The Virginia Tech coaches didn’t see video of Eagles Landing Christian Academy (McDonough, GA) tight end prospect Christian Reeves until this past Thursday. They were impressed with what they saw out of the 6-4, 215-pound rising senior, who followed up by showing off speed, quickness and talent at Saturday’s one-day camp.

“I felt pretty good about everything. I knew what I could do and I just showed them. I was pretty confident. I tested real well. Those are numbers I’m used to putting up.

After the camp, primary recruiter Torrian Gray took Reeves over to head coach Frank Beamer, who had good news for the rising senior. Virginia Tech does not have many scholarships to give in the 2011 class, but Reeves was offered one of the spots Saturday.
