Entering this season, Georgia Tech sophomore Jose Alvarado had plenty of pressure on his shoulders. The Jackets in the offseason had to deal with several key departures and in the process, Jose Alvarado became the Jackets top scoring option to enter the season.
As a freshman, Alvarado looked like a potential All-ACC point guard in the future. He averaged 12.1 points as a freshman with a .448 shooting percentage including .370 from beyond the arch. It was expected that he would continue that success entering his sophomore season, if not grow upon those numbers.
That being said, the season definitely did not go to plan for Alvarado.
