Brookville (Lynchburg, VA) offensive lineman Devin Bolling knew something was up yesterday. He said his friend and teammate, Logan Thomas (a VT commit), was “smiling all day long.” He could tell the coaches knew something. He was right, and yesterday afternoon he was clued in that Virginia Tech had offered a full scholarship.

“I was pretty excited,” said the 6-5, 270-pound senior, who is Brookville’s starting left tackle. “I’m glad. I’m still going to talk it over with my mom and dad and coaches and see what school is best for me.”

Virginia Tech is the latest offer for Bolling, who also boasts offers from Boston College, Connecticut, East Carolina and Marshall, among others. Offensive coordinator Bryan Stinespring indicated that the Tech offer could be a regular offer or a grey-shirt offer depending on the scholarship numbers, but that does not make a difference to the Bees star.

If Bolling commits and is a grey-shirt, he would enroll in Blacksburg in January of 2010.
