Mount Tabor (Winston-Salem, N.C.) standout Divine Deablo received his first major Division 1 scholarship offer in the fall of 2013, during his sophomore season. Clemson was the first to offer the talented wide receiver, who learned of the news the day the Tigers were hosting the Florida State Seminoles.

Deablo went on to receive numerous scholarship offers, easily surpassing the double-digit mark. Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, NC State, Ohio State, Penn State, South Carolina, Tennessee, and of course Virginia Tech pursued him. In the end, it was Virginia Tech that stood out most to the 6’3”, 205-pound prospect.
