In his four years - as a special-teams contributor during his true freshman season, and missing most of his junior year with injury - Waller made 108 total tackles, and made seven total interceptions (four this year, one of which he returned for a touchdown).
The only NFL-bound Hokie to officially announce that he will play in the bowl game to date is offensive lineman Brock Hoffman.
Initially a three-star out of Gaithersburg (Md.) Avalon School, Waller has proven to be a strong representative for the region in attending - and finding success - at Virginia Tech, especially in very trying circumstances over the past couple years.
