Running back Keshawn King made his first visit ever to Virginia Tech on Friday. The occasion: the Blacksburg Bash, the Hokies' marquee summer recruiting event. The two-day stay was all it took to seal the deal. The Oakleaf HS (Orange Park, FL) rising senior committed Saturday afternoon.

"When I got there they showed me a lot of love," said King. "The coaches were very generous with how they treated me. The players there were also very nice and kind. Of course Virginia Tech is a very beautiful place, it made me feel like home when I was there. It was just a great fit. And the program they have is all set up for success. It was a great place for me to be."
