Former Georgia Tech Wide Receiver Ryan King Transfers To East Carolina

Ryan King will be playing for East Carolina in 2023

Georgia Tech had two wide receivers transfer after the 2022 season and a few weeks after Nate McCollum announced he was going to be heading to Chapel Hill to play for the Tar Heels, Ryan King announced his destination today. 

King is going to be playing for Mike Houston and the East Carolina Pirates for the future. King was a talented player that just could not find a role for himself while in Atlanta and finished his career with only five catches for 45 yards, zero touchdowns, and averaging nine yards per catch. 

With King and McCollum transferring elsewhere, the Yellow Jackets have had to find transfer help at the position to replace both players. Georgia Tech has landed commitments from Chase Lane (Texas A&M) and Abdul Jenneh (Duquesne) in the last month as well as signing three talented high schoolers in the 2023 class. Bryce Dopson (Brookwood, GA), Eric Singleton (Alexander, GA), and Zion Taylor (Norcross, GA) are guys to watch to possibly get on the field this season.
