  2020 RAY GUY AWARD (TOP PUNTER) WINNER: Pressley Harvin Jr., Georgia Tech,...Georgia Tech senior Pressley Harvin III was named the winner of the 2020 Ray Guy Award as the college football's top punter during The Home Depot College Football Awards Show on Thursday night. After setting Georgia Tech and Atlantic Coast Conference records with a 48.0-yard punting average in 2020, Harvin became Tech's second Ray Guy Award winner in the 21-year history of the award. Durant Brooks was the Ray Guy Award recipient as a Yellow Jacket in 2007. - Georgia Tech Football

  12/31/20 - Pressley Harvin IIISr/2021, Georgia Tech, 5-11, 263 (DS#3 P) + More +

  2020 ALL-ACC FOOTBALL FIRST TEAM (COACHES/MEDIA): P - Pressley Harvin III, Georgia Tech, 161,...Harvin leads the nation with a 48.0-yard punting average this season. To put his whopping 48.0-yard average into perspective, the margin between Harvin's average and the third-best average in the nation (46.7 - Washington State's Oscar Draguicevich) is the same as the margin between Draguicevich and the nation's ninth-best average (45.4 - San Diego State's Tanner Kuljian).

In addition to the 48.0-yard average, 49% of Harvin's 45 punts this season have traveled 50 or more yards, 47% were fair caught, 40% were downed inside the opponent's 20 yard line and only 17% were returned. Thanks in large part to those gaudy numbers, Georgia Tech ranks second nationally as a team in net punting (44.6-yard average). - Georgia Tech Football

  2020 ALL-ACC FOOTBALL HONORABLE MENTION (COACHES/MEDIA): LB - David Curry, Georgia Tech, 29,...Curry was an honorable-mention all-ACC selection for the second-straight season after leading the team and ranking fifth in the ACC with 8.4 tackles per game (84 total). He also led Georgia Tech with 9.0 tackles for loss (good for 19th in the league) and added 1.5 sacks, two pass breakups, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in his final season on The Flats. - Georgia Tech Football

  12/29/20 - Ayinde EleyrSr/2023, Georgia Tech, 6-3, 230 (DS#46 ILB) + More +

  Georgia Tech has received the commitment of Maryland linebacker Ayinde Eley, who will arrive as a grad transfer. With 11 starts and 111 career tackles to his credit, Eley looks like he can compete for a starting job in 2021. He is expected to arrive in January, meaning he can take part in spring practice. Eley, from Silver Spring, Md., announced his decision to enter the transfer portal last Friday and made public his commitment to Tech on Monday. At 6-foot-3 and 240 pounds, he will be a size upgrade for defensive coordinator Andrew Thacker. His two starting linebackers for this season, David Curry and Quez Jackson, were listed at 6-2, 230 and 6-1, 225, respectively. Eley will have two years of eligibility remaining. - Atlanta Journal Constitution

  12/24/20 - Kyric McGowanrSr/2022, Georgia Tech, 5-11, 200 (DS#86 WR) + More +

  Junior running back Isaiah Bowser, sophomore defensive lineman Eku Leota, senior wide receiver Kyric McGowan, freshman defensive back Gunner Maldonado, sophomore linebacker Jeremiah McDonald and sophomore wide receiver Malik Washington have entered the NCAA Transfer Portal. The players' decisions come on the heels of NU's selection to the Citrus Bowl against Auburn in Orlando on New Year's Day. Each athlete will receive an extra year of eligibility from the NCAA in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

McGowan - who has played some snaps at running back in addition to his usual role as a wide receiver - was a key cog in offensive coordinator Mike Bajakian's scheme. Over eight games, he has a career-high 366 receiving yards, 141 rushing yards and one touchdown. This season, he has increased his yards-per-catch by three yards to 10.8 and averages about seven touches per game. - The Daily Northwestern

  After entering the NCAA transfer portal 11 days ago, former Texas Longhorns redshirt sophomore defensive tackle Daniel Carson announced on Tuesday that he'll join the Western Illinois Leathernecks program. The 6'4, 276-pounder signed with Texas in the 2018 recruiting class out of the Kansas City area, Carson was a consensus three-star prospect ranked as the No. 23 strong-side defensive end nationally, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings. Carson redshirted during his first season on the Forty Acres, then appeared in four games last season, making one tackle against Louisiana Tech. When new defensive coordinator Chris Ash arrived at Texas and shifted to a four-down front, Carson moved inside from defensive end to defensive tackle. - Burnt Orange Nation

  12/18/20 - Jalen CamprSr/2021, Georgia Tech, 6-2, 226 (DS#62 WR) + More +

  Georgia Tech wide receiver Jalen Camp will forego his extra year of eligibility and seek a career in the NFL. Camp, who played his senior season this year but had an option to return as the NCAA has granted all fall-sports athletes with an additional year of eligibility, made the announcement Thursday on his Twitter account. After an injury and surgery shortened his 2019 season to four games, Camp came back and completed the best season of his career, with 29 catches for 439 yards and four touchdowns, all team highs. He showed strong hands and the ability to use his size (6-foot-2, 220 pounds) effectively to be a target for quarterback Jeff Sims. - Atlanta Journal Constitution

  In a brief statement expressing gratitude for the Texas strength staff, led by Yancy McKnight, and his teammates, redshirt sophomore defensive tackle Daniel Carson announced he had entered the NCAA transfer portal. "First, I would like to thank the strength staff at the University of Texas for giving me the strength and mental toughness I have gained the last three years," Carson wrote Thursday in a note posted to Twitter. "Specifically, coach McKnight for taking me and molding me into the man I've become today." Carson was a two-time all-state selection at William Chrisman (Independence, Mo.) was the state's No. 9 prospect and nation's No. 23 strong-side defensive end as a 2018 senior, per the 247Sports composite. - Houston Chronicle

  Running back Bruce Jordan-Swilling also is considering using a second senior season, possibly elsewhere. "Our main goal is to graduate and then try to make a decision," said Pat Swilling, Bruce's father and a Tech legend. "We all know that they have a lot of great running backs ahead of Bruce, and Bruce wants to play football. I think a lot of that is going to have to do with what coach Collins tells him."

Jordan-Swilling is on course to graduate in the spring with a degree in business. After switching in the spring from linebacker to running back - a position where he was a four-star prospect in high school - he has played on special teams, but has had few snaps at running back behind Jahmyr Gibbs, Jordan Mason and Jamious Griffin. In any other year, Jordan-Swilling would just be out of luck. This year, he has another chance. Swilling even pointed out that, not having redshirted, Jordan-Swilling could go to another school, play four games in 2021 and redshirt and then play a full season in 2022. "We're going to look at all our options," Swilling said. "That's the best way to put it." - Atlanta Journal Constitution

  12/10/20 - Makius ScottrSr/2025, Georgia Tech, 6-3, 284 (DS#155 DT) + More +

  One of South Carolina football's transfers didn't take long to find a new home. Defensive tackle Makius Scott announced he'd leave the Gamecocks on Friday and Monday he announced he's headed to Georgia Tech. He opted out right after Will Muschamp was fired in November. A former three-star recruit, Scott played in no games this season. He was the No. 755 recruit in the country. The Gamecocks mainly relied on Zacch Pickens, Jabari Ellis, Keir Thomas and Rick Sandidge at tackle. M.J. Webb was the No. 5 option, moving past Scott and an injured Alex Huntley on the depth chart. Scott was recruited and signed by former defensive line coach John Scott Jr. He played under Tracy Rocker after John Scott left for Penn State. - Rock Hill Herald

  2020 RAY GUY AWARD SEMIFINALIST: Pressley Harvin, Georgia Tech,...Harvin leads the Atlantic Coast Conference and ranks No. 2 nationally with 47.6-yard punting average this season (min. two games). Of his 40 punts in 2020, 18 have traveled 50 yards or more, 16 have pinned the opponent inside its 20 yard line, 19 have been fair caught and only have seven have been returned, which plays a big part in Georgia Tech ranking No. 3 nationally in net punting (44.07 avg.). - Georgia Tech Football

  12/07/20 - Brent CimagliarSr/2022, Georgia Tech, 6-0, 219 (DS#999 K) + More +

  Tennessee kicker Brent Cimaglia has opted out of the Volunteers' final two games of the season, citing injuries and a need to focus on his mental well-being. Cimaglia said in a post on social media Monday that took him some time to come to that conclusion. "However my focus is to work on my mental well-being and physical health," Cimaglia wrote. "Due to many hardships and struggles within the program, it is in my best interest to take this additional time to rehabilitate ongoing injuries. I look forward to giving my best in the future."

Cimaglia made 85.1% of his kicks last season. This season the senior is just 5-of-9 on field goals and missed an extra point in Saturday's 31-19 loss to No. 6 Florida, his first miss after 88 made extra points. Tennessee coach Jeremy Pruitt said he talked with Cimaglia, who has played through "difficult circumstances" this season. Pruitt said Cimaglia also indicated he will come back next season with this season not counting against player eligibility. "He feels like that it's better for him not to participate the remainder of the season and put him in a better spot to get ready for next year," Pruitt said. - AP College Football

  When the season ends, Camp will have a decision about a potential third senior season, as the NCAA has granted all fall-sports athletes an extra season of eligibility. Camp's father said the family hasn't made a decision on whether to take it. Richard Camp believes his son can play in the NFL - he has the benefit of having trained a number of NFL players - but realizes that his numbers won't stick out. That said, wide receivers with as few as 25 catches in the 2019 season were taken in the draft. And Camp certainly would catch notice at Tech's Pro Day. Richard Camp said that his son has a 40.5-inch vertical, can run the 40-yard dash under 4.5 seconds, can bench press more than 400 pounds and squat more than 550. Richard Camp said he'll put his trust in the guidance of Collins and Dixon. Before then, Tech and Camp will see if they can build on the form they showed against Duke. "I just feel like Jalen individually and also the team itself, it's just really gratifying to see the lights of success that we've had because we've been waiting for it for awhile," Richard Camp said. - Atlanta Journal Constitution
