Buzz Williams

Buzz Williams picked up his second top recruit of the 2017 class this week when Wabissa Bede made his verbal commitment to the Hokies.  Bede blew up on the AAU circuit over the summer, and adding him into the mix with Nickeil Alexander-Walker gives Virginia Tech one of the best backcourt classes in the entire country.

Alexander-Walker and Bede give the Hokies the #18 recruiting class in the country per 247Sports.com.  Of all programs who have two commitments for the 2017 class, the Hokies rank fourth nationally.  Here are the other programs with two commitments…

#13 Western Kentucky
#16 Arizona
#17 Louisville
#18 Virginia Tech
#21 Texas
