Virginia Tech has extended a scholarship offer to Southeast Raleigh (Raleigh, N.C.) junior quarterback Gabriel Henderson . The 6-1, 190-pound signal caller received the news yesterday evening, when he spoke with Tech quarterbacks coach Mike O’Cain, who is also serving as Henderson’s primary recruiter.

Henderson’s initial reaction to the Tech offer was one of excitement.

“I don’t have any favorites, but [Tech] has been high on my list throughout the process,” Henderson said. “I didn’t know an offer would come so soon. I was shocked when I called Coach O’Cain. My coach told me to call him. I did and he told me that the coaches had a meeting and they want me. He asked if I would come to their junior day next week with 12 other prospects.”

Henderson does plan to visit Virginia Tech for its junior day and that will be the first experience he has ever had at Virginia Tech. This weekend, he’ll go to Clemson on Saturday and East Carolina on Sunday and feels there is a good chance he doubles his current offer total.
