After receiving impermissible benefits, the NCAA ruled on the suspensions of Tadric Jackson and Josh Okogie.
Jackson will serve a three-game suspension while Okogie will sit out six games. All things considered, this is pretty good news for Georgia Tech fans, as both players will be back for pivotal non-conference games against Tennessee and Georgia.
