Rudolph picked the Hokies over offers from Cincinnati, East Carolina, ODU, Marshall, and others. A car accident during his junior season of high school limited his development and hurt his recruitment, but he has made a full recovery.
At 6-4, 202, the Tech coaches like Rudolph’s frame and his overall athletic ability. From a size and athleticism standpoint, he compares favorably to Virginia Tech’s current starting free safety, Divine Deablo. Free safety is likely where Rudolph will begin his career in Blacksburg.
Rudolph is the sixth commitment of the 2020 recruiting class.

How about the quarterback
Good looking HS QB
Welcome to Hokie Nation. Enjoy your Senior year!
welcome to Virginia Tech, young man. we see great things ahead for you – whether at S or DE. maybe even at WR on goal line jump-ball situations.
( ( ( ps: what’s with the gt bracelet in the otherwise diabolic VT “born to be a Hokie” posterization ) ) )
Go Hokies!
Great under the radar recruit that we were on first because injury. Hokies see him as safety, he brings the thunder in his tape but needs to learn to wrap up. He could be a great wr too
Welcome LR.
Happy to have you on board. Welcome to the Hokie Nation!
Wonderful to have you aboard. You will always have your best days as a hokie!
Hmm that offer list
Welcome Lakeem, forget these types of comments…glad to have you join the Nation.
Bring it Lakeem!
Committed, not sighed. Some commit & then leave for what they think is a better offer. I’ll wait until he sighs his LOI.
If you’re truly worried about it you may want to wait until he signs. Sighing over it doesn’t do us any good. 😆
Wonder if he is good playing basketball ?
Like it. Early ID ahead of big dawgs in recruiting. 6’4” 202 now will be a solid 225 lb safety by his Soph year
Good get, what ever happened to him in the accident I hope he is good to go. Has been taught the proper way to catch passes.
We’l Put 70 lbs on him and move him to DE or DT
45 lbs and he’d be a heck of a rush DE
Or put 25lbs on him and call him bam-bam.
I’m good with either.
Was thinking the same thing!
Then we’d have Bam Bam the running back practicing against Bam Bam the FS!!
a nice addition ~ ! glad to have him join the HOKIES !
Greetings from the HOKIE Nation. Dang you are one tall dude for Safety.
Kam Chancellor was 6’3” & 225 lbs. His height will serve him well against tall receivers. Hopefully, he has the speed, toughness and football IQ to play safety like Kam.
Don’t forget about Aaron Rouse, 6’4″ 225 lbs, he had the toughness
Divine Deablo- 6′ 4″. This kid can run too.
Welcome to the Hokie Nation!
