Hokies land 4-Star Ryan Jones
Virginia Tech secured the commitment of Ryan Jones, 4-star Center from Gainesville, Florida. Jones is the second commitment for the Hokies 2024 class, joining another Florida native in Tyler Johnson.
Standing 6-8 and weighing in at 225lbs, Jones will bring a unique combination of size, power, and skill to Blacksburg. Like most Mike Young recruits, Jones is a phenomenal shooter from the outside.
Rated as a .9733 on 24/7 sports composite rankings, Ryan Jones is the 4th highest rated recruit in Virginia Tech history, slightly ahead of current Hokie Rodney Rice. Jones is the 69th player in the country and the 12th ranked Center.
Jones picked the Hokies over the hometown Florida Gators. His final 8 also included LSU, Xavier, Miami, Missouri, Oklahoma State, and Louisville.
Hokie Hoops Lead
Virginia Tech class of 2019, I left Blacksburg with a love for the Hokies basketball programs. Jumping on board Sons of Saturday to lead the charge covering both VT hoops programs has been a ton of fun, with more on the horizon!
