Last week we passed on a report from Atlanta Journal-Constitution recruiting reporter, Michael Carvell, that Georgia Tech was to get a visit from top JUCO prospect and former NC State signee, Kenderius Whitehead. The visit with the Yellow Jackets staff and Whitehead went well on Friday, and now it’s being reported that he has given his verbal commitment to Tech.

Whitehead will be a tremendous edition as a weak side defensive end to this Yellow Jackets defensive unit, and brings Tech’s recruiting commitment number back up to 19 total.

The report on Whitehead’s commitment to Tech was tweeted by Clifford Browning (@topknotchopp) of amateur athlete consulting firm, Top Knotch Opportunities, LLC, who apparently has helped Whitehead on his path back to the big boy schools from the JUCO ranks.

That post was followed shortly by Kenderius posting this picture on his Instagram account:
