In an unusual occurrence, simultaneously three highly rated commits that Virginia Tech had landed
in the Class of 2019 - have all announced their decommitments simultaneously and will reopen their recruitment
The chatter on their message board is that perhaps head coach Buzz Williams no longer wanted them and thought he could do better and land higher rated kids with those scholarships.
However, I find that a little hard to believe - since all three were ranked inside the Top 200 nationally (one is 4-Star per ESPN), and they had a year before anyone would sign a LOI and be locked in - so he certainly didn't have to cut them loose now. Especially since he has six open scholarships for 2019 and still had three more even with these kids committed.
