A third major FBS program has offered a scholarship to Lake Taylor (Norfolk, VA) safety/wide receiver Mike Tyson . Lake Taylor head coach Hank Sawyer received a call from Virginia Tech recently, and the call was to inform the Titans coach that the Hokies were offering his standout rising senior. Tech joins the University of Virginia and Penn State in having offered the 6’2″, 188-pound prospect.

“I was asleep. It woke me up,” Tyson said with a laugh, recalling when he learned of the Tech offer. “It was a shock, for real, because I haven’t talked to them.”

Tyson plans to get to know the Tech coaches, the campus and football program a lot better in the near future.

“Probably in a week or two, I’m going to take an unofficial visit to Virginia Tech,” said Tyson, who does not plan on visiting any other schools or attending any other camps the rest of the summer. “I want to meet the coaches, of course, to see their business program because that’s what I want to major in, see the campus, the dorms, the facilities…all that.”
