Players unsure about commitment to Tech | ajc.com
Quote:
Neither Taylor, Pridemore, Hawkinsville defensive back Kamaron Riley or Hilliard, Ohio, linebacker B.J. Machen said they were backing out of commitments. Yet none said they were certain to honor pledges, either.
They had not heard from Tech coaches Monday evening, but had either heard from Radakovich or received a message from him within hours of Gailey's firing.
Riley, who committed June 12 and is in line to follow recent Hawkinsville High players Robert Hall, Trey Dunmon and Jim Henry to Tech, said, "It's still the same to me. It affects me a little bit, but not too much. I like the people. I would like to see the rest of the coaching staff [retained].
"The athletic director called while I was at basketball practice, and left a message. He just told me about what had happened, and that they'll move on and try to provide a better football program."
Machen, who commited July 5, said he didn't know if his plans will change.
"I don't know the answer to that yet," he said. "Me and my dad just got to talk about it, and my family needs to talk about it. I'm supposed to [make an official visit] in January. I kind of committed to both [Gailey and Tech]. I like coach Gailey, and I liked what the school has to offer.
