The 2013 recruiting class for Virginia Tech demonstrates a mixed outcome in terms of player development and performance. While the class was originally ranked 27, it experienced a notable improvement in the S2S rerank to 18, indicating an overall positive trajectory for several members of the class. The blue chip percentage of 29 suggests a focus on attracting talented prospects, yet the outcomes reveal both success stories and significant misses.
Among the successful recruits, several players who were originally unranked or lowly ranked achieved high outcomes, such as Wyatt Teller and Chuck Clark, who both became NFL starters. This highlights Virginia Tech's ability to develop talent effectively, particularly from lower-ranked positions. Conversely, the class also featured multiple ranked recruits who underperformed, leading to bust designations. Notably, Jerome Wright and Holland Fisher, both ranked among the top 30, failed to make a significant impact, illustrating the unpredictable nature of recruiting and development.
Overall, the Virginia Tech 2013 recruiting class met expectations with a blend of high-performing recruits and several disappointments. The S2S rerank improved due to the emergence of several players as impactful contributors, particularly those who outperformed their rankings. However, the presence of multiple busts among the highest-ranked recruits underscores the inconsistency in the recruiting process. In conclusion, while the class produced notable hits, the instances of underperformance among ranked players place the overall outcome in a mixed category.
