Virginia Tech has scored its 13th verbal commitment of the 2014 recruiting class. Paramus Catholic (Paramus, N.J.) offensive lineman Billy Ray Mitchell jumped on board early this evening, accepting a scholarship offer from Tech over a handful of other offers, including Georgia Tech, N.C. State, Southern Mississippi, and Syracuse. Ole Miss and others expressed serious interest.
Mitchell has informed Tech primary recruiter Jeff Grimes of his intentions. He'll speak with head coach Frank Beamer tomorrow.
