Dylan Stewart is reportedly set to commit to the Virginia Tech Hokies, bypassing offers from several top-tier programs, including South Carolina, Alabama, and Georgia.
Stewart’s decision to join the Hokies highlights Virginia Tech’s growing appeal under its current coaching staff. Sources suggest that Stewart was drawn to the program’s vision, defensive schemes, and the chance to be a cornerstone player in revitalizing Virginia Tech’s defense.
“Virginia Tech gave me a family feel,” Stewart reportedly said. “The coaching staff showed me how I can make an immediate impact and leave my mark on a program with a strong tradition.”
At 6’5” and 230 pounds, Stewart is an elite linebacker known for his explosiveness, versatility, and high football IQ. His ability to rush the passer, stop the run, and drop into coverage makes him a perfect fit for Virginia Tech’s dynamic defensive plans. His addition could elevate the Hokies’ defense to one of the best in the ACC.
Stewart’s decision is a significant loss for South Carolina, which had been considered a favorite to land the Columbia native. His commitment to Virginia Tech also underscores the Hokies’ ability to compete for top-tier talent against powerhouse programs.
