Three-Star RB Tahj Gary Sets His Decision Date

VT Fans 1
Last night, three-star RB and major Virginia Tech target Tahj Gary announced that he will be making his collegiate decision tomorrow. https://twitter.com/Tahjgary/status/1052728767423090689 The three-star RB was recently on campus for Virginia Tech's game against Notre Dame and also took an official visit to South Carolina at the beginning of September according to 247 Sports. The Hokies do have one RB commit in Keshawn King, but Virginia Tech seemed likely to add a second RB ever since given their current RB situation with Gary being a top target. If the Hokies do get Gary, the Hokies should be done at running back with the Atlanta tailback and King. My most recent prediction was in the Hokies' favor and at this time, I continue to stand by that prediction. For weeks, the Hokies have had the momentum in Gary's recruitment and the fact that he has taken a non-official visit to a top contender in Virginia Tech is another sign of how great his interest is in the Hokies.
