The love affair began back when Eric Kumah was a freshman. Though he wasn't yet the playmaking receiver known for winning jump balls and outrunning defenders, a Virginia Tech-affiliated Web site noted Kumah's potential by listing him as a player to watch in the 2016 class.
Ever since then, Kumah has had his eye on the Hokies, spurring a recruiting process that culminated Friday with the Forest Park rising senior committing to Virginia Tech during a ceremony.
"I was just remembering that (list), thinking about that, and when I went down there, they just treat me like complete family and it felt like home to me," Kumah said. "It's also in-state so my parents can come watch me play, some friends can come watch me play. So that's why I'm excited about going there and that's the reason I chose there.
Just goes to show how fan wesbites can influence a recruit early on (and perhaps at any time) during the recruting process. I'm glad TKP doesn't have the usual amount of knuckleheads that other sites do *cough cough*. Thanks to Joe / other staff for keeping it clean on this place!

Damn straight! This place is the best!
VT needs to get more talent from the DMV. it was beautiful watching Eric, Tim, Floyd hanging out at the announcement. Let the floodgate open!
So THIS is what recruiting success looks like!
We need more success stories like this one.
Who's on our watch list for 2019?
