Availability Report Archive

Every ACC availability report for Georgia Tech in 2026, kept after the game so you can see who was listed out, and for how long.

Updated November 5, 2026 • 6 ACC games • 33 players listed at least once

How the reports work

Since 2025, the ACC has required availability reports for conference games. Nonconference games are exempt. In 2026 there are four reports per game: an initial report on Wednesday, updates Thursday and Friday, and a final report about two hours before kickoff. Each report lists only the players who might not play.

OUT
Will not play.
DBT
Doubtful. Used on 2026 reports, though it isn’t in the ACC’s 2025 policy.
Q
Questionable: less than a 50% chance to play.
PROB
Probable: more than a 50% chance to play.
GTD
Game-time decision. Used only on the game-day report.

This archive currently records the initial report for each game. Later updates will be added when they can be confirmed from a dated source.

Who has been listed out

Every player listed on at least one report, sorted by how many games he’s been listed out. A dot means he wasn’t on that week’s report. A player listed out before a game almost always misses it, but these are the reports, not confirmed game participation.

No report issued

  • Sep. 19: vs. Mercer (won 44–11). Nonconference game, so no ACC report.

Notes

  • Sources write “A.J. Hoffler” and “AJ Hoffler,” and “Kevin Peay Jr” and “Kevin Peay, Jr.” One spelling is used for each here.
  • Georgia Tech On SI’s Boston College report lists “Vincent-Carroll Jackson.” Every other report lists Vincent Carroll-Jackson.
  • Positions follow the most recent report. Earlier reports list Savion Riley, Fenix Felton and Will Kiker as DB and Ethan Mackenny as LT.
