Nelson had 13 tackles for loss and 7.5 sacks last season as a high school junior. He picked the Hokies over offers from Indiana, Virginia, Wake Forest, Vanderbilt, Boston College, Michigan State, and others.
Nelson and his parents visited Virginia Tech’s Blacksburg campus in recent weeks, though they could not meet with the Hokie coaching staff. He was recruited by defensive line coaches Darryl Tapp and Bill Teerlinck.
