Sorry for the multiple threads, but Kelly to Virginia Tech is picking up steam.
This would be a huge land for VT, if it happens, and a huge blow to UVA who was once the favorite for Kelly's talents.

Crystal Balls seem to be trending today for VT to land Kelly.

My gut says it's us or Clemson.
The Clemson guy on 247 just put in a CB to VT.... Apparently, he's not a take at Clemson or PSU now.
Florida State /s
Can he skip a year and play immediately?
We're stealing Kelly over PSU, Clemson, etc. The world isn't ending every time we lose one of these battle. #InFuenteITrust
I don't think he'd be considering us at all if our CB depth didn't just get completely nuked but I'll take it
I don't think that has anything to do with it . He won't be here till next year Adonis would be gone anyway and Webb would still be here .
Not necessarily over them...
Word is he's not at take at PSU and Clemson wants him to play S. He wants to play CB. I'm still a little skeptical of him actually signing come December, but fingers crossed - he's very good. Right now this feels a bit more like a 'fall into lap' than 'steal'
Man that came out of nowhere he was all PSU crystal balls then I saw a trend to Clemson the other day . I had no idea VT came back into the picture . He hasn't even been mentioned in recruiting thread in a long time . Be a great get for Cb.
Edit:
For whatever reason it appears neither Clemson or penn st are accepting his commitment. Not sure whether that's because of the position he wants to play or academics or what.
Clemson and academics don't often run into each other in the same sentence.
According to US News Clemson is a slightly better school than Tech so...
I was reading that he might not be a take at Clemson and PSU, prompting us the opening to skyrocket back into the mix, any idea what time his commitment is?
9:30 this morning.Edit: Apparently the countdown on 247 that made it seem like 9:30 was not correct. In fact it is now counting up.
Thanks Wartooth - sorry to steal your twitter posts this morning for a new thread :)
it's cool. you can cut me in on whatever you make off it
Don't you go and spend it all on some fancy record player
Is there a link to his announcement?
Oh there's a thread for this now. I'll add what I just put on the Recruiting thread:
He saw the implosion here over Ford and wanted to recreate it. He's convinced the insiders he's committing here before announcing PSU
/s but at the same time the way this off season is going it would be par for the course.
I bet poor Joe is having to prepare a commitment article last minute as opposed to days/weeks ahead of time like usual.
The only key elements there are the word "committed" and the name.
Article Preview:
Oh boy.
*finger crossing intensifies*
CB's now 48% VT lean...
EDIT: 52% now for VT
This means I can believe them, right? They only mean something if they're going our way.
Anyone know if there will be a stream for his commitment?
Ok I haven't checked TKP in a while so what happened/changed? Seems like this was all PSU the whole time til now? I know, sounds exactly opposite of Ford lol
Virginian-Pilot has a live feed up
edit: cmon guys ^^^^^^^^
link please?edit: see below... In all fairness, the link text color doesn't stand out very well
That's the best I've been able to find so far.
It's in the comment.
thanks
He comin or nah?
WHY DONT WE DO THIS MORE OFTEN?
..but our hats not even on the table....
THE FAKE OUTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LETS GO!
Def Leppard hoodie is pretty far down the list of what I'd expect a HS football star to wear to his commitment ceremony in 2018.
He was channeling that retro-one-armed-drummer-wearing-a-VT-shirt-in-that-one-music-video vibe
IT GON BE THE HAT FROM UNDER THE TABLE, RIGHT?
Edit: WE BIG DOGS NOW
LOVE the no hat move!!! hahaha
Gave me a heart attack at first like i got my hopes up then not even a hat on the table shit
LET'S GO
Welcome Home Cam'Ron!
GOOD NEWS I FORGOT HOW GOOD IT FEELS
lol
"We are... all in... at Virginia Tech"
Virginia Tech!
Wow!
Enter Sandman!
That was so much the coolest announcement!
At least we got a little good news today.
He initially grabbed the Penn State hat and I almost threw my phone across the room.
Is this real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality.
No escape from reality.
Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Potato.
via GIPHY
neat
Hopefully we keep him, but I like that we kind of got one out of nowhere. Let's GO!
Good distraction from the other news dropping later today.
This feels to good to be true
Good news???? GOOD NEWS!!!
dudes in the crowd were like...
Hopefully he's good and pissed at PSU and Clemson and doesn't want to take their calls anymore.
This kid has a ton of talent and I am happy he has picked the Hokies!
With so many good in-state corners I was going to be bummed if we didn't land one. First we start trending for darkhorse surprise Payoute and now we get a commit from Kelly... #DBU looking like it will be in good hands.
Coming into TKP right now after not checking it all morning
I did the same thing. I saw that someone made a thread for Cam'ron Kelly' s commitment date and thought "who cares we didn't even make his top 8
