Predicting 3 major Virginia Tech transfer commits coming for James Franklin this week
Miami v Virginia Tech | Ryan Hunt/GettyImagesIt's hard to believe that we are into January, but we are, and now it's time for James Franklin to begin the process of building his 2026 Virginia Tech roster with some Transfer Portal additions. There will be just one portal this year, opening on Jan. 2 and running through Jan. 16.
Over the last couple of weeks, several Virginia Tech players have announced their intentions to enter the transfer portal, while others are returning to play for Franklin and his staff in 2026. The biggest retention so far is with the running backs room, where Jeffrey Overton, Jr., and Marcellous Hawkins are both coming back.
