Landstown’s (Virginia Beach, VA) 6-0, 195-pound 4-star wide receiver Damon McDaniel had a great official visit to Virginia Tech. The highlight of the visit was the walk, which made a significant impression on a prospect rated as one of the top wide receivers in the country.

This official visit was McDaniel’s second, as he made an official to Florida in September. Asked to compare the Virginia Tech game experience with the one at Florida, McDaniel replied “I would say the game atmosphere for Florida was better, but what happened before the game at Virginia Tech really got me. I wasn’t expecting that. I didn’t think that many people knew me. They were saying they want to have me at Virginia Tech and to come to Virginia Tech. There were signs up everywhere.”

When asked if the pre-game experience had a big effect on him, McDaniel replied “yeah, it did. I feel like they wanted me to be there and that’s something I’m looking at.”

McDaniel, who spent a lot of time over the weekend with fellow recruits LeSean McCoy and Vidal Hazelton, came away with a favorable impression of Virginia Tech’s players and coaches.
