Virginia Tech has announced that both 2010 verbal commitments have signed with the Hokies on the first day of the Fall early signing period. Jarell Eddie is a Top 100 recruit in the Class of 2010 by both Rivals.com and Scout.com. He is a 6’7″ wing player that could see time at guard and forward. Jarell is ranked #63 overall by Rivals and #77 by Scout. He’s the #15 small forward by Rivals. Tyrone Garland is a big time scoring guard. Scout has Tyrone as the #26 point guard in this year’s class.
The Hokiesports.com article has some nice insights from Coach Seth Greenberg.

Sweet! Good to know that we have stronger commitments in place for both. Sunday can’t come soon enough.
Eddie is a big time recruit and Garland’s stock seems to be on the rise, he may have been a tad underrated (typical Tech recruit).
