PHOENIX — Kansas City kicker Harrison Butker still follows the Georgia Tech program and believes that new coach Brent Key can get things turned around.
“I’m hoping that he can develop young men into great men,” Butker told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Wednesday. “Obviously, we want to build that culture of winning. Hopefully, get to the Orange Bowl, like the team that I was on in 2014 did. Win an Orange Bowl and obviously win a national championship. Get Georgia Tech back on the map.”
While Tech has gone through some down time in the post-Paul Johnson era, rival Georgia has ascended to national-powerhouse status with back-to-back national championships.
“Obviously, you want Georgia Tech to be great and be in those situations that Georgia is,” Butker said. “But I don’t know, I have a lot of teammates that have played for Georgia. I’m happy for Georgia to have that success as well.”
