ATLANTA (AP) This may have been the perfect time for Georgia Tech's first international summer trip since 1991.
The Yellow Jackets took a three-game, six-day trip to the Bahamas in August. That gave coach Brian Gregory bonus practice time to help three transfers find their fit.
Coach Brian Gregory came back to Atlanta enthused about this season. Much of the optimism is based on an infusion of talent and experience from the transfers - guard Adam Smith of Virginia Tech, forward Nick Jacobs of Alabama and forward James White of Arkansas-Little Rock.
Gregory's future at Georgia Tech could ride on his ability to make good use of his new talent.
