ESPN Names Georgia Tech Cornerback Commit Trajen Greco as one of the Most Underrated Recruits in the 2024 class
Georgia Tech cornerback commit Trajen Greco (Mill Creek High School, GA) is in the midst of an impressive senior season, and just last week, he claimed four-star status on 247Sports.
It seems like more and more people are catching on to how talented Greco is because today, ESPN listed him as one of the most underrated recruits in the 2024 class:
"A big riser who jumped into the ESPN 300, Greco looks like a hometown steal for Georgia Tech. He projects to cornerback and uses his 6-foot-1 frame well, showing good length, agility, and aggressive play style. It might be tough to only use him on defense because of his versatility. His head coach at Mill Creek High School noted that Greco is their most athletic player, deploying him at times in the Wildcat and at receiver where he can utilize his outstanding ball skills. Greco is a very good football player who was ranked too low as a three-star, but is no longer under the radar."

Whenever the stage is the brightest, Greco shows why he might be the top player in Georgia Tech's recruiting class.
Greco got off to a great start this season on the first weekend of the year in Georgia High School Football. Mill Creek opened up their season in the Corky Kell Classic against North Gwinnett and Greco had himself one of the best performances in the state of Georgia. He caught five passes for 75 yards and two touchdowns, while also doing a good job of returning punts. He put his full skillset on display and showed why the Yellow Jackets staff loved getting his commitment early.
Greco is getting love nationally as well. Andrew Ivins, the Director of Scouting for 247Sports, had this to say about the performance Greco had:
"The MVP of Mill Creek’s 49-14 beatdown of North Gwinnett was Trajen Greco, and he absolutely deserved the award. The Georgia Tech commit caught five passes for 75 yards and two touchdowns on offense, made four tackles on defense, and added a 35-yard punt return on special teams.
The Yellow Jackets like Greco as a defensive back, and it’s easy to see why. Late in the first half when the game was still close, Greco flashed his range as he got across the field and hawked down a ball carrier right before the goal line after a slip pass left the defense completely exposed.
Greco, who picked off five passes as a junior, owns a promising two-sport profile having constantly scored in double figures on the hardwood this past winter. He’s someone we will be keeping a close eye on over the next few months."
