Virginia Tech football: DL Kamdon Gillespie commits to Hokies

After some disappointing news on Thursday, when three-star wide receiver Carnell Warren announced he was decommitting from Virginia Tech, the Hokies landed good news on Friday and Saturday.

First, on Friday, 2026 edge rusher Kamren Johnson (Virginia Beach) announced he planned to be a Hokie. Three-star defensive lineman Kamdon Gillespie joined Johnson in Tech’s 2026 class on Saturday.
