Ricky DeBerry was a "must get" at OLB/DE for VT and specifically Shane to get back into Richmond recruiting with some success. Foster visited his home, Shane recruited him hard, he was one of the the top 5 players in Va and had VT in his "top 3" for a while. DeBerry ultimately signed with Big Shiny Object Oklahoma on signing day- and of course there was much hand wringing by VT fans, "another Va kid lost" "Shane can't recruit" "Beamer cant close on top players" "VT is stale in Va." etc etc. Well DeBerry never started for Oklahoma at OLB or DE. He barely played on defense and was eventually moved to H Back- where he barely played. He got his degree and is now pursing a grad transfer somewhere- likely G5 or FCS. Interesting story and recruiting in a nut shell really. None of these guys are can't miss, and one Richmond recruit won't make or break the program.
