Sophomore and got an invite to The Opening

Hand said he plans to cut down his list of schools after his junior season.

"I want to take a lot of visits, get to know the coaches, and after that I'll start cutting down my list," he said.

What I think impresses me the most about this kid is how well spoken he is for being only a sophomore. Based off the interview, he seems like he would have academics high on his list as well as a having positive people around him. I am very impressed with this kid.

Thanks guys, just saw that tweet earlier, and then this thread popped up.

Didn't know who either guy was.

Well that's stupid. I'd hope Hand would make a better choice than that.

I believe Raekwon definitely just tipped his cards though.

Irish Offer Elite 2014 Defender

Christian McCollum 5/15/12

... “Notre Dame is an amazing school and it has a lot of history.

“I know Justin Tuck and (Jimmy) Clausen went there and I know they’re a good academic school. That’s about it so far. I’m just getting into college football.”

To this point, the only college Hand has visited is Virginia Tech. He plans on getting out a bit this summer.

“I’m going to Alabama’s camp and I’m going to Virginia Tech’s camp,” he said. “I’m going to the Rivals 100 All-Star camp and I’m going to The Opening.”

...

But he does have an idea of the factors that will play a major role in his decision.

“Academics because I want to major in petroleum engineering or engineering period and I want to minor in business,” he said. “A good coaching staff, a great environment, great players and campus life and stuff like that.”

Hand is excited about challenging himself in the classroom in college with engineering.

“I enjoy being innovative and getting down to the nitty gritty of things,” he said. “I just found out about petroleum engineering and it kind of interests me.”

...

Hand says he’s being recruited as a linebacker in 3-4 schemes and as a defensive end on 4-3 defenses.

Double major? I double majored, but it wasn't playing big time football by any means.

Likely #1 recruit overall for the class of 2014.

247 has already billed him as the #1 recruit in 2014 on their 2014 Top247 list, and Mike Farrell over at Rivals said he's a lock for #1 in 2014 and that he'd be the #1 recruit in the 2013 class, ahead of even Robert Nkmediche.

It's funny because they said the exact thing about Nkemdiche last year.

Per II Big Justin Tuck Fan. Wants to get to ND this summer but it most likely will be next summer if he makes the trip.

Haven't seen this one before, Hand told JC Shurburtt what to put on his 247 profile

Told him to make Virginia Tech, OSU, North Carolina, Clemson, USC, Alabama & Michigan at warm and the rest at cool

The chances of someone from Hoodbridge leaving Virginia for anywhere but the south seems very, very slim. Maaaaybe Ohio State.

Doesn't seem worth the effort to get too worked up about it one way or the other. What are we, about 20 months from 2014 NSD? Things may change, who knows...

Petroleum engineering is A&M's and LSU's sweetspot, so I guess that's how serious he is about that.

I think Virginia Tech gets him. He's got a great relationship with Bud Foster and even said Foster was his favorite recruiter.
