Virginia Tech 2015 Recruiting Target List

[awaz]

Sweat did a chat thing on ESPN.com. Not too much news, but here are some interesting parts.

"I will probably announce my decision a week or two after my final official visit. I was thinking about announcing at The Under Armour All-America Game or at my school."

"Early playing time is definitely something I want to do. It's my goal. To be an freshman playing a lot. When I began the recruiting process, I wanted to be an SEC football player. I thought the level of competition would best prepare me for the NFL and people wouldn't question the level of competition I was playing against. I got that out of my mindset now. I think all the top schools prepare you, and if you play at a top school and have success -- people won't question your level of competition."

"Some schools definitely talk the Jadeveon Clwoney thing, and say I can be that type of player. Some schools say they need me to help them get to the next level and win the national championship. I do like the Jadeveon Clowney comparisons, but I really like schools telling me they think I can help get them over the top."

"My visit to Ohio State is when the Buckeyes play Virginia Tech."

it'd be great to win that game in dramatic fashion. #recklessoptimism

Here's an article on high 4* DE Jalen Dalton. A quote from him states that he is down to VT, UNC, and possibly Miami. He also says he'll likely decide in August or September.

Titans? DE Dalton, ranked No. 90, sees no reason to wait - Winston-Salem Journal: Football

Nice pub... But I think this kid has been a UNC lean for quite some time. We'll see, but I'm not getting my hopes up at all on Dalton. I don't think he has even been on campus for awhile.

Agreed. Need to somehow land Sweat and Taylor.

Getting Cunningham would pay dividends in future classes as well.

I think I know what you mean, but how would it pay in future classes?

Getting back into Ocean Lakes would not suck
