Georgia Tech now has a running back commitment for the 2023 class

In this story:

Georgia Tech has been trying to land a running back in the 2023 class and after an official visit this weekend, the Yellow Jackets have their guy. 

2023 running back Evan Dickens (IMG Academy, FL) announced this afternoon that he is committed to Georgia Tech. Dickens was one of several official and unofficial visitors this past weekend and becomes the third high school commit for Georgia Tech since Sunday night. 

Dickens was formally committed to Coastal Carolina before backing off of his commitment earlier this year. At 5'11, 180 LBS, Dickens will provide depth to the backfield and look to be a contributor in future seasons. Other offers that he held were Arkansas State, Charlotte, Georgia State, Temple, USF, and Western Kentucky. He is a physical runner that has enough explosiveness to hit big plays. His development will be one to follow through the next few years.
