Recruiting updates in Virginia volume 6

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Vic Castillo will be posting the updated rankings for the state of Virginia starting with the Class of 2026 this week. Being here for a few months has allowed me to get more acquainted with football in Virginia and I wanted to provide a few more recruiting updates below. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Class of 2024</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["293566"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"There are a number of players and schools I cannot wait to watch this Fall and Jones with the Fairfax Lions now ranks up at the top. Just this past weekend Jones was visiting the Florida Gators who are heavily projected to land his services, but as I said before do not count out Georgia and Kirby Smart just yet.  Again Florida according to most sites is heavily projected to land one of the top recruits in all of the state, but something tells me Kirby Smart wants to rebuild his championship defense and he will go all out to nab Jones. Moving past that it is quite impressive to see how Fairfax has come from being bottom feeders in the Patriot conference just a few years ago. Between their state semifinal appearance to having linebackers (Tony Rojas being the other) in back to back years going to major institutions is quite the turnaround.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["157081"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Have yet to really discuss this dude and his absurd talent but we will now. The Green Run Wide Receiver is a game changer and has offers from schools across the country. The senior to be has a top five consisting off  Ohio State, Alabama, Virginia Tech, South Carolina and Pittsburgh and is expected to make his choice July 13. Depending on who you talk but from what I hear and understand is that South Carolina, Pittsburgh and late arrival Ohio State have all been tabbed as his favorite. July 13 Adams will make one fan base very happy, come next fall expect him to be on the field contributing.rnrnhttps://www.hudl.com/video/3/8052006/631e1c47a68127088826f570","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":2,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-647f326491a74"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Class of 2025</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["372540"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"We have talked about Moss extensively prior, but I wanted to share that he just picked up his 26th offer from East Carolina over the weekend! You have got to be kidding me, this kid may end up not only as a top recruit out of Virginia but the entire country. All he did in his sophomore campaign was have 16 pass break ups along with 5 interceptions, he will have his own island come this Fall.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='1232256' first='Caleb' last='West']","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"6'7u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"2409","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"Flint Hill","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Yes I wrote about him on Sunday but I am doing it again because the kid deserves more recognition. Watch his tape below on what he did with Falls Church last fall and tell me he doesn't have huge upside, news flash you cant! Throwing for 30 touchdowns in 2022, West is typically the biggest guy on the field standing at 6'7. You may think he doesnt have wheels but that is far from the case, watching him this past weekend I know the kid can move in the pocket. He also has run a 4.6 40 and has reclassified to 2025, no reason not to believe him and Flint Hill cant make big things happen this fall.rnrnhttp://www.hudl.com/video/3/15528501/634a392a06622b0464239307","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":2,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-647f326491bce"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Class of 2026</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As I said earlier expect this class rankings for 2026 to drop any day, I wanted to update you on a couple of studs below:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["284206"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Expect to see Whitver carving up defenses all over the state this Fall. We talked about him previously but as a freshman all he did was account for 7 touchdowns and nearly 700 yards receiving, pretty darn impressive if you ask me (or anyone for that matter). This young man is catching our attention and has been working on his craft all off-season, cant wait to see him ball out this fall!rnrnu0026nbsp;rnrnhttps://twitter.com/BenjaminWhitver/status/1616463662784421889?s=20","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["402760"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Vic and I both agree with what many are already saying about this kid, he is the next big thing! You will see more on the rankings as Gray already has 10 plus offers. What I really enjoyed the most when watching his tape was his play at defensive tackle.  I get why people are hyped about his play at offensive tackle, but man what I watch him attack on defense he reminds me of a young Fletcher Cox. I am dead serious, prime Fletcher was among the best in the NFL at getting off the football and into quarterbacks eardrums, I see a lot of that with Gray. Regardless the kid has a bright future on either side of the ball, I just hope more major institutions give him consideration at defensive tackle.rnrnhttp://www.hudl.com/v/2K0Tdz","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":2,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-647f326491c99"} /-->
