Good Leftovers: Surprise Commit from Deablo Adds to WR depth

Tonight the Hokies picked up a commitment from Divine Deablo, wide receiver out of Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Out of all the remotely possible commitments that might come this weekend, this was much more of a surprise. Credit to Evan Watkins of 247sports.com for predicting him a couple months ago after his first unofficial, but this particular wide receiver was still thought to be a heavy UNC lean by a large part of the recruiting community. The headline on a recent article read that he was a huge fan of the familial vibe of Blacksburg, and apparently it enraptured him enough that he made his commitment tonight.
