By M Day. Minnesota, Duke, Arkansas, Toledo and Akron have offered and he thinks Oklahaoma State is very close. Central Florida, Duke, Minnesota and Oklahoma stick out, but Georgia Tech is his "dream school".

7/29

By M Day. Committed to Duke. Coach Cutcliffe made Putnam feel at home, and the Duke staff recruited him the hardest thrughout the process. He says he is getting the best of both worlds (academics and football) and is unsure if he will take any official visits besides one to Duke.

Sandy Creek defensive end Brandon Putnam, who has committed to Duke, said he is hearing from Georgia Tech.

The 6-foot-3, 230-pound Putnam is a member of the AJC’s The Georgia Top 150

“I’m still being recruited by them,” Putnam said. “I don’t know what is taking so long for an offer. I know I’m on their [recruiting] board. They want to see some senior film.”

Tech has strong ties with Sandy Creek, alma mater of former Yellow Jackets All-America wide receiver Calvin Johnson.

“Tech has a great program, Calvin has nothing but great things to say about it,” Putnam said.
