CoachT423 18 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 What do you all think about all the D1 TALENT in the SWVA area right now? I'm not from here but I feel like this is best collective group of athletes the area has produced in a long time. You Got Martin Lucas committed to ASU Trenton Adkins will be playing P5 ball as well. Josh Herndon holds 1 or 2 D1 offers I can see him playing at the FCS FBS level easily. Then you have 2022 guys. Brody Meadows is a Top 100 Recruit in the Nation along with Zay Bradshaw who picking up P5 Offers as well. Sage Webb picked up his 1st offer from Morgan St I think this week or last. He got invited to the ESPN 300 ELITE Underclassmen Combine hes gonna really make a name out there. 6 guys from the area should be playing on TV on Saturdays so far and there could be a few more. That's not including all the talent Bluefield put out last year. redtiger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham-VT Fan 46 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 Speaking of talent at Bluefield, it appears that Isaiah Johnson moved to the left coast. Had no idea he had moved, but I had seen rumors it may happen. https://247sports.com/Player/Isaiah-Johnson-46050757/ CoachT423 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As bad as Tech is recruiting right now they should be in every living room in Southwest Virginia begging kids to come. They need bodies and I would rather those bodies be Southwest Virginia kids....but ASU has a beautiful campus in so many different ways!

VT's AD mentioned that they will be putting more of an investment in recruiting by increasing their staff so that should help. Tech makes a living off of player development. While it would be nice to get more four and five star recruits the Hokies have been successful at getting the hungry 3 stars who have a chip on their shoulder and turning them into good players.

CoachT423 18 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 Prince is a VERY SPECIAL talent!!!! Beem coaching him since he 1st got to the US when he was 6 family came over from Liberia. If you get the chance drive down to Jonesborough if they have a season it's well worth it. This is the most TALENT the Tri Cities and SWVA have put out in a LONG While. Tri Cities has about 3 or 4 guys who will sign D1 Deleted Account 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
