Michael Cole announced tonight that Virginia Tech is where he will spend his college career. The decision ultimately came down to Tech and Penn State with the Hokies emerging as the pick one week ago.
"I let the Virginia Tech coaches know about a week ago," said Cole, a 6-2, 200-pound linebacker/safety prospect out of Cave Spring High School (Roanoke, VA). "I called Coach Stinespring and he was very excited. I did ask him to keep it confidential since I was announcing this week, so I'll give him a call this week to talk again. Coach Beamer was great. They were just very excited and I think they have a lot of plans for me."
