Top GT recruit arrested

By Michael Carvell
One of the Georgia Tech’s top football recruits got into a little trouble on Thursday.
Mikell Lands-Davis, a 3-star running back from Alexander High School, was arrested and charged with misdemeanor possession of marijuana possession of less than one ounce, per the Douglas County jail records. He’s the second high-rated member of Georgia Tech’s 19-man football recruiting class for 2015.
Lands-Davis was booked around noon on Thursday, and released four hours later on a $1,000 bond. No further details were available.
The arrest was first reported by JacketsOnline.com’s Kelly Quinlan, who wrote “Georgia Tech has no policy in place that precludes Lands-Davis from signing with the Yellow Jackets.”
A couple of months ago, Lands-Davis committed to Georgia Tech over UNC, N.C. State, and Clemson. The 5-foot-10, 205-pound is rated as the state’s No. 53 overall prospect.
Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson cannot comment specifically on Lands-Davis per NCAA rules since he is still a prospective student-athlete.

CPJ will need this kid. I suspect that there will be a suspension .
Once again though GT is losing to the Dawgs at something.

I can't imagine how frustrating it is for GT fans to have CPJ as a coach.***

And to think, there was a sizeable contingent of CLEMSON fans that wanted PJ to come here when he left Navy.
We dodged a silver bullet with that one.

Lol @ " chose GT over offer from Clemson " .
Not likely to have been accurately stated.

He was at Dabo's camp last year. He has visited. He is a pretty solid running back and should be great in the triple dive shuck and jive of CPJ ...high or not.

Is This Accurate?

Not the arrest aspect of this story, but if the young man actually had a commitable offer from Clemson? Do we really recruit against Ga. Tech.?

Don't believe we were actively recruiting him

We closed down the RB slot awhile ago. I've never seen this guys name before.

Three-star?
Aug 22, 2014, 7:04 AM

The sad thing about this is that a 3* is one of their top recruits. How bad does that make the rest of the class?

That is how bad it has gotten at tech. Not even one 4 star in the whole class.

Stupid decision by this kid for sure because he does know the consequences but... It's 2014, why are we still arresting people for pot? Will we ever learn?
