Qua Searcy will start at one of the A-back positions when Georgia Tech hosts Mercer on Saturday in its home-opening game. Coach Paul Johnson said on Tuesday that the other starting spot is up for grabs.
“It could be any of them,” he said.
Searcy, a redshirt sophomore, had just two carries for 4 yards in last week’s 17-14 win over Boston College, but he caught three passes for 60 yards, including a 22-yard reception on fourth-and-19 in the fourth quarter that led to the eventual game-winning score.
