South Florida and Virginia Tech continue to lead the way for D.J. Reid, a versatile rising senior athlete out of Thomas Dale (Chester, VA).  And both schools are finding creative ways to express their interest.

“Neither school is letting off the gas,” Reid said.  “South Florida sent me like 20 little cards.  You flip through them really fast and there is message about how much they want me to come there.  Coach (Shane) Beamer sent me a picture from the beach.  It was of a sign that said “DJ” on it.  They are getting very creative.”

Had the 6’0″, 208-pound standout been able to visit Virginia Tech and South Florida in June, he likely would have made a commitment by now.  But he has yet to take those visits, and he isn’t sure when he’ll be able to do so.  He is still hoping to make those visits soon, and presumably pick one of the two schools soon after.

Reid has been to Virginia Tech several times.  He attended camp in Blacksburg last July, which is when he received the offer from the Hokies, and he returned for what was supposed to be the Spring Game in April.  Reid would like to return to Blacksburg for one more look before he commits.
