Just got off the phone a few minutes ago with Lafayette (Va.) WR Hezekiah Grimsley. Another one of VT's newest offers that came last week.
Grimsley is up to six offers now. That list also includes Iowa State, Marshall, Syracuse, Old Dominion and Maryland. It sounds like the Hokies made an impression on Grimsley long before the offer came Feb. 25. He told me, "It’s a big deal. I’ve been wanting to go there since I was a little kid." Grimsley said he also likes the energy from the coaches and how VT recruits.
Assistant coach Galen Scott is the primary recruiter here and it looks like he'll now be recruiting the peninsula part of the 757, with Zohn Burden staying over on the other side of the bay. But with Scott, Grimsley said "We talk like we’re friends. We talk like we’ve been talking for forever." So obviously, good feedback at this point.
Grimsley said he has his spring break in two weeks. He plans on visiting Virginia Tech first, likely for that first, March 22 practice, before he visits Maryland. Assistant Chris Beatty is the recruiter from the Terps. Grimsley said he also might visit Syracuse during the final weekend of his spring break. So far, he's only been to Pittsburgh, that visit coming three weeks ago.
I like where VT is in this one. It'll be interesting to see how Scott gets adjusted to the peninsula, but this one is a good place to start. It helps to get Grimsley on a visit soon, as well.
