North Discusses VT Visit

North Stafford (Garrisonville, VA) recruit Antonio North was in Blacksburg this past weekend for his official visit to Virginia Tech. Tech fans don’t have to sweat out a decision from one of the state’s top offensive linemen, as North verbally committed to the Hokies last June.

“I had a great time,” North said of his official visit experience. “I got a chance to meet a couple of recruits such as Demetrius Taylor, Cody Grimm and Eric Davis. I was hosted by Duane Brown and I had a chance to meet the rest of the team. I talked to Xavier Adibi, Jimmy Williams and Roland Minor. They were all great guys. I had a lot of fun.”

It may be easy to guess what the best part of the trip was for the 6-4, 310-pound prospect.

“The food,” North said with a big laugh. “Seriously though, the best part was everything. I met with some advisors who gave us a feel for the college life. The experience of getting to know the players and seeing what college life is like was just a great time. Demetrius Taylor is a great guy and we got along really well.
