Clary also considered scholarship offers from Boston College, Cincinnati, Duke, Georgia Tech and Washington State before choosing the Hoos. The 247Sports 3-star recruit made his decision while in Charlottesville on a visit this weekend.
Of Virginia’s four class of 2019 commitments, three hail from the state of Florida – Clary and a pair of Dunbar (Fort Myers, FL) stars in running back/H-Back Seneca Milledge and defensive back Major Williams. Wide receiver Dorien Goddard, a native of Tennessee, has also pledged to head coach Bronco Mendenhall.
