Recruiting News | |||||
This Week In Recruiting First Up Earlier last week, Kempsville (Virginia Beach, VA) star linebacker Travis Hughes scheduled an official visit to the University of Virginia for the weekend of Oct. 30. On Saturday, he decided to make an unofficial stop by UVa for the Florida State game. The 6-1, 215-pound senior took time to discuss the visit and the possible repercussions with respect to Virginia, and I'll have the full report out on the EDGE. Other visitors included commitments Rob Burns, David Dean, Kevin Green, Anthony Harris, and Brandon Phelps, as well as standout wide receiver target Daniel Adams. In addition to the report on Hughes, I'll have updates on Dean, Harris and Phelps posted soon. I hope to have more with all of the confirmed visitors throughout this week.
This Week 2011 class basketball recruits Darion Atkins and Paul Jesperson took their official visits to Virginia this past weekend. For Jesperson, a 6-7, 185-pound wing forward out of Merrill (WI), getting to know his classmate and future teammates was the highlight of the weekend. "Me and Darion were pretty much together in everything we did," Jesperson said. "The big thing to me is how easy it was to get along with the guys. Both Darion and I liked all the guys. No one had a huge ego. They are all hard workers wanting to be part of something bigger than themselves. How they treat me and Darion is the biggest thing that stood out to me." Stay tuned for a full report with reaction from Atkins and Jesperson later this week. ... On the football front, 6-7, 290-pound offensive tackle Jay Whitmire will provide the latest on his recruitment as well as his senior season. Whitmire, a star for T.C. Williams (Alexandria, VA), hopes to be cleared to play this Saturday against Annandale. He has missed all of his team's regular season games thus far, so he is hoping to see his first action of the season.

SabreMail History | |||||
Issue No. 321 - Dec. 10, 2007 FUMA's Pasztor Commits Fork Union Military Academy offensive lineman Austin Pasztor made an official visit to UVa this past weekend. The 6-6, 310-pound prospect had an excellent official visit experience and, earlier today, gave a verbal commitment to head coach Al Groh, according to The Daily Progress and other reports. Pasztor becomes Virginia's 15th verbal commitment for the 2008 recruiting class. He is the fourth prospect projected to play on the offensive line. A native of Langton, Ontario, Canada, Pasztor was discovered by Fork Union postgraduate head coach John Shuman in August, when Fork Union scrimmaged against the Canadian National team. Pasztor decided to come to Fork Union and, even though he is classified as a true senior, played for Coach Shuman's postgraduate squad this season. He played well, starting every game at left tackle.
