Landstown (Virginia Beach, VA) star Jeremy Gilchrist received a scholarship offer from Virginia Tech last week. The Hokies decided to offer the 5-11, 185 pound wide receiver after reviewing senior film.
"I think at first Virginia Tech had questions about his speed, but once they saw him in the playoffs running away from guys with speed, they had their questions answered," Landstown Head Coach Chris Beatty said. "They offered last Friday, and Jeremy was excited to get the offer. He's a player who plays with a lot of heart. People found out how great he really was when we played teams outside of our district and he continued to play great."
