Tony Clark brings old-school linebacker grit to Georgia Tech’s defense
Tony Clark stands out as a physical, assignment-sound linebacker with a reputation for playing downhill and setting the tone when Georgia Tech needs toughness in the middle. In the 2008 season, he was trusted to step into a starting role during injuries at the position, which says plenty about his reliability and football IQ. He’s the kind of defender coaches like because he can stabilize a unit, handle pressure, and do the dirty work that doesn’t always pop in the box score. For a team needing dependable, mature linebacker play, that’s a pretty attractive package.
