Guys, I spoke earlier with Highland Springs (Va.) three-star offensive tackle Mekhi Becton. He visited VT unofficially on Thursday and Friday with his coach, who took part in the Hokies' coaching clinic.
Becton has 14 offers, but VT is not one of them. He does have offers from schools like UVA, West Virginia, Louisville, Maryland, Missouri, Pitt and others.
Before last week, Becton said he'd visited VT a few times, including a visit with his team last spring and he participated in camp last year. With the visit last week, Becton said he did tour campus a bit, looked around the facility and spent quite a bit of time talking with coach Justin Fuente and assistant coach Vance Vice. He said he also liked seeing how things are being renovated.
As far as where he stands with an offer, Becton said he isn't sure. He told me that Vice and Fuente said they like his film and plan to visit him during the open period, which means he'll be one of the next up for discussion for an offer. Becton also told me, "They’ve always been a dream school of mine." So keep that in mind.
To this point, because the Hokies haven't offered, it sounds like UVA is in the lead. Becton told me that staff is who he has the best relationship with. He said they "show him the most love" and call and check on his family just about every day.
No more visits planned as of now, but he wants to see Tennessee, Florida State, Notre Dame and Syracuse next. We'll also get a look at Becton this weekend. He plans on participating in the Nike camp Saturday and the Rivals Camp Sunday, both of which are in Charlotte.
