Here’s an interesting Roanoke Times article about one time VT verbal commit momo jones. Apparently he wants out of usc (trojans) now that Head Coach Tim Floyd has left. jones verballed to two schools (louisville and VT) and will now have signed with two others. Probably for the best VT won’t have to deal with all this.
Also in the article it talks about Hank Thorns and how it looks like he will end up playing for a school in Texas.
