ATLANTA (Ticker) -- Georgia Tech has lost one of its top
players from its 2007 recruiting class.
According to a report from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution on
Friday, wide receiver D.J. Donley has left school and said he
will transfer.
The report stated that new Yellow Jackets coach Paul Johnson had
approached Donley about switching to safety shortly after his
arrival. Donley, however, claims that had nothing to do with
his decision.
"It was just personal stuff," Donley told the newspaper. "It
had nothing to do with (the suggested position change)."
The Folkston, Georgia native played in all 13 games last season,
mainly serving on special teams. He made eight catches for 101
yards and a touchdown with a pair of blocked punts and a fumble
recovery.
Donley becomes the second Georgia Tech receiving weapon to
transfer this offseason. Tight end Colin Peek, who had 25
receptions last season, transferred to Alabama.
