Sam Faniel Commits to Virginia Tech

Virginia Tech just pulled off a major recruiting coup with the commitment of Sam Faniel, a 6’5”, 215-pound tight end from Richmond, set to join the 2027 class. Already boasting a stacked tight end corps with Jordan Karhoff and Braxton Salster, the Hokies are building depth and firepower for the future. Faniel credited head coach James Franklin and elite tight ends coach Ty Howle — widely regarded as one of the best in the country — as key factors in his decision. With returning talent and incoming transfers, Virginia Tech’s tight end room is shaping up as one of the nation’s best. Welcome to the family, Sam.
