Feb. 26-27 Visitor Roundup

Hey all- quick recruiting update here in lieu of a big old post.

The Hokies are holding another junior day, though on a smaller scale than the one earlier this month.

I started poking around to assemble another large list, but it would seem that only a handful of 2017 prospects will be making it to campus this weekend:

Jason Brown

George Brown

Tommy Christ

Dorian Etheridge

EJ Jenkins

Riley Locklear

Matt McKay

Diamonte Tucker-Dorsey

Though he didn't confirm it to me directly, it would seem that DB Devon Hunter, a major in-state target, will also be on hand.

A few notes about this group:

Only Hunter and Etheridge have offers of these guys, though that could certainly change after the coaches get a look at the rest.

The Browns and Jenkins hail from Fredericksburg's Chancellor HS. None of the trio have offers, but they share an alma mater with DE Yetur Matos, another top target for Tech. He's trying to set up an "intimate" visit down the line, according to one of his assistant coaches.

Christ has a family tie to the team. Matt Christ, a freshman offensive lineman, is his brother, so Tommy says he's seen the campus a number of times, including a pair of games last year. He's being recruiting by a variety of schools, but he noted that Tech was his "dream school" due to that familial connection.

McKay also called Tech his "dream school since I was five years old," so he's looking forward to the trip as well.

I'll be touching base with all these guys to see how the visits went next week, so keep your eyes peeled.

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
