Georgia Tech QB signee arrested

Georgia Tech quarterback signee Jaybo Shaw of Flowery Branch was arrested early Sunday morning on a charge of underage drinking, a misdemeanor.

Shaw was arrested at 12:30 a.m. and released the same day on $500 bond, Hall County jail records show.

Shaw was the first player to commit to play for Paul Johnson after Tech hired Johnson as coach last December. Shaw ran for 1,500 yards and 21 touchdowns as a senior after throwing for 2,700 yards and 28 touchdowns as a junior. He was No. 10 on Rivals.com’s national list of dual-threat quarterbacks, and No. 33 among prospects overall in Georgia.

Shaw and his father, Flowery Branch coach Lee Shaw, declined comment late Monday evening.
