The Hokies picked up their second northeastern offensive lineman of the 2014 class when Tyrell Smith chose the Hokies on Wednesday. He continued the trend of heading north to recruit offensive linemen, and that trend will continue to grow as Tech adds more offensive linemen to this class.
Smith is an undersized player (6-3, 256), but he did a very good job at Tech's camp in June. He played very well against 2015 defensive tackle Shy Tuttle and 2015 defensive end Josh Sweat. Those two players will be upper-level 4-star recruits in 2015, and possible top 100 prospects on the national level.
