Well that happened.
As reported by @RivalsFriedman 2015 DB Marcus Lewis has decommitted from the #Hokies— HokieHaven.com (@Hokie_Haven) December 4, 2013
There's a long time to go before 2015 kids can sign, so who knows what will develop.

IM aggravated about this. This kid is gonna be a stud. But he is 17 and prolly got caught up
Sucks but I think that he might still end up a Hokie. LONG time to go.
Didn't he commit like 2 weeks ago?
Keep in mind, Marshawn Williams decommited at one point.
I mean, he's a Defensive Back, I feel like we can replace DB's like him. We are DBU after all
yea but the one thing that's hard to replace is his size and physicality. They say he will have over 30 offers when is all said and done
But seriously, he has time to fix this error, if we can convince him to commit again.
Yea as much as it pains me (and baffles me) that someone doesnt want to become a Hokie, its hard to place much stock in recruits who wont be officially committing for another year plus.
2 things. First of all, he still might end up a Hokie. It's so long until signing day that we'll have plenty of time to recruit him again. Secondly, I don't worry about our DB recruiting. We always end up getting studs anyways. Whether that is Lewis or someone else, only time will tell.
Is there a 5th Fuller somewhere? I see him comment here sometimes...
Guys I really really hope this doesn't mean that a coach is about to leave. How many times do you see something happen like this, then like a week later, a coach takes a job somehwhere else, I really hope this doesn't mean Bud or Torian is leaving.....If not why else would he be doing this.
Not that it means much, but all of the coaches are out recruiting this week, as stand up as our staff has been I doubt that is the case.
I love that Bud doesn't have twitter. Of course he doesn't. Then that leads me to imagining bud trying to use twitter...which makes me smile.
Is this a Rob Ryan sighting?!!
I'm not sure what some of the angst is all about.
It's better that Lewis and his parents take the time to figure out what they want to do, rather than discovering at the last minute they want to go elsewhere.
This also allows TG the time to find more good quality 2015 DBs (which he's going to do anyway), regardless of whether or not Lewis decides to come to Tech.
In all honesty, probably for the better for all parties. The kid needs to take some more visits and go to some camps - figure things out. I feel sure he will come back to VT if it is right for him.
Better it happen now than signing day. I agree, I think that he likely got ahead of himself. I hope that he realizes that it ends up being like a multiple choice test; your first instinct is usually the correct one.
