Georgia Tech Athletic Director Departs, Baseball Faces NCAA Regional Challenge
Georgia Tech is searching for a new athletic director after J Batt announced his departure to become the AD at Michigan State, leaving the position open for the second time in three years. Batt's tenure saw significant progress, including major hires for football and basketball, a $500 million fundraising initiative called Full Steam Ahead, and a record $78.2 million raised in fiscal year 2024. Academically, student-athletes thrived with a 94% graduation rate and a record GPA in spring 2025. In NCAA baseball, Georgia Tech, despite being the ACC regular season champions, was controversially not chosen as a host site for the tournament, while Ole Miss was selected. Georgia Tech won its first-round game decisively against Western Kentucky, while Ole Miss lost their opening game, raising questions about the fairness of host site selections. This situation highlights the Yellow Jackets' strong performance and suggests they deserved hosting rights over Ole Miss, which struggled early in the tournament.
