Virginia Tech Begins Recruiting Push Into North Carolina

By: Ricky LaBlue |

If you’ve been following Virginia Tech recruiting during the past 24-48 hours, you might have seen graphics like this popping up.

Today, Virginia Tech started a social media marketing campaign to recruit North Carolina. This is one of the graphics used. Perfect timing to borrow it for this series of articles!

Why, might you ask? There’s a ton of talent in the state of North Carolina, and Virginia Tech wants to bring some of those players to Blacksburg.

As we’ve said before, Virginia Tech is recruiting dozens of players from North Carolina in the Class of 2018, many of whom are high-level prospects. On Wednesday, Chris Coleman began a TSL Pass series on Virginia Tech’s push into North Carolina, focusing on the Greensboro area.

In an effort to establish a pipeline from the Tar Heel state, @HokiesFB on Twitter launched a massive campaign to help bring recruits to Virginia Tech.

The Virginia Tech recruiting staff sent a similar graphic to their 2018 recruits.

The staff has even enlisted the help of current Virginia Tech players from the state of North Carolina.

How much of an impact will something like this make? That’s debatable, but one thing isn’t — Virginia Tech has made North Carolina a priority on the recruiting trail, and it’s likely going to stay that way.

  1. Recruiting sees to be at a much more professional & focused level since Fuente team took over. We’ll see enhanced recruiting results as success on gridiron is confirmed. 5-Stars will appear on our roster once again – hopefully soon! I’m glad I am a Hokie Fan.

  2. Frank laid the foundation, set the table. Now, coach Fuente is taking VT Football to the next level.
    Looks like the entire football operation is beginning to gel into a well-oiled recruiting machine.
    Great time to be a HOKIE fan.

  3. Momentum begets momentum….success begets success. VT is absolutely onto something here, and I predict there will be another leg up in the signing of NC kids. Hats off to the coaching staff, marketing folks, and players who are helping this process.

  4. Strike while the iron is hot! This is great timing and it shows just how serious the staff is. Good times ahead!
