The will prep for a semester and re-apply, if they cannot qualify at that point they will either stay or look at other partial qualifier schools
harris was close though, right? so he should get in.

Harris I could see after a semester, Smith on the other hand could use a full year IMOharris was close though, right? so he should get in.
Harris should still be coming to Tech once his time at Fork Union is done. He'll be coached there by Mark Shuman's dad, which should keep Virginia Tech in good standing. I wouldn't worry about him leaving for somewhere else.
Edmunds will be a RB to start
Not saying he will change face Sint, but it is always possible. Agree that JS has a good relationship with Vt but that may not matter, especially from a kid from OOS.
As much as Shuman is respected, he isn't going to sway a recruit one way or another. He may try to encourage these kids to "honor" their promise and unofficial LOI but if they want to go elsewhere they will (see Lockhart). I would imagine who VT might pick up at RB in this class could negatively affect him resigning as well (say Green for instance). This all of course assuming he qualifies.
If Tech managed to pull Green, I wouldn't really mind losing Harris. With so much young running back talent already here though, I don't know how hard Tech is going to push for other backs besides Green.
What is the percentage of players who stay with VT after prepping?
Very high at FUMAWhat is the percentage of players who stay with VT after prepping?

id like to see this broken down oos/in state.
We have lost a couple at HMA correct? Mackey comes to mind. I believe our success has been pretty good there too. The location of these schools make it so much easier to stay in close touch with these guys during their prep journey. Honestly I don't know we don't try to get some the others to SECede from their prior commitment and join team VT. Maybe it's not Beams' style.
Wow.. That sounded Very effin Matt-like didn't it.
Sorry if this has already been asked, I've been out of the loop for the past two weeks since I moved and started a new job.
With Drew Harris prepping, does that mean one of our greyshirt candidates is gonna enroll in the summer? I'm thinking specifically of Jerome Wright because I think Thomas Smith was gonna prep anyway (FUMA?). Any other guys?
