6-2, 275-pound defensive lineman recruit Dwight Tucker plans to make his first official visit next weekend, when he will travel to Blacksburg to visit Virginia Tech. It will be the Oviedo (FL) star’s first ever experience at Virginia Tech, which has been hot on his recruiting trail since extending a scholarship offer this summer.

Tucker is also hoping to set an official visit to Tennessee soon.

“I’ll be coming to Virginia Tech on December 7th,” said Tucker, who says he does not have a favorite right now in his recruitment. “Tennessee has been trying to set up a date for me to come in December or maybe January. I want to visit both schools and then decide.”

Tennessee and Virginia Tech are the two main scholarship offers for Tucker, who has also been offered by Duke and Mississippi State, among others.
