Ayden Greene announced his commitment to Virginia Tech football recently via Twitter. This comes almost two weeks after he de-committed from Cincinnati after coach Luke Fickell was hired by Wisconsin.

The senior took an official visit to Virginia Tech the weekend prior to his commitment and will be signing on Dec. 21 in Powell High School Auditorium at 1:00 p.m.

Greene is the No. 62 wide receiver in the country and the No. 14 player in the state, according to the 247Sports Composite. Greene had offers from Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi State.

"I think he fits in very quickly," Powell coach Matt Lowe said of Greene's college fit. "He's a very intelligent kid, he works extremely hard, he understands concepts, understands spacing, understands how to create things for himself."

In the final high school game of Greene's career, he had six catches for 108 yards and one touchdown. In 14 games this season, he accumulated 66 catches, 1,127 receiving yards and 19 touchdowns. As a defensive back, he had 39 tackles and 3 interceptions.
