A few football players from Virginia Tech should visit the transfer portal.
It wouldn’t surprise me if one or more Hokies players used the transfer portal when it opens today.
Today is the opening of the spring transfer portal, and some Virginia Tech football players should be adding their names to it. Who knows for sure, but be prepared for some to try their luck.

After the spring practice season concluded, Brad Crawford of 247Sports published his revised Top 25 rankings for the upcoming fall season. Although Virginia Tech remained in the top 25, they dropped in this edition.

With an offense that has had a lot of retention, his mobility in the pocket, willingness to put his head down and run with it, and powerful arm will make him challenging to defend.
Although it was only a spring game, the Hokies’ defense looked strong, but much like their offense, they have some retention issues. They’ve got
