  Shortly after the New Orleans Bowl went final, true senior defensive end Raymond Johnson III tweeted that he would forego his extra season of eligibility and enter the 2021 NFL draft. Johnson is the first GS defensive lineman in a while who could find his way onto an NFL roster after a season with 38 tackles and five sacks to earn All-Sun Belt first-team honors. The defensive lineman's success is a positive sign for his position coach Victor Cabral, who just finished up his third season in the current role. Cabral should return the rest of his defensive line in 2021, led by nose tackle C.J. Wright and defensive ends Justin Ellis and Dillon Springer. - Savannah Morning News

  Georgia Tech quarterback James Graham entered the transfer portal, a team spokesman confirmed Thursday morning. Graham, a sophomore, started eight games as a redshirt freshman in 2019, but was displaced by freshman quarterback Jeff Sims this season. Graham played in one game this season, coming in for Sims in the second half of the loss to Boston College. Graham played four possessions and led the Jackets on a 55-yard touchdown drive.

In a statement posted from his Twitter account, Graham wrote that he has "fought some internal battles for quite a while," but that he refused to let them be a setback. "I told my mom that I would never give up on my dreams no matter what the situation was," he wrote. He called his decision to leave Tech "not the end but the beginning of a new chapter." Graham started the final eight games of the 2019 season, showing potential and playmaking ability but also inconsistency. The four-star prospect from Fitzgerald High finished the season completing 87 of 193 passes (45.1%) for 1,164 yards with 12 touchdown and seven interceptions. - The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
