Virginia Tech 2015 Recruiting Target List

[wildturkey]

Great pick up with Settle. We needed this one badly not just for position, but moreso to stop the trend of top talent skipping us over.

So Settle thinks he'll qualify by August. That would be a nice surprise if he can do it.

Yeah. A lot of "cloudy" CBs coming in on 247, particularly from some national and Bama guys. Nothing would surprise me at this point with Cager. And like others have said, until he signs it doesn't look like it will be over.
Not sure how I feel on someone like this?? Then again, all of this back and forth may be more of a product fr the "experts" who might not actually have a good educated opinion on someone. It's all a guessing game anyways.

I have often wondered why most of these recruits love the attention so much?? I wonder how many recruits just are that undecided at this point in the game or how many of them are just trying to screw with everyone's heads

4* DE just picked Tennessee. Can't hurt whatever chances we have with Taylor.

High 4* DE Kyle Phillips just picked Tennessee at the Army All-American game

Kyle Phillips

Someone tell Taylor to come where he'll see the field!!!

First thing he said when asked why not Bama was Brad Kayya

 

[HoHumHokie]

Keep recruiting him until signing day. Maybe getting Lawson will have an impact.

"What have the coaches told you about playing time?"
"If I come in and work, I have a chance at starting."

...about as predictable coach-speak as it gets.

The Tenn roster currently has 10 D-linemen Sophomores or younger, 8 LBs Sophomores or younger. Not including their ridiculous class this year.

Wish the best even if he doesn't come to Tech, but you're not going to be starting anytime soon at Tenn, brah.

You are probably right ck, but never say never.

If you told me Coleman Thomas, a 3 star country boy from a 500 kid enrollment, Single A school in SW Virginia would be getting significant reps and starting at times his true freshman season at an SEC school, I woulda told you, that was fucking crazy. But he did just that.

Speaking of Coleman.. How big would be have been the next couple years?? Not trying to pour salt on the wound, but damn what a miss. He looks like he will end up being pretty good. Easily a starter on our line next year.

Score another one for "The University of Virginia Tech".

 

[Sleepy T]

Huge get. Between him, Ford, and Durkin, one of those has to work out.

A 6'4-5" QB from Fla that can run and has a big arm. I like it! Top 40 in Fla is like Top 5 in VA.

 

[ckhokie]

He showed pretty impressive mobility on a long run in his first series. Then had a DT come in pretty much unblocked and batted it out of his hand for a fumble. The QBs are cycling through on series, so he hasn't had a pass attempt yet.

 

[hokiecat]

This class is closing nicely. A pair of 4* this weekend is great news. Great job by our staff closing the deal on some quality players.

"Between him, Ford, and Durkin, one of those has to work out." <--- I sure hope so. I'd rather not have another year of Brewer. The young man is tough but does not have much of an arm.

 

[hokiegrad]

Pat Allen decommitted from UGA. Lots of conflicting info out there on where he may go, but I've seen no indication that he's considering VT. Sounds like he looked really good in the Semper Fidelis so someone is getting a good late pickup.

 

[vtfan15]

Here are some sort clips of Lawson. Apparently he had several other beautiful deep balls dropped by WRs, and several other nice runs. I said a while back based on his senior highlights that I thought he threw a beautiful and accurate deep ball, which is something Brewer doesn't have. <iframe class="vine-embed" src="https://vine.co/v/OdIuxaVHQV1/embed/simple" width="600" height="600" frameborder="0"></iframe><script async src="//platform.vine.co/static/scripts/embed.js" charset="utf-8"></script><iframe class="vine-embed" src="https://vine.co/v/OdjKB2ZQU9b/embed/simple" width="600" height="600" frameborder="0"></iframe><script async src="//platform.vine.co/static/scripts/embed.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
