Doin us a Favor

Mr. Favors, I must say, you made the right choice.  About 15 minutes before tipoff of tonight's Tech-Duke game at the Thrillerdome (a 70-56 win by the Dukies, btw - lame), the nation's top recruit out of South Atlanta HS verbally committed to play for the White and Gold next year. 

If nothing else, this will bring some "hope" to the program and may silence CPH's critics for at least another year.  Granted this season hasn't exactly been spectular, but things have gotta be looking up for next year with Favors on the court. 

You've got to be excited about a guy like Favors who is an absolute beast down low.  In fact, in a recent game against Eagles Landing, Favors scored 30 points in just three quarters of play - no doubt with most of the ELCA team focused on stopping him.

I've posted two of his highlight videos below.  You can look up more videos here.

Congratulations on choosing Georgia Tech as your future home, Derrick!  We look forward to what you will bring to the table next year, even if it is your only year in the white and gold!
