Was this area of Virginia one of Gillespie's areas of recruiting? If so Gillespie will prove to be a great hire in the recruiting aspect of things.

Man hearing this kid talk about the practice and the team atmosphere gets me pumped. I think we have some good things in store next recruiting class as long as we can get a good product on the field in the fall.

This is a solid commit, he should really be a 4 star recruit and more than likely will be after his senior year of high school, i give an A+ to the our scouting and recruiting we are doing

It's hard to find a good natural center. Good pickup IMO.

Usually when I see three stars I yawn, but this guy looks like a solid commit. Great news.

This is a tough loss for WVU. His parents are season ticket holders and the hope was he would play in front of his folks in Morgantown.

Signing day is a long way away. Nothing is set in stone yet. We're happy to get a commit though. We need offensive lineman.

Thx for swinging by and for the info. This is a big need for us, but as said, NSD is a long way away.
