Greenberg Was Already Familiar With Dowdell
Zabian Dowdell and Seth Greenberg go way back. OK, only about a year or so but they’re from the same state. Greenberg recruited Dowdell during his tenure at South Florida.
On Wednesday, Dowdell will sign with Virginia Tech. “He had been recruiting me ever since he was at South Florida,” Dowdell said. “When he got the job at Virginia Tech, he continued to recruit me.”
Dowdell had offers from South Florida, East Carolina and Florida Atlantic.
Dowdell averaged 22 points a game last year. “I’ll basically have a good chance at being the starting point guard. I’m looking forward to leading the team. I’ll be able to come in and be the leader.”
