Claytor, Dwyer choose Jackets

By MATT WINKELJOHN , TODD HOLCOMB

Published on: 09/01/06 Georgia Tech's recruiting efforts hit two out of the park Thursday as a pair of the state's top prospects, Kell High running back Jonathan Dwyer and Gainesville offensive tackle Nick Claytor, committed to the Yellow Jackets.
They are the 13th and 14th commitments for Tech coach Chan Gailey and his staff. Both are rated four-star prospects by Rivals.com, giving Tech four. The others are Charlton County wide receiver/defensive back D.J. Donley and Jacksonville defensive lineman Jacoby Monroe.
"It's a monster with an exclamation point," Rivals recruiting analyst Jeremy Crabtree said. "This is a big, big deal for Tech. They're both top, top kids that were offered by all kinds of great programs. Dwyer was recruited hard by Georgia and Florida. Claytor is going to bounce back after maybe a little bit of a down junior year. It's a home-run day for Georgia Tech."
In part because of NCAA sanctions, Tech's 2007 signing class will be relatively small, likely between 16 and 20 players. But Gailey & Co. could hardly have dreamed of doing better in state than they have. Dwyer, who rushed for 1,898 yards and 24 touchdowns as a junior, couldn't stop dreaming.
For months, he had dreams of sitting at a news conference on signing day with a half-dozen college caps to choose from. In a dream three weeks ago, Dwyer looked around the room and saw friends and family wearing blue and gold.
"That just gave me a vision of the best place to go," he said after choosing Tech over Florida, Georgia, Auburn and LSU. "This is a relief. Now, I can just relax and play and enjoy my senior year."
The 6-foot-1, 200-pound Dwyer, who stands to become Tech's most highly regarded in-state running back signee since Joe Burns of Thomas County Central in 1998, has been invited to play in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl game Jan. 6 in San Antonio. He finished second in the state 100 meters in 10.89 seconds.
Claytor kept in touch during the recruiting process with other Tech pledges, including Logan Walls, Kyle Jackson and Steven Threet.
"Tech has a great coaching staff, the recruiting class is great so far and I can get a great education," the 6-6, 320-pound tackle said after choosing Tech over Florida State and Auburn. "I have NFL aspirations, and Tech can help with that, too."
