The Gold Standard For Virginia Tech Athletics
Virginia Tech head coach James Franklin wasn’t busy flipping only former Penn State commitments. On the first day of the early signing period, Franklin worked his magic again, flipping 3-star athlete Tyrell Grant from Syracuse. The 6-foot-1, 190-pound Grant plays at Nansemond River High School in Suffolk, Virginia. Grant was in Blacksburg recently on an […]
The Virginia Tech Hokies opened the early signing period on Wednesday morning, awaiting the decisions of a few targets.

It seems like we’ve said a […]

However, Oklahoma swooped […]
“The best in VA, stay in VA.” That’s apparently the new motto for Virginia recruits who spurn other schools and remain in the Commonwealth to play college football for the Virginia Tech Hokies. On Monday, 4-star offensive tackle Thomas Wilder from Virginia Beach announced he was signing with the Hokies on Wednesday. Now, 4-star wide […]
The Virginia Tech Hokies are blazing hot on the recruiting trail, and with one day before the early signing period begins, they remain busy.

Virginia Tech head coach James Franklin did it four times on Monday. First, Franklin brought two of his former Penn State commitments to Blacksburg, then landed 4-star offensive tackle Thomas Wilder before flipping an SEC commit to finish off Monday evening.

At one time, Thomas Wilder was the centerpiece of Virginia Tech’s 2026 recruiting class. Wilder kicked off the July 4 holiday weekend with a bang, committing to the Hokies on July 3.

When James Franklin was hired as Virginia Tech’s head coach two weeks ago, he immediately scheduled two big recruiting weekends.

Huhn, a 6-foot-4.5, 215-pound passer from […]

On Sunday, Franklin added another offensive […]
Mercifully, it’s over. The season from hell, you know, the 2025 college football season, is over for the Virginia Tech Hokies after Saturday’s 27-7 loss to the Virginia Cavaliers. It’s Virginia’s first win over the Hokies since 2019 and only its third victory over Virginia Tech this century. With the win, the Cavaliers are headed […]
The Wahoos have a quarterback and a decent enough team to dominate the Hokies and head to the ACC championship game. There is probably only one good thing to come out of this mess and it’s that the season is mercifully over for the hapless Hokies. The defense did the best that it could, given […]
The Virginia Tech Hokies (3-8, 2-5) face the Virginia Cavaliers (9-2, 6-1) in the regular-season finale at Scott Stadium in Charlottesville.

On Wednesday, the first domino fell when […]
This was a tough road loss. No loss is easy, but the Lady Hokies just couldn’t deal with JMU’s rebounding. Tech couldn’t contend with a smothering defense, combined with continued intermittent Hokie offensive woes. This One Stings. I was not able to watch the game, I ended up having to watch the play-by-play on the […]
