We are seven days away from the Transfer Portal officially opening for college football. So far, it has been rather quiet in terms of players from Virginia Tech. Backup quarterback Garret Rangel, who came over last year from Oklahoma State, is reportedly entering the portal.
Kyron Drones started the 2025 season and used up all of his eligibility, and with Rangel leaving, that is going to leave a thin quarterback room for 2026. It got even thinner on Friday afternoon when Pete Thamel of ESPN reported that fan-favorite Pop Watson is going to enter the portal when it officially opens on Jan.
