Back on the Recruiting Trail

Virginia Tech has hosted two junior days since we had a talk about the specific state of Virginia Tech's recruiting for the 2017 season. Currently we've got two commitments, Tyjuan Garbutt and Devante Smith, a four star DE and a three star safety, respectively. Obviously we're gunning for more- a ton more. The roster has a total of 24 juniors and redshirt juniors, and, barring medical redshirts for whatever reason, those guys have to be replaced.

Since the first junior day (mostly an in-state affair) there's bit a bit of a troubling trend. Two of the top prospects in Virginia- Eric Crosby, a DT from Ocean Lakes, and Khalan Laborn, a running back from the same, have trended heavily out of state in 247's crystal ball predictors.
