Georgia Tech Freshman Linebacker Ashton Heflin Enters the Transfer Portal
Another member of the 2023 recruiting class for Georgia Tech has entered the transfer portal.
Freshman linebacker Ashton Heflin, who recorded one tackle this year for the Yellow Jackets, announced on social media today that he would be entering the transfer portal.
From his bio at Georgia Tech Athletics:
"Rated as a three-star prospect by Rivals, 247Sports and ESPN … First-team all-state honoree as a senior in 2022 … Three-time all-region selection, including first-team recognition as a junior and senior … Three-time all-county performer … Amassed 241 tackles and 15.0 tackles for loss over the course of his high school career, including 122 stops and 9.0 TFL as a senior in 2022 … Coached at Newnan by Chip Walker … Two-sport athlete is a county champion, two-time county finalist, two-time regional finalist, sectional finalist and three-time state qualifier and finalist as a wrestler … Honor roll student."
Heflin now joins running back Jamie Felix, wide receiver Juju Lewis, offensive linemen Wing Green, Elias Cloy, and Tyler Gibson, defensive linemen Kyle Kennard, Bryston Dixon, Ezra Odinjor, Jason Moore, and Malcolm Pugh, and cornerback Kenan Johnson as players that have entered the transfer portal from Georgia Tech.
Heflin, Cloy, Dixon, Odinjor, and Pugh were all members of the 2023 recruiting class.
Best of luck to Ashton wherever he lands!
Georgia Tech has made five impactful additions through the portal, all at positions of need. They landed a commitment from MTSU guard Keylan Rutledge (an all-conference guard), tight ends Jackson Hawes (Yale) and Ryland Goede (Georgia and Mississippi State), linebacker Jackson Hamilton (Louisville), and cornerback Warren Burrell (Tennessee). I think that all five guys will be instant impact players and at minimum, will bring experience.
