Underrated Transfer Point Guard Eyeing Visit to Virginia Tech for Potential Impact
The 2024-25 season for Virginia Tech men’s basketball was one marked by frustration—not just for the passionate fanbase but also for head coach Mike Young. Last week, Young took to social media to reassure Hokies fans, posting a message on the program’s X account, vowing to turn things around in Blacksburg. With a promising off-season ahead, Young is determined to revamp the team, and he’s already making moves to make that happen.
Virginia Tech’s offseason plans are shaping up to be active, with Young expected to have a larger NIL budget to work with. Additionally, after some key players graduated and five others entered the transfer portal, the Hokies have multiple scholarships available to fill their roster. Young is eager to make quick improvements by blending incoming freshmen with experienced transfer portal additions.
Young and his coaching staff have been scouring the transfer portal, searching for players who can come in and make an immediate impact for the Hokies in the 2025 season. Recently, according to Tim Thomas of The Tech Lunch Pail, Virginia Tech hosted Jacari White, a transfer from North Dakota State. White is considered a potential game-changer for the Hokies’ roster, adding strength to their backcourt. But the excitement doesn’t stop there.
Now, it seems that Virginia Tech is preparing to host another key transfer—this time from the ACC. An underrated point guard is reportedly looking to set up a visit to Blacksburg soon, and if he does make the trip, he could be a major addition to the Hokies’ roster. With his skill set and experience, this transfer could help address some of the team’s needs and provide a significant boost to Virginia Tech’s chances in the upcoming season.
As the offseason heats up, all eyes are on Coach Young and the Hokies to see how they will rebuild and rebound after a challenging season. With fresh talent coming in and strategic moves in the works, Virginia Tech basketball could be primed for a much-needed turnaround. Fans are hopeful that these transfer portal additions, including the rumored ACC point guard, will help set the stage for a more successful 2025 season.
