New Virginia Tech basketball offer: Jaden Bediako

Virginia Tech has offered Brampton (Ont.) Ridley College 2019 center Jaden Bediako. Here's a quick look at him.

Kent State, Middle Tennessee, Toledo

Bediako received early interest from bigtime programs (like Oklahoma and USC), but had settled into more of a mid-major prospect until the Hokies came calling. That Virginia Tech needs size in the frontcourt is a boost in pursuing him. So too is their ability and desire to recruit Canadian prospects, like rising sophomore Nickeil Alexander-Walker. The Hokies will need to convince Bediako to take a visit, but when that happens, it could really kick off his recruitment in a serious way.
