One of the top wide receiver recruits in the 2009 class was in Blacksburg on Saturday, not to participate in the camp but to get a feel for Virginia Tech, which is one of the programs he is still considering. Ashbrook (Gastonia, N.C.) star Jheranie Boyd came away with a positive feeling from Saturday's visit, in particular about Virginia Tech's coaches and campus.
"It is away from everything, so I wouldn't get distracted," Boyd said, referring to Virginia Tech's campus. The one day experience was his first ever visit to Virginia Tech. "I could go there and be real focused on my grades and everything. I also liked how the buildings on campus were all built with stone and brick."
