Virginia Football Lands Commitment From In-State OL Cole Surber
Tony Elliott and the Cavaliers have their first commitment for the class of 2023.
Three-star offensive lineman Cole Surber announced his commitment to the Virginia football program in a social media post on Friday night.
A 6'6", 280-pound offensive lineman from Patriot High School in Nokesville, Virginia, Surber is rated the No. 50 inside offensive lineman in the country by 247Sports and is the No. 22-ranked player in the class of 2023 in the state of Virginia.
Surber held offers from over a dozen programs, including Tennessee, South Carolina, West Virginia, Pittsburgh, Maryland, Kentucky, Duke, and Liberty. He visited UVA twice this month and was in attendance at Virginia's spring game last weekend.
Ultimately, Surber chose to stay at home in the Commonwealth of Virginia, becoming the first commitment to the UVA football program in the class of 2023.
