Adams had 95 tackles, 17 tackles for a loss and 10 sacks last year as a junior for South Pointe, a football powerhouse that has won three straight state championships and is the alma mater of former South Carolina star and current NFL defensive end Jadeveon Clowney.
James Shibest was Adams' primary recruiter
Here is Eli's Twitter
Welcome to the Hokies...at 6'3 230 pounds, could be a good one.

Was waiting for this to be posted. Glad he came to the good guys!
By the way..
What's up with all these out of state grabs??
Weak in state class
Weak is too strong a word. Handful of good players then a drastic drop.
More watered down than lance armstrongs piss
Here are the Virginia Rankings for 2018 from 247
Not quite as good as 2017. Maybe fuente's strategy is to look elsewhere for this class and come back in 2019. Looks like we are still in it for Ronnie Walker from Hopewell, 4-Star recruit. Last year we got a couple of late 3-star guys from the state. For 2018, lots of uncommitted guys left from VA so there is still a chance.
Yea, the only 2018 VA players I am really keeping my eye on are RB Ronnie Walker, WR Dillon Spalding, WR/TE James Mitchell, LB Keshon Artis, and possibly NC State commit De'von Graves depending on how our DB class pans out. If we can haul in those guys I think it would be a great representation from VA for this year.
So... South South Virginia?
I am so pumped about this kid...I think he's gonna be special. Great weekend to be a Hokie!
The guy is really 6ft 220? Based off what his 247 profile says
Me, while watching Eli Adams film.

Relentless... legs like pistons that allow him to run off blocks. Yes, he is small. But, he has a frame where he will likely play around 240 and has long arms. He will be a DE. He looks like a 2002-2004 VT DE- not the most refined pass rush technique, but great legs, relentless, getting through gaps then getting big and disruptive. He will need to get better with his hands, but he his first step is electric and he just keeps those legs churning to shake free. I love this pick up.
Darryl Tapp mold?
If you have not see Eli Adams film, here is a spoiler. These are his legs on every play.

This.
Going to be fun watching Adams and Zion DeBose play "meet me at the QB"
Add in Garbutt, Glaze and Porcher and these last two cycles have Wiles sleeping well.
TKP Staff, How do I get the Twitter Feed posted?. Looks like one of you guys updated it to reflect his twitter post. I was trying to figure out how to do it.
I'm not staff, but if you're on Twitter on your desktop, it gives you the option to copy the code to embed a tweet

Thank you, i think I got it on the next Post...GO TKP Fam
So, question for those who follow closely: was this one a surprise? Doesn't look like Joe had a story ready to launch on cue.
Love getting linemen. It's a spread world now, but to my mind the trenches are still the key.
I bet he has a story in the can but he is taking the weekend for himself. A full time TKP reporter would be able to post but we need a few more TKPC members like us to make it happen.
So what you're trying to say is...
JOIN TKPC?!?!
Just signed in to see the top 3 posts in the Tracker 3 separate commitments from the last couple days
It's been a really good week.
From Rock Hill, easy ride up I-77 to the 'Burg, a whole lot of good football played down there. Start a pipeline 'n' keep 'em coming.
Can't stress this enough. As a graduate of Northwestern HS, I can tell you this is one of the country's best area for football talent.

Nice article, thanks for posting.
We're grinding down the road from you in Sparkle City......
Obligatory for anyone who has been in the upstate for any length of time.
Absolute Da General "Sparke City" (Kinda NSFWish I guess)
IT'S OFFICIAL! JOE HAS RUN OUT OF COMMITMENT THREADS! WE KNEW THIS DAY WOULD COME!
Just to stick it to us for being jerks about it (well, me anyway), Joe should post the MJ Walker article and just change the name. Nothing else (title, article text, pictures), just the name.
Wow! Excellent!
I like the way this is going!
