Former Warrior Adam Gotsis knew when he left Gridiron Victoria for Division I College that he would need to work his backside off to earn a spot in Georgia Tech’s defensive system. That was a challenge he was ready for as he left his family & friends and boarded a plane to Atlanta.

Adam has shown exactly what hard work and persistence can do as he defied the odds very early in his career at Georgia Tech by avoiding red shirt and actually getting valuable game time in his rookie season. He never looked back after that.

Not only has Adam won a starting spot along the defensive line for the Yellow Jackets, but he has been an invaluable part of the defense and a leader on the team. NFLDraftScout.com have written an article after the Nation’s 16th-ranked Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets defeated rivals and 9th-ranked Georgia Bulldogs 30-24 (which can be found here) describing Gotsis as “a bit raw” with “untapped potential”.

Gotsis has had big role in the middle of the Yellow Jackets defense, so much so that opposition teams set their game plans and blocking schemes away from the former Warrior.

On December 6, Gotsis and his teammates take on reigning National Champion Florida State Seminoles in the ACC Championship Game. Get behind Adam Gotsis and his Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets!
