Lafayette coach Andy Linn believes Grimsley is taylor made for Tech's uptempo offense.

(Grimsley) had 38 receptions for a Bay Rivers District-leading 1,065 yards and 13 touchdowns at wide receiver. He was the district's top punt returner with a 24.6-yard average and three touchdowns, in addition to intercepting seven passes at defensive back. "The new offense (of recently hired head coach Justin Fuente) chucks it all over the yard," Linn said of Virginia Tech. "Hezekiah will fit in perfect.

Grimsley recounted a March visit to Blacksburg with The Key Play at The Opening Regional Washington DC.

"We sat down in (Justin Fuente's) office and talked a little bit about what would happen if I came to Virginia Tech and what I would get out of that," Grimsley told The Key Play. "I like how (Fuente) throws the ball, and wants something for me. I feel like I have a future there, he said I'd play early and I think I will."
