Levonta Taylor of Ocean Lakes HS, the highest rated corner in the 2016 cycle according to 247 composite, is high on the Hokies. Despite not having visited Blacksburg since he was in 8th grade, he had this to say about DBU,
I remember that experience, took a picture with Frank Beamer. My biological dad is a big fan of Virginia Tech. One of my favorite corners, Kyle Fuller, went to the draft. I want to tell Virgnia Tech fans I am interested in Virginia Tech. I'm very interested in Virginia Tech. I don't want then to think I'm not interested because I haven't visited since back then.
Very promising to see that he's still considering us even though he hasn't even been on campus since middle school. Hopefully Torrian and company can convince him to join the good guys.

By signing day he should see how well a 5* thrives at VT with Kendall doing even more Fuller things.
I want Levonta Taylor to know that Virginia Tech fans are very interested in him too. Well be even more interested when he signs the LOI.
Come on down Taylor, we've done well with Taylor's that part of Virginia before...
Thats a very lucky hat, he should wear it more often
If anyone ever needs a turkey leg, just post this video. I will ALWAYS give a leg for this.
That will never get old.ever.
Make sure he knows about the 11 db defense, that will make sure he is in the fold!
Here's hoping. He already knows the DBU pipeline to league. With highly-rated talent like his, and Torrian's coaching, it's a perfect fit. Can't wait to hear about his official visit, whenever that will be.
It's great that DB recruits can continue to point at players in the league that they want to be like. First it was Hall, then Flowers, then Bam Bam and now Kyle. Not to slight any of our other DBs who are out there like Roc, Jayron, and others, but these are the guys who recruits are seeing in the spotlight and it all comes through us.
First sign Sweat, then sign this guy.
Its like the titles will just fall to our feet at that point.
This probably means nothing but 247 just listed Sweat as having "warmer" interest to VT and the rest of his five schools as just "warm" interest.
The Price is RIGHT, BITCH!
The reaction of Hoovians everywhere
but Ocean Lakes. . . . .
Yep...
His step dad is involved w/ the Thoroughbreds too
Oh well then the heck with him. Let's just write him off as a lost cause.
That's ridiculous you say?
Not saying to write him off but just providing some context. Hopefully VT gets the corner this year they are recruiting out of Ocean Lakes to get a positive voice in that community.
Before JC it seemed as if VT was frozen out of Oscar Smith about Boone's "lack of opportunity" at QB. Seems as if VT is frozen out of Ocean Lakes and the Breds b/c of not offering Cutler, it will pass soon hopefully.
Very good news!
The context of this gif...
Sadly, I don't even remember what ep this is from. The finale ruined HIMYM for me and I haven't given it much thought since then because it genuinely makes me so mad if I do.
Lets just say its the same gag they used before with the ping pong ball, just with confetti. And something tells me the girl was supposed to be Lily's doppelganger.
If I'm remembering correctly this was when they were picking baby names...
I believe this was Lily's stripper doppleganger's signature move.
EDIT: Alum07 beat me to it.
I actually never kept up with the show until I started taking the 11PM-3AM shift with my daughter when she was born in May and its reruns seemed easy to watch. I have absolutely no idea what happens and am not that invested in the show to really care.
Just VT getting that much interest from elite recruits makes me feel like
I like having interest from elites, I like it better when I land them
Taylor is near the top of my wish list of guys to interview, actually...he's getting tons of hype already and I always thought he seemed like a realistic guy for Tech to land. Now this makes it seem even more likely. Hopefully I get can in touch with him soon.
You're putting out great stuff. I can't wait for an article on him.
Edit: Something something Presto Chango
you can fix it
Just click on the upvote icon, stick your left leg out, and yell PRESTO-CHANGO.
Like magic, the down vote will turn into an up vote.
Great to hear! But with his current ties to OL and the Breds, I'll wait for him to visit again before I start getting my hopes up.
What's the source of the quote?
This currently may or may not be true, but its still funny
I know this might be a little bit of a no-no around here but I read it on the TSL Forum yesterday and they posted a story about it this morning.
I think it's fair enough to post a quote as long as you credit the original author / website.
I wonder if Marcus Davis' Ocean Lakes ties would be of any help to our recruitment of Taylor? I'm pretty sure he's the last player we've pulled from there. He had success at VT and made it to some NFL camps. Gotta get some ins. Too many good players coming out of that High School.
