Technical Tidbits 5/3: Demetris Robertson, NFL front offices shun the East Coast

Former Georgia Tech target Demetris Robertson made a surprising college decision on Sunday, electing to commit to Cal over his other reported top choices of Notre Dame, UGA, and Georgia Tech. And so ends the nearly three month long odyssey wherein speculative rumor after speculative rumor regarding Robertson's supposed decision surfaced and descended; we are free at last. The result is obviously not ideal for Tech, but seeing Robertson leave UGA in the cold is rather hilarious, especially given that most media outlets had the school from Athens penciled in as the frontrunner since roughly 1997. It's also worth noting that the social media showing from UGA fans was nothing short of despicable.
