For Kicks:
Gerris could easily play either inside or outside linebacker in either the 4-3 or 3-4. Realistically, he could become a defensive end as well.

"He's the consumate team player. He didn't fit the mold of a defensive end, but he went in there and played really well there last year. And he'll come back and have a great year as a linebacker this year."
- Chan Gailey, GA Tech Head Coach

"We're trying to not sit him in one spot. We're trying to let him do all the different things he can do - come up on the line and rush the passer, back off inside and run to the ball. We're going to put him in position to do the things he does best."
- Chan Gailey
