All the LOIs are signed.  Several Hampton Roads players are headed to colleges across the nation. 

I would call this an average year for Hampton Roads recruits.  And, that’s still very very good.  We had our big recruits like Tajh Boyd going to Clemson.  Three guys going to West Virignia.  Two Oscar Smith players headed to Virginia.  Only 3 local kids are headed to Blacksburg. 

I used to work in Lansing, Michigan.  It’s thought of as a pretty good place for football talent.  But, we never had anything like this when I worked there.  At most we would have 2 kids sign with D-1 schools.

It’s pretty amazing what this area pumps out each year. 

Next year will be just as good.  I have been talking up Oscar Smith quarterback Phillip Sims to anyone who will listen.  This kid is legit.  And, I’m calling it right now.  I think he will be a top 10 national recruit next year.  I think he’ll be the #1 quarterback recruit in the nation and the #1 overall recruit in Virginia.  This kid has the strongest arm I’ve seen from a high school athlete.  He’s not a mobile quarterback, more out of the pro-style mold.  I hear he wants to go to the SEC and play ball there.  He pretty much has his pick of any school in the nation.  He will be the main story next year around this time.
