At first I thought this was a Mike Young hire.

Any TKPers heading out to Hardywood in Richmond to hear Pry tonight? I will be heading out there shortly.

How about any of the other upcoming stops?

Two minute soundbite included in the tweet below, perhaps if you're a subscriber you can access the full conversation.

Strike one more player from the #Hokies roster: WR Christian Moss won't be back. Virginia Tech's sitting at 82 scholarships right now, with three to play with in the transfer portal.Will have more from a sitdown with Brent Pry in a little bit.— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) May 2, 2023

Figured I'd start a post highlighting who's going where as UDFA signees and rookie camp invitees. Here's what I've seen so far:

OL Silas Dzansi - Tampa Bay Buccaneers - UDFA
WR Jadan Blue - Chicago Bears - Camp Invite
TE Connor Blumrick - Kansas City Chiefs - Camp Invite
LB Dax Hollifield - Jacksonville Jaguars - Camp Invite

Not a name I thought would have gone in the portal. Figured he had a good shot of being in the two deep. The #Hokies do have a wave of young corners coming into the program, though. https://t.co/gzfGdh3ggg— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) May 1, 2023

Virginia Tech's Kyree Moyston and Jalen Hoyle are in the transfer portal@VTScoop247 @247SportsPortal— EvanGWatkins247 (@EvanGWatkins247) April 29, 2023

Pretty sure this puts us right at the 85 limit. Expect a couple more to make room for transfers.

Little bit surprised about Moyston... DE is definitely a position of need and where pt should be available. *shrug*

Chiefs just took Conner in 4th Round at pick 119.

Nice landing spot for Conner.

Little earlier than most projections who had him as 6th-7th Rounder.

Think Conner really turned some heads with a very solid Combine performance.
-40 yd Dash: 4.51
-Vertical: 40.5"
-Bench: 20 reps

Hope he balls out in the NFL and repersents VT well.

I thought something was up. I couldn't find them listed with the Spring Game stuff and their site was unreachable last week when I was looking for some new Tech Gear.

Figured there'd be some movement in what was a very full (and remade) WR room. Wright seemed on the cusp last year with sporadic standout practice days, then got hurt. Unofficially, I've got the #Hokies at 86 scholarships now. Obviously more attrition coming. https://t.co/hsBMErun7A— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) April 27, 2023

Here's the one we've been waiting for.

Another VT player has hit the transfer portal, per ⁦@EvanGWatkins247⁩ QB Devin Farrell intends to transfer. Tahj Bullock entered this morning. That's two QBs leaving the program. https://t.co/MvrWQJ6Etk— VTScoop247 (@VTScoop247) April 24, 2023

There's the suspected 2nd QB in portal. Best of luck to Devin in his future endeavors!

Hokies great being honored tonight with induction into Virginia Sports Hall of Fame.
Played for the Hokies from 2001-2003. First team All American in 2003. 8th overall pick in 2004 by the Atlanta Falcons. Currently the Carolina Panthers Assistant defensive backs coach.

Cornerback Elijah Howard is no longer listed on Virginia Tech's online roster.— Chris Coleman (@ChrisColemanTSL) April 20, 2023

If any of you forgot who this was here is his commitment thread

Let's get right to it...

This might be the most underrated and overlooked uniform that VT has ever worn. Give me maroon and orange versions of this, maybe with more traditional block numbers for our inevitable Pry restyle and I'll be happy.

Virginia Tech transfer RB Keshawn King has announced that he will be transferring to Western Michigan. https://t.co/UdvEmaBeKK— Sidelines Transfer Portal (@SSN_Portal) April 16, 2023

Hopefully he finds more playing time.
