super Bowl XXXI with the 1996 New England Patriots. In addition to serving one season as the Jets' head coach, Groh coached the linebackers for the Jets under Parcells for three years, from 1997-99. Groh moved with Parcells when Parcells resigned as head coach of the New England Patriots to take over as the Jets' head coach in 1997. During Groh's tenure at New England, where he served as defensive coordinator, the Patriots' defense improved yearly in nearly every category and ranked among the league's best in takeaways, yards allowed and points allowed. The Patriots finished with an 11-5 record in 1996, winning the AFC championship and playing the Green Bay Packers in Super Bowl XXXI. Chris Slade, a former All-America linebacker at Virginia, was among the many defensive standouts whom Groh coached at New England. Groh's other NFL coaching stops include one season as linebackers coach on Bill Belichick's staff with the Cleveland Browns (1992) and one season with the Atlanta Falcons (1987) as special teams and tight ends coach for Marion Campbell.

He began his coaching career as an assistant football coach at Charlottesville's Albemarle High School in 1967. The following year, he moved to Tom Cahill's staff at Army where he was the defensive coach for the plebe squad and worked with Parcells for the first time in his career. Groh returned to UVa in 1970 to serve as the head coach of the freshman team and as the defensive line coach through the 1972 season. From 1973-77, Groh served as an assistant at North Carolina where he coached Lawrence Taylor, whom he later coached with the Giants. He joined Parcells at Air Force in 1978 as defensive coordinator before moving to Texas Tech in 1980 and becoming head coach at Wake Forest in 1981. While at Wake Forest, Groh guided the program to only its second winning season in 13 years with a 6-5 record in 1984. During his tenure, the school produced one first-team All-American, 12 first-team All-ACC selections, 15 All-ACC academic selections, one ACC Rookie of the Year and one Jacobs Blocking Trophy recipient. Groh also helped develop 14 players who would later go on to play in the NFL, the most concentrated group of pro players produced in Demon Deacon history to that point. Between his NFL coaching jobs with the Falcons and Giants, Groh served as offensive coordinator at South Carolina in 1988. A legendary example of Groh's ability to motivate and inspire his players occurred during the 1994 season at New England, where the Patriots had gotten off to a 3-6 start. Groh decided he would grab an old shovel from his garage and bring it to work the next day.
He is known to have told the players: “See this shovel men? This is how we're going to get out of this thing. Everyone take a shovel, and you dig one shovelful at a time:' The Patriots didn't lose another game that regular season, reaching the playoffs for the first time under Parcells. Groh brought his shovel to every game, keeping it on the sidelines as a reminder of what it took to overcome adversity. A 1967 graduate of UVa's McIntire School of Commerce, Groh was a member of the varsity football team from 1963-65, playing under Bill Elias and George Blackburn. He lettered at defensive end in 1965.He also lettered as a defenseman on the Cavalier lacrosse team. Groh was born in New York City and grew up on Long Island. He attended Chaminade High School in Mineola, N.Y., where he was a standout athlete and earned All-Metropolitan honors in football. His oldest son Mike was the starting quarterback at Virginia in 1994 and 1995. Groh and his wife, Anne, are the parents of two sons, Mike and Matthew, and a daughter, Ashley Anne. Matthew played quarterback at Princeton and is a graduate of Virginia's School of Law. He is currently in the personnel department of the New England Patriots. Mike was on Nick Saban’s staff at Alabama in both 2009 and 2011 when the Crimson Tide won the national championship. In between, he coached the quarterbacks at Louisville in 2010. Mike played quarterback at Virginia and later served as an assistant coach and offensive coordinator for the Cavaliers. The Grohs have two grandsons -- Cameron and Conner.

Charles Kelly begins his seventh season at Georgia Tech, his fifth season under head coach Paul Johnson and his third season as coach of the secondary. Kelly took over responsibility for the secondary in 2010 after coaching the cornerbacks in 2008 and 2009. Over the last four seasons, Georgia Tech has recorded 52 interceptions. In 2008, the Yellow Jackets recorded 18 INTs, including three by true freshman cornerback Rashaad Reid, who was a second team Freshmen All-American. In 2008, Tech ranked in the top 30 nationally in total defense and scoring defense. In 2009, Kelly helped develop a number of cornerbacks including Mario Butler, a 14-game starter, and Jerrard Tarrant, who picked off two passes, including one for a touchdown in the FedEx Orange Bowl. Tarrant was responsible for all four of Tech’s non-offensive touchdowns in 2009. In 2010, Butler and Tarrant both returned interceptions for touchdowns. Butler and Tarrant were invited to the NFL Combine. Last season Kelly inherited four new starters in the secondary and molded that youthful unit into a group that helped Georgia Tech rank second in the ACC and 28th nationally in pass defense. With just one senior among the starters, Tech recorded 14 interceptions in 2011, six more than the previous season. Kelly, a former defensive coordinator at three different schools, served as the Yellow Jackets’ special teams coordinator in 2006 and 2007. He was instrumental in making Georgia Tech into one of the nation’s best special teams units in 2007. That group went from 119th in the nation in kick return defense in 2006 to second in 2007. Under Kelly’s guidance, punter Durant Brooks and place-kicker Travis Bell each earned first team All-ACC accolades. Brooks earned the prestigious Ray Guy Award in 2007 and recorded the highest career punting average in ACC history. In Kelly’s first year in 2006, Brooks earned secondteam All-America and first-team All-ACC honors. With the combination of Brooks and outstanding coverage, Tech ranked second in the nation in net punting. Brooks averaged better than 45 yards per punt, and almost half of his kicks pinned the opponent inside the 20-yard line. Kelly spent the previous four seasons at Nicholls State, an NCAA Division I-AA program that captured the Southland Conference title in 2005. Under Kelly, who served as defensive backs coach during his first two seasons at Nicholls, the Colonels finished as the top-ranked defense in the Southland Conference in 2005 and 17th in NCAA Division I-AA. Nicholls led the Southland in total defense and rushing defense, while ranking second in scoring defense. Kelly was instrumental in developing two-time AllAmerica cornerback Chris Thompson, who was drafted in 2004 by the Jacksonville Jaguars. Kelly went to Nicholls State in 2002 from Eufaula (Ala.) High School, where he served as defensive coordinator and linebackers coach for two seasons. Prior to

Recruiting Coordinator Defensive Line Coach 3rd Season at Georgia Tech Austin Peay State (1981)
Andy McCollum, who has been an assistant or head coach in college football for 30 years, enters his third season at Georgia Tech as recruiting coordinator and coach of the defensive line. A native of Marietta (Ga.), McCollum, who supervises Tech’s recruiting efforts, is one of three former head coaches on the Yellow Jacket staff. Last season, McCollum’s defensive line helped the Yellow Jackets improve statistically in rushing defense, pass defense, pass efficiency defense and total defense from the previous season. Under McCollum’s guidance, starters Jason Peters and Logan Walls enjoyed outstanding senior seasons and junior end Izaan Cross emerged as a potential All-ACC candidate in 2012. In his first season at Georgia Tech, McCollum worked closely with defensive coordinator Al Groh to install the 3-4 defense. Faced with the task of players learning a completely new system, McCollum helped mold the defensive line into a solid front. McCollum came to the Flats after serving three seasons (2007-09) as linebackers coach at NC State, where he was a part of Wolfpack head coach Tom O’Brien’s initial coaching staff. NC State participated in the 2008 Papajohns.com Bowl. Prior to his tenure at NC State, McCollum spent one season in the NFL as an advance scout for the Tennessee Titans in 2006. McCollum served as head coach at Middle Tennessee State for seven seasons (1999-2005), helping the Blue Raider program make the transition from a struggling I-AA squad to a successful I-A program that competed against BCS opponents 24 times during his tenure. MTSU, which appears on the Tech schedule this fall, set 84 school records with McCollum at the helm. In 2000, McCollum led the Blue Raiders to a 6-5 record, their first winning record as a I-A program, including back-to-back wins over Connecticut and South Florida by a combined score of 111-19. His 2001 MTSU squad finished 8-3, won the Sun Belt Conference championship, and ranked fifth nationally in offense. In 2005, the Blue Raider defense ranked ninth nationally. In 2002, 2004 and 2005 he brought in what were considered the top recruiting classes in the Sun Belt Conference. McCollum was named Coach of the Year by the Tennessee Sports Writers Association in 2000 and 2001. From 1994 to 1998, McCollum worked at Baylor in a variety of roles. In 1995 and 1996 he served as associate head coach, defensive coordinator and coach of the special teams. In ’94, the Bears participated in the Alamo Bowl. In 1995, the Bear defense ranked fifth nationally in total defense, fifth in pass defense and ninth in scoring defense. From 1989 to 1992, McCollum worked as an assistant coach at UTEP. He coached the Miners’ wide receivers and special teams in 1989 before moving over to defense to coach the linebackers and special teams from 1990-93. From 1981 to 1988, McCollum was an assistant

HISTORY
AL “BUZZ” PRESTON Wide Receivers Coach 5th Season at Georgia Tech Hawai’i (1982)
Al “Buzz” Preston, who has enjoyed success from Honolulu to South Bend, begins his fifth season in Atlanta as Georgia Tech’s wide receivers coach. In just four seasons on the Flats, Preston has developed three NFL wide receivers -- Demaryius Thomas (Denver Broncos), Stephen Hill (New York Jets) and Kevin Cone (Atlanta Falcons). Thomas was an NFL first-round draft pick in 2010, while Hill was chosen early in the second round in 2012. Thomas, who made remarkable strides under Preston, left Tech as one of the most prolific receivers in Georgia Tech history. In just three seasons Thomas caught 120 passes for 2,339 yards (fourth-most in Tech history) while averaging 19.5 yards per reception. Thomas had 15 career touchdown receptions and caught at least one pass in 29 consecutive games. Hill collected more than 1,200 career receiving yards to go with nine touchdown receptions. As a junior in 2011, he led the nation in yards per reception (29.3). Hill teamed with Tyler Melton last season to give Tech a solid senior duo at wide receiver. Preston also groomed a pair of true freshmen -- Darren Waller and Jeff Greene -- as potential standouts in the near future. Since Preston’s arrival, Tech has led the ACC in total offense three times (2008, 2009 and 2011). Preston came to Tech after serving one season at New Mexico, where he helped lead the Lobos to their first bowl victory in more than 45 years. As New Mexico’s running backs coach in 2007, Preston coached Lobo junior running back Rodney Ferguson, who earned first team All-Mountain West Conference honors for the second straight year after rushing for 1,177 yards and 13 touchdowns. Preston has 32 seasons of collegiate coaching experience, including two stints at Stanford (1999-2001, 2006). During his first three-year run with the Cardinal, Preston was part of two bowl teams that were also two of the best squads in Stanford history. He helped coach the Cardinal to the 1999 Pac-10 title on its way to the 2000 Rose Bowl. In 2001, Stanford put together a 9-3 record and was ranked among the top 10 teams in the nation during the year before playing in the Seattle Bowl against Georgia Tech. Following his three seasons at Stanford, Preston went with coach Tyrone Willingham to Notre Dame for three more seasons (2002-04) to coach the running backs and serve as special teams coordinator. He helped lead the Irish to two bowl games with appearances in the Gator Bowl in 2002 and the Insight Bowl following the 2003 regular season. Under Preston's tutelage, Julius Jones rushed for 1,268 yards and 10 touchdowns as a senior at Notre Dame in 2003. Jones also had 1,568 all-purpose yards and a school-record three 200-yard rushing games in '03 en route to honorable mention All-America honors. Jones went on to be selected in the second round of the 2004 NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys. In 2002, Irish running back Ryan Grant eclipsed the 1,000-yard mark as well.
102
Before coming to Stanford for the first time, Preston was the assistant head coach and offensive coordinator/QB coach at UNLV in 1998. Prior to that, he coached running backs at Washington State from 1994-97. During his four-year term at Washington State, Preston was part of a coaching staff that guided the Cougars to the Pac-10 Conference championship in 1997 and its first Rose Bowl appearance in 67 years. The Cougar offense broke the Pac-10 record for most total yards in a single season. One of Preston's pupils, Mike Black, gained 1,157 yards rushing and was named All-Pac 10. The Cougars finished 10-2 overall and were ranked ninth in the nation.
Preston also coached at his alma mater, Hawai'i, from 1987-93, when he served on the same coaching staff with Paul Johnson. He had several roles during his tenure with the Rainbows, including coaching the offensive special teams, receivers and defensive backs, while also serving as the strength and conditioning liaison. Preston's seven-year stay at Hawai'i was highlighted by the first two bowl games in school history and the first Western Athletic Conference title ever for the program. In 1989, Hawai'i participated in its first bowl game, losing to Michigan State in the Aloha Bowl. The Rainbows won the WAC championship in 1992 and went on to defeat Illinois in the Holiday Bowl. Preston's first full-time coaching job came at Southern Illinois from 1984-86 when he tutored receivers and the defensive backfield. During his three seasons in Carbondale, SIU's defense improved dramatically -from eighth to second in the conference -- while nine of his pupils received all-conference recognition. He was a graduate assistant at Hawai'i in 1980 and 1981, a part-time coach at UH in 1982, and a graduate assistant at Washington in 1983. During his career, Preston has also been a guest coach for the Toronto Argonauts, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Miami Dolphins and Philadelphia Eagles. A native of Los Angeles, Preston received a bachelor's degree in speech from Hawai'i in 1982. He was a two-year letterwinner (1978-79) with the Rainbow football team. Preston is a 1975 graduate of Banning High School in Los Angeles. Preston and his wife, Audrey, have three children: Amber, Evan and Quinn.

helped turn around a struggling program at Ohio University as offensive coordinator and offensive line coach under current Wake Forest head coach Jim Grobe in 1995 and 1996. The Bobcats, after going 0-11 prior to Sewak’s arrival, went 2-8-1 in ’95 before posting a 6-6 record in 1996 – the school’s best mark since 1982. Sewak directed an offensive unit which ranked first in the Mid-America Conference in rushing with a 274.0 per game average. Prior to Ohio, Sewak spent eight years as an assistant coach at Hawai’i, where he coached the Warriors’ offensive line for seven seasons and the wide receivers for one. During his tenure in Honolulu, Hawai’i won the 1992 Western Athletic Conference championship, broke more than 150 offensive records, and finished among the nation's offensive leaders each year, averaging 31.7 points and 418 yards per game. Sewak’s first stint at Georgia Southern came as an assistant coach with the Eagles in 1985 and 1986 when he worked under coach Erk Russell. Sewak coached the running backs and the defensive backs on national championship teams in 1985 and 1986, respectively. The Eagles captured their first two NCAA Division I-AA titles those seasons, recording consecutive 13-2 records. Sewak’s first association with Georgia Tech came in 1984 when he served as a graduate assistant tight ends coach under head coach Bill Curry. A native of Johnstown, Pa., Sewak began his career in 1982 at Hobart (N.Y.) College where he served as offensive coordinator and offensive line coach. A three-year letterman as an offensive lineman at Virginia, Sewak earned a degree in psychology from UVa in 1981. He was invited to tryouts with the Baltimore Colts and Pittsburgh Steelers after the completion of his collegiate playing eligibility. Sewak added a masters degree in the spring of 2008 from Georgia Southern. He and his wife, the former Robin Farmery of Marietta, Ga., are the parents of three children -- Michael Robert, Olivia and Nicholas.

Mike Sewak, who has coached on the college level for 28 years including four years as head coach at Georgia Southern, enters his fifth year at Georgia Tech as coach of the offensive line. Sewak, in his first four seasons at Tech, worked primarily with the guards and centers. Since Sewak arrived at Tech in 2008, five Yellow Jacket offensive linemen have earned first-team All-ACC honors: Andrew Gardner in 2008, Sean Bedford and Cord Howard in 2009, Bedford in 2010 and Omoregie Uzzi in 2011. Also last season, Uzzi earned second team All-American honors. Bedford, who came to Georgia Tech as a walk-on defensive lineman, blossomed under Sewak into a two-time first team All-ACC performer. Over the last four years, the offensive line has helped pave the way for remarkable numbers put up by the Yellow Jackets. Tech led the ACC in total offense in 2008, 2009 and 2011. In 2009, the Jackets ranked second nationally in rushing offense. In 2010, Tech ranked first nationally in rushing for the first time in school history. In 2011, the Yellow Jackets ranked second in the nation. Sewak, Johnson’s offensive coordinator at Georgia Southern from 1997 to 2001, replaced Johnson as head coach of the Eagles in 2002. He produced a record of 3514 as Georgia Southern’s head coach and led the Eagles to three NCAA Division I-AA playoffs appearances and two Southern Conference championships. He was named the 2004 Southern Conference Coach of the Year. In his first season as head coach in 2002, Sewak led Georgia Southern to the I-AA semifinals and within a lastsecond missed field goal of the national championship game. The Eagles finished the season with an 11-3 record, won the school’s sixth consecutive league title and made their fifth straight national semifinals appearance. In addition, Sewak’s offense led the nation in rushing, averaging 386.2 yards per game. Georgia Southern followed with an uncharacteristic 74 mark in 2003, a season which saw Sewak valiantly sidestep adversity and numerous key injuries to guide GSU to victories in six of its last eight games and earn his second straight rushing title as a head coach with a 335.6 yards per game average. Sewak put GSU back on track in 2004. Georgia Southern rolled through the regular season with an offensive juggernaut, averaging 47 points per game and winning eight games in a row between losses to I-A Georgia and Southern Conference co-champion Furman, the No. 2 ranked team in I-AA. While young on both sides of the ball in 2005, Georgia Southern led I-AA in rushing again. After a 1-2 start, the Eagles won seven of their last eight games to clinch an atlarge playoff bid. The only loss during that stretch was to Appalachian State, the Southern Conference champion and the No. 2 seed in the I-AA playoffs. Sewak also led the Eagles to a win over Furman when the Paladins were ranked No. 1 in the country.

Now in his seventh year as Director of Athletics, Dan Radakovich has helped take a Georgia Tech program rich in athletic tradition to a higher level of excellence. Since Radakovich arrived on the Flats in 2006, Georgia Tech has competed for conference and national championships across the board, Yellow Jacket student-athletes have excelled in the classroom and Tech’s facilities rate among the finest in the nation. The 2011-12 academic year was another extremely successful campaign in Georgia Tech athletics: The Yellow Jackets captured three ACC championships -- golf, softball and baseball. Tech participated in NCAA postseason play in
women’s basketball, golf, women’s tennis, softball and baseball. The football team exceeded all expectations by winning eight games, knocking off sixth-ranked and eventual ACC champion Clemson along the way, and participated in a bowl game for the 15th straight year. The women’s basketball program enjoyed its finest season, advancing to the ACC Tournament title game and to the NCAA Sweet 16. Baseball overcame numerous injuries and became the first No. 8 seed to win the ACC Tournament crown, earning an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. Softball continued its path as the ACC’s most dominant program by winning the conference championship and playing in the NCAA Tournament for the 11th time. Women’s tennis spent the spring ranked in the national polls and earned another NCAA postseason bid. The golf team, playing in one of the nation’s top golf conferences, won its fourth consecutive conference championship. Golf’s Bruce Heppler was named ACC Coach of the Year. Baseball coach Danny Hall won his 1,000th career game in the spring. Softball’s Kelsi Weseman was named ACC Player of the Year for the second straight season. Academically, Georgia Tech’s Academic Progress Report (APR) improved for the fifth consecutive year. In total, Georgia Tech teams have combined to win 14 ACC championships and nine ACC regular season titles in Radakovich’s tenure. In addition, Yellow Jacket teams have combined to make 51 NCAA postseason or bowl appearances and captured a national championship in women’s tennis in 2007. Over the last six years combined, Tech coaches have been named ACC Coach of the Year 13 times and National Coach of the Year three times. Fifty-one studentathletes have been named first team All-American, 13 have been named ACC Player of the Year in their respective sport, and 30 have earned Academic All-America honors from at least one source. The construction of new facilities or upgrades to existing ones has been a focus of Radakovich’s tenure. In October, McCamish Pavilion -- the renovated new home for Georgia Tech men’s and women’s basketball -- will open its doors. In June, ground was broken for the Byers Tennis Complex. In 2011, the John and Mary Brock Indoor Practice Facility was dedicated. Previously under Radakovich’s guidance, Shirley Clements Mewborn Field, home for Tech’s softball program, which was unveiled prior to the start of the 2009 season. The Zelnak Center, a practice facility for Georgia Tech basketball, was in place prior to the start of the 2009-10 season. Other facility upgrades under Radakovich include the transformation of Tech’s former football locker room on the ground floor of the Edge Athletic Center into a new Technology Center, which benefits academic support services for all student-athletes, and cosmetic and functional improvements to Bobby Dodd Stadium.

2012 PREVIEW
With 36 years of experience in intercollegiate athletics, 10 as a Division I athletic director, Wayne Hogan has been Associate Athletic Director at Georgia Tech since August, 2006. Hogan was hired by Georgia Tech Athletics Director Dan Radakovich to oversee the communications and public affairs component of Yellow Jacket Athletics, including oversight of media relations, marketing, sales, video services and television and radio. He also serves as the department’s liaison with Georgia Tech Sports Properties, the department’s multi-media rights-holder, and the Aspire Group, Tech’s fan relationship management team. Hogan serves as the athletic director’s top advisor in all external matters at Georgia Tech. In addition, he has day-to-day oversight of the Institute’s baseball program. Hogan, 56, previously spent two years in the private sector, serving as Vice President for Collegiate Properties with Virtu Development Group, a national sports marketing firm with wide-ranging relationships in college and professional sports. During that time he was based in Tampa, Fla. Hogan has had a stellar career as a collegiate administrator. He was athletic director at the University of Montana from 1995-2004. His accomplishments did not go unnoticed across America, as he was named Division 1-AA West Region AD of the Year by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) in 2003. He also served as President of the 1-AA Athletic Directors Association and Chair of the NCAA’s prestigious 1-AA Football Committee in 2004. Hogan’s leadership style and positive approach have been gleaned from his 35year association with successful college programs, coaches and administrators. In all that time, Hogan has known nothing but victories and championships. Hogan has had an uncanny run of working with successful football programs. At four different schools, Hogan has been a part of 386 Division I football games with a record of 290-91-5. He has been a part of three national championships, 18 bowl appearances and his teams have been in post-season play in 26 consecutive seasons, His nine-year stint at Montana included two football National Championships and more than a dozen conference titles in both men’s and women’s sports. Hogan cut his teeth on a 17-year association with Florida State University. He played an integral role in that program’s rise to one of the nation’s premier athletic programs. In true “rags-to-riches” form, Hogan’s first job at FSU was that of an unpaid student intern in 1975. Twenty years later he became the school’s interim athletics director, overseeing 15 sports and a $28 million budget. During most of his Florida State tenure, Hogan was responsible for all external affairs -- sports information, marketing, promotions and broadcasting. He was charged with negotiating and maintaining the school’s radio and television relationships. Hogan received a Bachelor’s Degree in Communication from Florida State in 1979 and worked briefly with two minor league baseball teams as a broadcaster and public relations specialist. He spent one year with the Houston Astros AAA farm club before moving to Albuquerque and a one-year stint with the Los Angeles Dodgers AAA affiliate. While in Albuquerque, Hogan was coaxed back into collegiate athletics, becoming assistant sports information and marketing director at the University of New Mexico. He returned to Florida State in 1982 as the school’s sports information director. Wayne is married to the former Dawn Dewberry of Treasure Island, Fla., and they have three children: Lindsay, Kelly and J.P. Hogan became a grandfather for the first time in June.

EIGHT WINS, VICTORY OVER ACC CHAMPION CLEMSON, BOWL BERTH HIGHLIGHT 2011 Georgia Tech surpassed all expectations in 2011, winning eight games, beating eventual ACC champion Clemson and advancing to a bowl game for the 15th consecutive season. The Yellow Jackets, 8-5 overall and 5-3 in the ACC (tied for second in the Coastal Division), were picked to finish fourth in the ACC Coastal and most experts projected a win total of five or six games. Tech bolted to a 6-0 start, breaking school, ACC and NCAA records for offense along the way and rising to as high as 13th in the national polls. Following ACC road losses at Virginia and Miami, the Jackets put together one of their best performances of the year in a 31-17 win over sixth-ranked and previously unbeaten Clemson. The Tigers went on to win the ACC title in December. After finishing the regular season with an 8-4 record, Tech was invited to play in the Hyundai Sun Bowl, where it lost 30-27 in overtime to Utah. In hindsight, Tech’s eight wins were impressive considering there were only 11 seniors (10 scholarship seniors) on the roster and injuries to several key players throughout the season. NOTING TECH’S 2011 SEASON With its 15th consecutive bowl appearance, Georgia Tech tied for the fourth-longest active streak nationally. The Yellow Jackets trail only Florida State (30), Florida (21) and Virginia Tech (19). The Yellow Jackets made their 40th bowl appearance overall. Tech was ranked in the Associated Press top 25 for eight different weeks, rising to as high as 13th. The Jackets have been ranked in the AP poll, for at least one week, for seven consecutive seasons. The Yellow Jackets finished second nationally in rushing offense (316.46 ypg) -- the fourth consecutive year Tech has finished fourth or higher in that category. Tech finished ranked in the top 20 nationally in 10 different categories, including second in third-down percentage (53.85). Georgia Tech was one of just four FBS schools to rush for more than 300 yards per game, and the Yellow Jackets were one of seven teams that converted at least 50 percent of their third-down attempts. The Yellow Jackets led the ACC in rushing offense, scoring offense, total offense, red-zone offense, third-down percentage and fewest sacks allowed. The Jackets were just 36 yards shy of 6,000 yards of total offense for the season. Georgia Tech ranked 14th nationally in pass efficiency (154.31). In 2010, the Jackets were near the bottom of the pack, ranking 113th in efficiency (102.00). Tech junior guard Omoregie Uzzi was named second team All-American by SI.com and third team All-American by Rivals. He became the first Yellow Jacket since 2009 and the third Tech offensive lineman to earn All-American honors since 2000. Uzzi (first team) and junior LB Julian Burnett (second team) were named AllACC. Junior CB Rod Sweeting and sophomore OLB Jeremiah Attaochu were honorable mention All-ACC.

Tech reached eight wins for the third time in Paul Johnson’s four seasons as head coach. Tech produced seven touchdown drives of 90 yards or longer, which were the most by any team nationally. The Jackets had seven TD drives of seven minutes or longer and 16 TD drives consisting of 10 plays or more. The Yellow Jackets produced eight one-play touchdown drives. In 2010, Tech had zero. The Jackets had 79 plays of 20-plus yards, 24 plays of 40-plus yards and six plays of 70-plus yards. Thirty-four different players started at least one game. Tech played the entire season without a pair of injured sophomores who figured to be solid contributors -- safety Fred Holton and A-back B.J. Bostic. The Jackets failed to produce a 1,000-yard rusher for the first time in Johnson’s tenure, although junior quarterback Tevin Washington finished just 14 yards shy and the B-back position, collectively, rushed for 1,175. Despite no single-season 1,000-yard rushers, four players -- Washington, junior Orwin Smith and seniors Roddy Jones and Embry Peeples -- eclipsed 1,000 career rushing yards. Smith averaged 10.1 yards per carry and rushed for a touchdown once every 5.5 carries (11 TDs, 61 attempts). Nine of junior Stephen Hill’s 28 receptions were 40 yards or longer, including three 70 yards or longer. Hill averaged more yards per reception (29.3) than any player in all of the NCAA, regardless of division. Hill entered the NFL draft after his junior season and was selected in the second round by the New York Jets. Junior linebacker Julian Burnett ranked fifth in the ACC and 36th nationally in tackles (120). He had 42 more tackles than any other Tech player. Tech had a 100-yard receiver four times and a 100yard rusher seven times. The Yellow Jackets played 10 true freshmen – DB/PR Zach Laskey, LB Kyle Travis, LB Tremayne McNair, LB Nick Menocal, CB Jamal Golden, OL Shaq

GEORGIA TECH FOOTBALL
YES, THAT HEISMAN In 1904 John Heisman took over as Georgia Tech’s head football coach. He coached 16 seasons, compiling a remarkable 102-29-7 (.779) record, including four unbeaten campaigns. Heisman’s original contract called for him to coach the football and baseball teams for a paultry sum of $2,250 (less $500 for supplies), plus 30 percent of the gate receipts.

FROM TECH QB TO PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE Lt. Leonard Wood was a star quarterback and co-head coach on the 1893 team that played -- and beat -- rival Georgia for the first time, 28-6, in Athens. After the 1894 season Wood was assigned to Ft. McPherson and he went on to win the Congressional Medal of Honor for participating in the Indian wars against Geronimo. He then was the colonel who formed the volunteer brigade called the Rough Riders during the Spanish American War (Teddy Roosevelt gets the credit but was the Lt. Colonel under Wood). He later went to Washington when Roosevelt became President and served in a variety of roles, including Army Chief of Staff. In 1920, he unsuccessfully ran as a Republican for U.S. President.

TECH’S FIRST UNBEATEN TEAM Georgia Tech’s first unbeaten team was in 1901. After going winless from 18971900, the Yellow Jackets went 4-0-1 in 1901, shutting out four opponents and tying Furman, 5-5.
Tech did not field a team
From 1908-11, home games were played at Ponce de Leon Park
GEORGIA TECH 222, CUMBERLAND 0 The most lopsided game of all time happened in Atlanta on Oct. 7, 1916. The previous spring, Cumberland’s baseball team had trounced Tech. Cumberland University was located in Lebanon, Tenn., and the Cumberland squad was actually comprised of professional players from nearby Nashville. Georgia Tech head coach John Heisman was not amused, and the Tech students and alumni howled for revenge, so Heisman offered the Bulldogs a $500 guarantee to come to Atlanta for a football game. In the game, Tech scored 32 touchdowns, averaged 3.8 points per minute, carried the ball for 978 yards, and never threw a pass. Cumberland, since it was losing yardage faster than it was gaining real estate, began to kick the football back to the Jackets immediately after Tech kicked off to them. Amazingly, neither team made a first down in the game because Tech scored within four downs on every possession. All-American Everett Strupper led Tech with six touchdowns.

WRONG WAY RIEGELS The most stunning play in Rose Bowl history propelled Georgia Tech to its first bowl victory when Roy Riegels’ infamous Wrong Way Run turned out right as the Rambling Wreck beat California, 8-7, in the 1929 Rose Bowl. Early in the second quarter, with the score tied 0-0, Tech halfback Stumpy Thomason was hit by the Golden Bears’ Benny Lom. He fumbled around the Tech 35-yard line, and Riegels scooped up the bouncing ball. He got a good block from a teammate, slipped off a tackler and spun around. But something was wrong. “Stop, Roy! You’re running the wrong way,” yelled Lom. Riegels thought the speedier Lom was asking for a lateral. At the 10-yard line, Lom grabbed Riegels, but

1931 Riegels shook him loose. Finally, at the one-yard line, Lom pulled Riegels down, but not before a 64-yard run into immortality. California still had the ball. On the first play, the Golden Bears attempted to punt the ball out of the end zone with Riegels snapping to Lom. However, Tech’s Vance Maree blocked the punt, which rolled out of bounds for a safety. Both teams traded touchdowns in the second half, and Tech eventually prevailed, 8-7, in one of the strangest games ever played. Tech’s Rose Bowl win capped a perfect 10-0 season, the first undefeated season for head coach William Alexander, and the Rambling Wreck captured its second national title.

ORANGE YOU GLAD Following the 1939 season, Georgia Tech made the first of five appearances in the Orange Bowl, upsetting Missouri 21-7 on Jan. 1, 1940. First night game in Tech history
1943 1945 SWEET AS SUGAR The 8-3 record posted by the 1943 Tech team doesn’t give justice to one of the great seasons in Yellow Jacket history. Heading into November with a 3-3 record, Tech reeled off wins over LSU, Tulane, Clemson and a 480 win over Georgia to win the SEC championship. A month later, the Jackets beat Tulsa in the Sugar Bowl, becoming the first team to play in all four major bowls (Sugar, Rose, Cotton, Orange).

Lothridge also handled kicking and punting for the Yellow Jackets. Tech finished 7-3 in ‘63, defeating Florida, Clemson, Tennessee, Florida State and Georgia.
BREAKING BARRIERS Eddie McAshan, the son of a Gainesville (Fla.) mortician, became the first African-American to start at quarterback for a major Southeastern university. McAshan was Tech’s starter in 1970, 1971 and 1972.

Bernard Montgomery flashed across North Africa in pursuit of Erwin Rommel, and the Russians made their goal-line stand at Stalingrad. He had played only one college football game when Notre Dame scout Wayne Millner warned coach Frank Leahy that “the most dangerous runner in America” would invade South Bend. As a freshman, he finished third in the Heisman Trophy balloting. And then he was gone.

CLINT CASTLEBERRY The only retired jersey in Georgia Tech's storied football history is the No. 19 worn by running back Clint Castleberry in 1942. Though just a freshman, he finished third in the Heisman Trophy voting as he led Tech to a 9-2 record, highlighted by historic victories at Notre Dame and Navy and capped by a berth in the Cotton Bowl. Just weeks later, he enlisted in the U.S. Army, and on Nov. 7, 1944, his plane disappeared. For one fleeting season in 1942, Clint Castleberry blazed across the football field like a ‘crazed jackrabbit.’ Some said he could have been the greatest Tech player in history, if it weren’t for World War II and a plane that disappeared off the West African coast without a trace. He flashed across the fields at Notre Dame and Navy that fall of ’42, leading Georgia Tech’s shocking onslaughts, while Sir

INTRODUCTION
IVERY’S 356 YARDS SETS RECORD With temperatures in the 20s, the wind chill at zero, and with an agitated stomach that nearly sidelined him, Georgia Tech tailback Eddie Lee Ivery made college football history on Nov. 20, 1978 at Air Force. On 26 rushes, Ivery gained 356 yards, breaking an NCAA record, on a field that required de-snowing by a street sweeper twice before the game. Complicating Ivery’s plight was his stomach. After a nifty reversal of direction, which resulted in a 73-yard TD run in the second quarter giving Tech a 14-0 lead, Ivery was on the sidelines doubled over, vomiting and in obvious pain.

1978 1977
THE RHINOS Randy Rhino was a three-time All-American (1972-74). Randy was the second of three generations of Rhinos to play at Tech. Chappell Rhino (195052), Danny (1974-76) and Kelley (1999-02) all wore the Gold and White.
1980 1979
THE ACC Although Tech first joined the Atlantic Coast Conference in 1979, the Yellow Jackets first competed for the football championship in 1983.
A STORM & A STREAK The ‘00 season opener was cancelled because of a storm at Virginia Tech, but the Jackets won their final seven regular season games including a win in Athens between the hedges. ACC CHAMPIONS Georgia Tech finished 7-1 in the ACC, earning a share of the league title with Florida State. Tech finished 10-2 overall, beat Georgia (21-19) and knocked off Notre Dame in the Toyota Gator Bowl.

zled, Ivery ran for 13 yards, then for another 13. Adding to the drama, Ivery’s stomach began to churn again, to the extent he had to leave the game. His replacement, Ray Friday, shocked everyone by bolting 66 yards up the middle for his second touchdown of the day. When LB Henry Johnson intercepted a Falcon pass, Ivery had his chance. He trotted back onto the field and rushed 21 yards with his first carry, giving him the record.
1984 1983
MID-80s TURNAROUND In 1985, Georgia Tech went 9-2-1 and beat Michigan State in the All-American Bowl -- the Jackets’ first bowl win in 15 years. Tech had gone the previous six years with six or less wins.

THE PJ ERA BEGINS WITH A BANG The experts predicted Paul Johnson’s first season to be a struggle. All Tech did was win nine games and finish tied for first in the ACC’s Coastal Division. Along the way, Johnson and his spread option offense won on the road at Clemson, beat Florida State and Miami at home, then closed the regular season with a memorable 45-42 win at rival Georgia after trailing by 16 points.
2002 2001
MAJOR UPSETS In 1980, Bill Curry’s first season as head coach, Tech went just 1-9-1. However, the Yellow Jackets’ tie (33) came against No. 1-ranked Notre Dame. The following year, the Jackets went just 110, but the lone victory was a 24-21 win vs. 4th-ranked Alabama in Birmingham.
1990 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS Georgia Tech moved into the Top 25 for the first time in 1990 after it beat 25th-ranked South Carolina to improve to 3-0. Two weeks later, the Jackets knocked off 15th-ranked Clemson to improve to 5-0. Tech moved into the national championship conversation in early November when Scott Sisson’s field goal with seven seconds remaining gave the Yellow Jackets a memorable 41-38 win at No. 1 Virginia. Tech closed the regular season by winning on the road against rival Georgia, 41-23, setting the stage for a 45-21 win over Nebraska in the Citrus Bowl. The following day, Tech learned it shared the national title with Colorado.
MEGATRON BREAKS OUT As a junior, Calvin Johnson was one of college football player’s most dominant players. He hauled in 76 passes for a school record 1,202 yards and 15 touchdowns. Johnson led the Yellow Jackets to an ACC Coastal Division crown with a 7-1 league mark. Johnson was the second overall pick in the ‘07 NFL draft by the Detroit Lions.
Joe Hamilton finished second in the Heisman Trophy race and won the Davey O’Brien Award.
THE O’LEARY ERA George O’Leary went 18-16 in his first three seasons, but went on to win at least eight games every year from 1998-2001 and played in five bowls.

At halftime, Ivery had 122 yards on 12 carries. An 80-yard TD run with 6:08 left in the third quarter gave him 240 yards and broke Brent Cunningham’s school record of 217 yards set in 1970. With 10:25 left, Ivery scored on a 57-yard run, giving him 309 yards and putting him within 41 yards of the NCAA record of 350 by Michigan State’s Eric Allen vs. Purdue in 1971.

GEORGIA TECH FOOTBALL
in Tech history
Dec. 31, 1985: Tech 17, Michigan State 14. In the AllAmerican Bowl in Legion Field, Tech prevailed behind its great Black Watch defense and emergency starting QB Todd Rampley.
Jan. 4, 2004: Tech 52, Tulsa 10. In the Humanitarian Bowl in frigid Boise, Idaho, P.J. Daniels ran for an NCAA bowl-record 307 yards and four touchdowns -- despite playing little in the fourth quarter.
The 1929 Rose Bowl. Cal's Roy Riegels ran the wrong way, Tech won 8-7 and claimed its second national championship.
Dec. 2, 1989: Tech 33, Georgia 22. Jerry Mays ran for 207 yards to help complete a remarkable 7-4 Tech turnaround after an 0-3 start.
Oct. 3, 1942: Tech finally won at Notre Dame for the first time in eight tries, 13-6. Freshman phenom Clint Castleberry threw a touchdown pass in his only season on The Flats, before dying while piloting a plane during World War II.
Oct. 13, 1990: Tech 21, Clemson. In one of the many thrilling, physical battles in this rivalry, this stamped Tech as a legitimate national title contender.
Sept. 4, 2004: Tech 28, Clemson 24. In another spine tingler against the Tigers, this one in Death Valley, freshman and eventual ACC Rookie of the Year Calvin Johnson caught two of his three TD receptions in the final 1:50 -- the game-winner from Ball with five seconds left.
Nov. 26, 1949: Georgia Tech 7, Georgia 6, the Grant Field victory that started "The Drought," Bobby Dodd's eight-year mastery of Georgia.
Sept. 1, 2007: Georgia Tech 33, Notre Dame 3 (South Bend). The Yellow Jackets opened the season by handing the Fighting Irish one of their most embarrassing home losses.
Nov. 15, 1952: Tech 7, Alabama 3. In the most exciting game, at that time, in Tech annals, Jakie Rudolph's "$125,000 tackle" of Bobby Marlow helped preserve the victory, earned Tech a Sugar Bowl bid (and the $125,000 payout) but also preserved the Jackets' 12-0 season and the Institute's third national title.
Nov. 11, 1978: Tech 42, Air Force 21. On the frozen tundra in Colorado Springs, Eddie Lee Ivery ran wild for 356 yards, breaking the NCAA single-game rushing record.
Dec. 1, 1984: Tech 35, Georgia 18. In Athens, this was Curry's turnaround game for the program, one that ended a six-game losing streak to UGA.
Jan. 1, 1991: Tech 45, Nebraska 21. In the Citrus Bowl in Orlando, Tech toyed with the Huskers. Behind Jones and Bell once again, the Jackets completed an 11-0-1 season and won the UPI Coaches National Championship the next day by one point in the final poll. Oct. 17, 1998: Tech 41, Virginia 38. In another 41-38 thriller, this one in Atlanta, Dez White caught six passes for a school record 243 yards -- the last 54 coming on the game-winning catch to upset No. 6 UVa.
Nov. 29, 2008: Georgia Tech 45, Georgia 42 (Athens). Paul Johnson’s first Yellow Jacket team overcame 2612 halftime deficit to break seven-year skid against a Bulldog team that was ranked No. 1 in the preseason. Freshman Roddy Jones ran for 214 yards. Oct. 17, 2009: Georgia Tech 28, Virginia Tech 23 (Atlanta). Tech’s first win at home against a top-five ranked team since 1962. The fans stormed the field and tore down the goal posts in the north end zone.
RECORDS
Nov. 8, 1980: Tech 3, Notre Dame 3. Bill Curry's first team as head coach of the Jackets stunned the unbeaten, No. 1 Irish and nearly beat them before a late, tying field goal.
QB Shawn Jones led the comeback vs. No. 1 Virginia.

Nov. 6, 1976: Tech 23, Notre Dame 14. In the "Passless Upset," the Jackets -- with freshman QB Gary Lanier running Pepper Rodgers' option to perfection -didn't throw a pass in shocking the Irish.
Nov. 20, 2008: Georgia Tech 41, Miami 23 (Atlanta). The Yellow Jackets flexed offensive muscle with nationally-televised win over the 23rd-ranked Hurricanes in a “White-Out” at Bobby Dodd Stadium
STAFF
Nov. 1, 2008: Georgia Tech 31, Florida State 28 (Atlanta). Tech’s first win over the Seminoles since 1975 was decided when true freshman Rashaad Reid recovered FSU fumble in the end zone in final minute.
Nov. 17, 1962: Tech 7, Alabama 6. Another epic Grant Field win over Alabama, one Dodd called "my greatest victory." Mike McNames scored Tech's only touchdown and made a game-saving tackle to upset Bear Bryant's unbeaten, No. 1 defending national champs. Dec. 18, 1972: Tech 31, Iowa State 30, in the Liberty Bowl. In Memphis, backup quarterback Jim Stevens -playing for the suspended Eddie McAshan -- threw for 157 yards and 3 TDs and was named the MVP.
Sept. 30, 2006: Tech 38, Virginia Tech 27. A year after losing 51-7 in Blacksburg, Tech returned, got a quick start and two first-quarter TD catches from Johnson to win, get revenge and seize control of the ACC's Coastal Division.
PLAYERS
Jan. 1, 1952: Tech 17, Baylor 14. Pepper Rodgers' last-second field goal gave the Jackets an Orange Bowl comeback win over Baylor and an 11-0-1 season.
Nov. 3, 1990: Tech 41, Virginia 38. In Charlottesville, in likely the most significant victory in Tech annals, the Jackets staged a phenomenal comeback against No. 1 Virginia's potent offense. Shawn Jones and William Bell led the resurgence, and Scott Sisson's field goal with 7 seconds left stunned UVA and set off a wild celebration back on The Flats.
Nov. 11, 2005: Tech 14, Miami 10. In an upset of the No. 3 Hurricanes, Tashard Choice played for the injured Daniels and was superb. As was the Tech's resolute defense.

MEMORABLEGAMES
Nov. 28, 1998: Tech 21, Georgia 19, in Athens. Brad Chambers' 35-yard field goal in the final seconds ended a seven-game losing streak to UGA. Jan. 1, 1999: Tech 35, Notre Dame 28. In the Gator Bowl in Jacksonville, White and Joe Hamilton (who threw three TD passes and caught one himself) were co-MVPs, and gave Tech its first 10-win season since 1990 and a final ranking of No. 9.
HISTORY
Nov. 27, 1999: Tech 51, Georgia 48, in overtime. In the most thrilling game in Bobby Dodd Stadium annals, Joe Hamilton's last home game was triumphant. Luke Manget's second-chance, OT field goal sent Tech fans into euphoria. Many of them carried Hamilton -- who was second in the Heisman Trophy voting that season -- on their shoulders and around the stadium. Fans stormed the filed after beating Virginia Tech in ‘09.

RESULTS HISTORY
Paul Johnson is the 12th full-time football coach in Georgia Tech history. Prior to 1904, when John Heisman became the school’s first permanent head coach, the team was “coached” by professors, interested townspeople or one of the players. Professor Ernest E. West, a Naval College graduate, directed Tech’s first football team in 1892. In 1893 and ’94, the squad was coached by volunteers Frank O. Spain, a Mathematics professor, and Lt. Leonard Wood (who later became famous as the colonel in command of Roosevelt’s Rough Riders and as Governor General of Cuba), then stationed at Ft. McPherson in Atlanta. The rules were rather lax in those days, so Spain and Wood also played on the team. The next volunteer coach of record was R.B. “Cow” Nalley in 1898, “Mr. Collier” in 1899, Dr. Cyrus W. Strickler in 1901, and John McKee in 1902.

INTRODUCTION
2012 PREVIEW
PLAYERS
SERIES NOTES The last time Georgia Tech played Boston College, in 2008, it marked Paul Johnson’s first ACC game with the Yellow Jackets... Tech won the game, 19-16... BC comes to Atlanta for the first time since 2007 when Eagle quarterback Matt Ryan engineered a 24-10 over the Jackets in a battle of two nationally-ranked teams... Brigham Young is on the schedule for the first time since the two teams split meetings in 2002 and 2003... Tech will travel to BYU in 2013... Georgia Tech has won five of the last six meetings with Clemson, the defending ACC champion, but the Tigers won the last meeting at Memorial Stadium in 2010... the Jackets have won the last eight meetings, and 16 of the last 17 meetings against Duke... the Blue Devils will be looking for their first win in Atlanta since 1994... Tech and Georgia will meet for the 107th time when the Yellow Jackets and Bulldogs meet in the regular season finale... the Jackets will play on the road against Maryland for the first time since 2007... Tech leads the alltime series with Miami, 10-7, but the Hurricanes have won the last three meetings... Tech will play Middle Tennessee State for the third consecutive season... Jacket QB Tim Byerly is a transfer from MTSU.
