Less than two months ago, Doug Nester was making plans to enroll early at Ohio State. But on Wednesday, he will sign his letter of intent with Virginia Tech, flipping his commitment from the Buckeyes to the Hokies, he tells The Herald Dispatch.
Nester was Ohio State's first commitment in the 2019 class and had been committed to the Buckeyes for nearly 18 months before delaying his early enrollment and taking other visits following Urban Meyer's retirement.
His decision was ultimately about where he felt most comfortable, explaining that Blacksburg is just the right size, and not too far from family.
