Back to the Virginia Tech Hokies Newsfeed

A pair of former Virginia Tech football players land in new destinations

The advent of the NCAA transfer portal has completely changed college football. Some of it is for the good, some, not so much. This isn’t an issue that is only affecting the Virginia Tech Hokies but all of college sports.

Now, for every player like Khalil Herbert, there are stories like Doug Nester, who transferred from Virginia Tech. So you win some, you lose.

Every school has seen movement this offseason. Recently, a pair of former Hokies who entered the portal earlier this offseason have now found homes.

Defensive back Tyree Rodgers, a three-star commit back in 2016, announced he was committing to Norfolk State over the weekend.
