GT lands Norcross safety Autry 

Even in today’s era there are sleeper prospects in football recruiting. That’s the case for Georgia Tech newest commitment, Anthony Autry (Norcross, Ga./Norcross), who made an official visit to Georgia Tech this weekend. Paul Johnson and the Yellow Jackets offered him a scholarship and Autry accepted.

“I think it’s great opportunity for Anthony,” Norcross coach Keith Maloof said. “Anthony did everything right his senior year. Coming into this season he had no offers. He played safety and wide receiver for us and was named the Defensive Back of the Year by the Gwinnett (county) coaches.
