According to Trieu, Bell’s relationship with Virginia Tech offensive line coach Matt Moore “helped pave the way for this commitment.” Bell has known Moore since high school.
Bell, who is from Macomb, Michigan, was a member of Michigan State’s 2025 recruiting class as a 3-star prospect. He ranked as the No. 90 offensive tackle and No. 24 player in the state of Michigan.
Bell did not see a game last season as a true freshman and will have four years of eligibility remaining.
