In November, Oday Aboushi was all but headed to Boston College.
The tides turned and Virginia reaped the ultimate reward Thursday when the four-star offensive lineman verbally committed to play for coach Al Groh.
Aboushi, who is from Xaverian High in Brooklyn, N.Y., made the announcement after talking to a pair of Virginia’s assistant coaches, Bob Diaco and Dave Borbely.
It had been rumored that Aboushi would take an official visit to Rutgers in the coming weeks, but decided to end his recruitment and join the Cavaliers’ ever-growing class for 2009.
“Virginia has everything with football, academics, their coaching staff,” Aboushi said, “Everything was what I wanted.”
The late-night announcement gave Virginia its third four-star commitment. Orange County quarterback Quintin Hunter and Chancellor running back Dominque Wallace verbally committed last year.
