Senior Allen only Johnson recruit on All-ACC team


Distinct characteristics of this year's Georgia Tech team have been its snooze-inducing lack of playmakers and its questionable level of BCS-caliber talent, resulting in contentious barnburners against teams like Kansas, Wake Forest, and Duke.  That fact was only unscored by the naming of the 2010 All-ACC football team released by the conference on Monday.

Georgia Tech placed a mere three players on either the first, second, or "honorable mention" teams, only one of which can be fully credited to Johnson, senior B-back and Louisville transfer Anthony Allen.  Two of the three players were offensive linemen.  Omoregie Uzzi was a member of Johnson's first class in 2008, but was primarily recruited by Gailey prior to Johnson's arrival.  Senior center Sean Bedford originally walked-on under Gailey and was inherited by Johnson.

Georgia Tech tied Duke(3-9) for the third fewest players included, ahead of only Virginia(4-8) and Wake Forest(3-9).

Members on the first, second, or honorable mention squads by school:

Virginia Tech: 13
Miami: 10
North Carolina: 7
Clemson: 6
Maryland: 6
Florida State: 5
NC State: 5
Boston College: 4
Duke: 3
Georgia Tech: 3
Virginia: 2
Wake Forest: 0
