The Virginia Tech Hokies saw Justyn Mutts and Keve Aluma declare for the NBA draft last week, but both maintained their eligibility. Also, junior guard Nahiem Alleyne entered the NCAA transfer portal.
So, now it’s time for some good news, right?
According to Jake Weingarten of Stock Risers, Virginia Tech will host top-40 forward Tyrell Ward for an official visit this weekend in Blacksburg.
Ward, a former Xavier commit, backed off his commitment to the Musketeers after they fired head coach Travis Steele last month. Ward, a 6-foot-7 wing from DeMatha Catholic in Hyattsville, Maryland, initially considered the Hokies before committing to Xavier.
