One of Georgia Tech’s best offensive players will reportedly enter the transfer portal. According to multiple reports, wide receiver Eric Singleton Jr. will enter the portal.

There’s no other way to say it, but this is a huge loss for Georgia Tech. Singleton has been one of the best wide receivers in the ACC over the past few seasons

Singleton Jr. led all freshmen (true or redshirt) nationally with 64.2 receiving yards per game and ranks second nationally among true freshmen with six touchdown receptions in 2023. His 706 receiving yards and six touchdown catches both ranked in the top 10 overall in the ACC, while his six TD receptions were just one shy of the Georgia Tech freshman record of seven held by Calvin Johnson (2004) and Ahmarean Brown (2019).

Singleton Jr. was in the running for Offensive Rookie of the Year honors and finished second. NC State wide receiver Kevin “KC” Concepcion was named rookie of the year.

Last season, Singleton caught 56 ​​passes for 754 yards and three touchdowns. He was also an effective runner, rushing for 131 yards on 21 carries and one touchdown. He is a dynamic receiver with incredible speed and will not be easy to replace on offense. It should be noted that Singleton could change his mind and return to Georgia Tech, but for now he will be one of the most sought-after players in the transfer portal. According to PFF (Pro Football Focus), Singleton played 642 snaps and finished with a 73.7 grade on offense, the ninth-best grade on Georgia Tech’s offense

It is currently expected that Georiga Tech will lose four receivers from last year’s team. Leo Blackburn announced he will enter the transfer portal while Chase Lane and Abdul Janneh are ineligible. Singelton was expected to be one of Georgia Tech’s best playmakers in 2025, and the duo of him and Malik Rutherford would have been one of the best in the ACC.

Singleton is the sixth transfer portal exit for Georgia Tech, joining QB Zach Pyron, OL Corey Robinson and Jordan Brown, WR Leo Blackburn and DT Horace Lockett.

The NCAA winter transfer portal opens on Monday, December 9th and closes on Saturday, December 28th. The NCAA spring transfer portal window is April 15-26.

Georgia Tech (7-5, 5-3 ACC) will return to a bowl game for the second straight year, and this time the goal is a little different. Instead of the Gasparilla Bowl, Georgia Tech will travel to Birmingham, AL to play Vanderbilt in the Birmingham Bowl. The game will be played on Friday, December 27th at 3:30 p.m. ET and will be televised on ESPN.

This is a matchup that has some history. Georgia Tech leads the all-time series with Vandy 20-15 and has won six straight in the series and 12 of the last 13. The last meeting between the schools was in Atlanta in 2016, a 38-7 win for Georgia Tech. Vanderbilt hasn’t beaten the Yellow Jackets since 1941. The two teams tied 10-10 in a 1965 duel in Nashville. This means Georgia Tech can build on its success against Vanderbilt, who had a really good season under Clark Lea. The Commodores started the season with a big upset over Virginia Tech and of course there was the decisive win against No. 1 Alabama (a week after the Crimson Tide beat Georgia). Vandy also picked up wins against Kentucky and Auburn and suffered narrow losses against Texas and LSU.
