Fuga becomes the 18th commit for the Hokies in their 2019 class and seventh from the Commonwealth. In addition, Fuga is the fourth defensive tackle commit joining three-star high school DTs Mario Kendricks and Norell Pollard along with three-star JUCO DT Dashawn Crawford.
Fuga told us that Virginia Tech is his "dream school" which was a big reason why he chose the Hokies. Fuga also told us that his official visit to Blacksburg this weekend also made a big impact on his decision to commit to the Hokies.

With his commitment today, Fuga confirmed to us that he will be signing on Wednesday, ending his recruitment by officially joining the Hokies.
