Virginia Tech 2013 Recruiting Target List

[hokiehi21]

@marcdavissports: Hermitage RB Derrick Green says he'll narrow down his list to his top 5 college choices sometime this week.

Do you think VT will make the cut?

 

[sparko]

I'd be surprised if they didn't make the cut but who knows...I'd say that michigan, auburn, and Bama will be in there...maybe OL miss too?

Probably. Michigan seems to be in the front this week with Auburn and Ole Miss. Have also heard a little bit about Georgia but I doubt he goes there. Michigan,ole miss,Auburn, Alabama,VT IMO

Haven't really heard much about Green being on campus at all this summer. Has he unofficially visited Blacksburg?? I would imagine with the proximity he has at least been there in the last year. If we make the cut, hopefully we can get an official during gametime..

Yes he has visited and that is the reason we are still in this, we were written off before the visit. We are working hard to get him back on campus for a game

@rivalsmike
Florida RB Greg Bryant has de-committed from #Oklahoma according to his dad. Wants to play in SEC, #Auburn and #Gamecocks on top.

Maybe he'll go ahead and commit soon to Auburn and possibly take them out of the running for Green's services. Not that I think Green would shy away from competition but based on Alabama's stable of 5* running backs, I'd be a little surprised if he went there. It would be gutsy. Bama is loaded at RB....they're loaded everywhere though.

Green Update

Greg Bryant and Derrick Green could go to Auburn, Michigan

 

[JPCVT]

Wyatt Teller continues to retweet folks saying "Join Kendall, top 5 defense, blah blah blah", which is reassuring on the one hand, but also makes me realize I am analyzing a kid's mouse clicks.

The joys of following recruiting.

Sounds like he is getting a little testy at VT fans tweeting him? Tired of the process much? From what I am reading, sounds like much of the rest (of Virginia's best) may just commit sooner than later (Reid, Hamilton, Burks, Smoke, maybe even Teller and Green)..I can't see any of these guys (minus MAYBE Green) going to signing day..schollies are getting much more scarce later in the process these days, they better shit or get off the pot.

Getting Teller would mean this class couldn't have realistically been any better. I would be extremely pleased

Come on, you have to have SOMETHING else to bitch about if that happens.

 

[JPCVT]

I know Teller is a hard read, but anyone have any updates? Seems to be pretty quiet. The longer it goes, the more I think it favors VT. Hopefully we can get him and his family up for a game.

Very quiet

So with all the DB commits we have, you have to figure Newsome will start out on the offensive side of the ball, probably WR but possibly TB if we miss on both Reid and Green, right? It is his stated preference, and we were recruiting him as an ATH, not as a DB, which indicates the coaches' openness to using him wherever most needed.

Holland Fisher is up to the #28 spot in the 247 rankings....right on the cusp of being a 5*

He will start at WR, could transition to Safety if needed but will start as a WR

Fantastic!

while kendall fell 3, down to 15...

but bucky shot up from 219 to #55, has he even camped at all or anything this summer to warrant that jump?

I think you are getting Rival's and 247's rankings confused. Kendall never got that high on 247's rankings (I think he got up to #9 once.) ....and he is still #3 on Rival's rankings.
