Georgia Tech intensifies its spring roster battle as Jack Tyler joins Brent Key’s coaching staff, aiming to elevate the linebacker group in 2026. Can veterans like Kyle Eiford and EJ Lightsey rebound under Tyler’s guidance? Jarvis Davis and Najeh Wilkins spotlight Georgia Tech’s defensive weaknesses, raising red flags about the defensive tackle depth and youthful safeties. The duo breaks down which position group poses the biggest concern for the Yellow Jackets, referencing recent additions like Vincent Carroll Jackson and Tawfiq Thomas.

Off the field, Athletic Director Ryan Alpert faces a pivotal decision: Is it time to part ways with head coach Damon Stoudemire after nine straight losses? The conversation explores Stoudemire’s recruiting prowess, challenges with player development, and the financial realities of a coaching change at Georgia Tech. How will the basketball program regain its footing, and what must Alpert do to get the Yellow Jackets back on track?
