Tyrie Jackson Commits to Virginia Tech Hokies

Buzz Williams continues to strengthen the backcourt, as the Hokies make a late addition in PG Tyrie Jackson who just visited over the holiday weekend. He hails from Tifton, GA and was rated as one of the top remaining unsigned players in the state. Jackson is part of the 2016 class, so he will begin training with the Hokies this fall. While his 24/7 page doesn't have a star-rating for him, there's plenty to like about Jackson. The newest Hokie stands at 6-1, 180 pounds and has solid athleticism for the position. Jackson was seen as one of the biggest sleepers left on the market drawing interest from teams like Auburn and Wichita State.
