By AccessWDUN Staff

ATLANTA — Two men’s basketball student-athletes will miss games due to rules violations that Georgia Tech self-reported to the NCAA last month, in accordance with a reinstatement decision issued by the NCAA.

Georgia Tech senior Tadric Jackson will sit out of three games and sophomore Josh Okogie will miss six contests, beginning with last Saturday’s season-opener versus UCLA in Shanghai, China. Jackson will be eligible to return to game action when Georgia Tech hosts North Texas on Friday, Nov. 24 and Okogie can make his 2017-18 debut on Sunday, Dec. 3 when the Yellow Jackets host Tennessee.
