Virginia Tech football: Braxton Burmeister enters NCAA transfer portal

Seemingly every day since the Virginia Tech Hokies ended the regular season with a win over the Virginia Cavaliers, the Hokies have lost another player.

On Saturday, quarterback Braxton Burmeister became the latest Hokie to enter the NCAA transfer portal. Virginia Tech’s roster for the Pinstripe Bowl against Maryland on Dec. 29 will look completely different than the one vs. UVA last month.

Burmeister is the second Tech quarterback to enter the portal, following Knox Kadum. That leaves Connor Blumrick and Tahj Bullock as VT’s quarterbacks in the Pinstripe Bowl. The Hokies have already lost their top two wide receivers as Tayvion Robinson entered the transfer portal, signing with Kentucky, and Tre Turner opted out of the bowl to prepare for the NFL draft.
