  1. WOW……..What a way to start my Thursday – great news!!! Welcome to the Hokie Nation!!!!

  2. Excited about news but 4 star now that turns into a 5 star and 2018 is a long way off. Always get a little nervous with these long wait to sign commits. Hope we can keep him in the fold. Great talent!

    1. That’s somewhat understandable, but remember that the vast majority – like north of 90% – of commits sign with the school they commit to. Now, is that rate lower for the 5 star guys? Probably, but I would bet it’s still above 60%.

    1. Maybe he only plays at 10x his age. By the time he gets in campus he’d be in the 180-190 range. If he has a growth spurt in high school, he could be 6-3 220 by his Sr year here.

  5. I think this new coaching staff is surpassing our expectations…as long as we get the signatures. 😃
