The basketball transfer portal opens officially on Monday and there are already a handful of Virginia Tech players are are going to be in it. Last week, wings Jaydon Young, Rodney Brown, Jr., Patrick Wessler, and Brandon Rechsteiner. Young has already had a handful of schools reach out to the sophomore who raised his stock in the second half of the season with some strong offensive performances.
Young reportedly has heard from Davidson, Missouri, Loyola Chicago, East Carolina, Arizona, and more, according to The Portal Report. It's not surprising that he's heard from that many schools and he'll be missed next season in Blacksburg. Sadly, these won't be the last players entering the portal for Virginia Tech.
