Hours before taking on No. 1 Georgia tonight, Georgia Tech took a loss on the recruiting trail. 

Four-star cornerback Traejen Greco, who had been committed to the Yellow Jackets since the summer, decommitted today. Greco plays at Mill Creek High School in Georgia and has had a tremendous senior season and he is the second-highest-rated member of the 2024 class according to 247Sports. He is the No. 215 player in the country according to the 247Sports Composite, the No. 17 corner in the country and the No. 28 player in the state of Georgia. 

Greco was on a visit to Missouri last week. 

Since the start of the season, Greco had been getting love for recruiting analysts from across the industry. 

Andrew Ivins, the Director of Scouting for 247Sports, had this to say about the performance Greco had in a game against North Gwinnett at the start of the season:

"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."

Greco is a really talented player and this is a loss for Georgia Tech. Key has done a pretty solid job on the recruiting trail this season, but losing a talented in-state player is tough. We will see how Key finishes on the trail before signing day, which is approaching quickly.
