Don't count out Hokies for UNC commit Marquise Williams

Posted Nov 1, 2010
The rumor going around the SEC Roundtable today at Ragazzi’s concerned the possibility that Virginia Tech could be back in the picture with Charlotte, N.C.-bred quarterback Marquise Williams, who earlier had committed to North Carolina. Mike Farrell covered the topic today in his “whispers” column on rivals.com and speculated that the Hokies have taken a slight lead over North Carolina and Michigan for Williams, a 6-foot-3, 218-pounder from Mallard Creek High School.
