Virginia Tech Keeping in Contact With Class of 2019 Offensive Lineman Xavier Truss

Class of 2019 offensive tackle Xavier Truss has only taken a few visits so far, but he’s already getting a good idea of what he finds appealing.

Truss, a rising senior at Bishop Hendricken Catholic High School in Warwick, R.I., has future visits planned. Still, Truss isn’t rushing anything in his recruitment. A decision is still likely well off, though he continues to look into any new schools that come into the picture. An offer on Monday by Florida State brought Truss’ offer total to 16.

“I want to find good people,” Truss said. “I want to feel comfortable there. Even when I’m researching, I like seeing good stuff pop up at the school, nothing like guys getting in trouble. I want a nice staff, guys doing what they’re supposed to. I’m not trying to be around people who are doing wrong.”

Virginia Tech is also among Truss’ more recent offers. The 6-foot-7, 325-pound offensive tackle has already seen them play in-person, though it wasn’t in Blacksburg.
