Former Georgia Tech Signee Blue Cain Commits to Georgia

Cain is opting to sign with the Yellow Jackets rival

Former Georgia Tech signee Blue Cain is going to be playing for the Yellow Jackets rivals instead. 

Back in March after former Georgia Tech head coach Josh Pastner was fired and replaced by Damon Stoudamire, Cain requested a release from his NLI and he reopened his recruitment.

Blue Cain is rated the 98th overall prospect in the 2023 class according to 247Sports and is one of the top shooters in the country. This now leaves Georgia Tech without any high school signees in the 2023 class.

There are six transfers that have committed to the Yellow Jackets under Stoudamire. Presbyterian transfer Jalen Forrest is going to be joining Kowacie Reeves (Florida), Ebenezer Dowuona (NC State), Tyzhaun Claude (Western Carolina), Tafara Gapare (UMass), and Amaree Abram (Ole Miss) as the transfers joining the program this offseason. 

While Stoudamire has brought in these talented players, there has been an exodus of players leaving as well.

Guard Deivon Smith, guard Tristan Maxwell, center Cyril Martynov, forward Freds Pauls Bagatskis, forward Jordan Meka, and center Rodney Howard have all entered the transfer portal. Howard and Smith have been contributors over the past couple of seasons, but the others had small roles.

Guard Miles Kelly, the Yellow Jackets leading scorer last season, declared for the NBA Draft, but is maintaining his collegiate eligibility and could return.
