Rodney Howard and Kyle Sturdivant in similar some ways. They both played high school ball in Atlanta and considered going to Georgia Tech before signing further afield (Sturdivant went to USC (California version) and Howard all the way to Athens to play for UGA). After a disappointing freshman season they both decided to transfer back to Atlanta to play for Tech.
There are some differences. Kyle Sturdivant was a highly touted recruit who was having a limited season in LA before his dad tragically passed away in early February. He took leave from the team to head back to Georgia before rejoining them for the end of the season (although he didn’t play anymore).
