In the hours before the national championship game was to kickoff (and with the heaviest 3 weeks of recruiting season to start immediately following the game), the 2017 Yellow Jackets’ recruiting class added its first commitment of the new year. Marist High School OL Charlie Clark had been committed to Tulane, but decided to stay a little closer to home.
Clark is listed at 6’4”, 270 pounds, and hails from Atlanta’s Marist High School. He commits to Georgia Tech after flipping from Tulane, a commitment he made in late May. Aside from the Green Wave, he had reported offers from Army, Florida Atlantic, and Georgia Southern, and interest from Louisville and Wake Forest.
