Well MY has his work cut out for him in 2026-27: VT's 6 person transfer

Class ranks 16th in in ACC 247 rankings. Uva 17th has class off just 3 and Stanford 18th class of 1. If you go by avg player rank, VT's 87.60 is better than Wake, BC, GT, which would put them 15th. VT does have a strong returning 3some in Hansberry, Hammond, and Johnson, not sure how those returning starters compare to the rest of the ACC. VT's highest rated 247 transfer is Curry with an 89, Hiede 88, Atak 87, Elohim 87 Saiga 87. Interestingly - 247 has Gurdak and Dorn as 90s Shutt 88. Maybe not in football, but in MBB MY will either be like Beamer and do more with less - the little engine that could, or be the little engine that can't !

Dorn at 90 is laughable. He averaged a foul per min played.**

Here are some thoughts on the “floor” of this team…

Barring metatarsal. **
HokieDelNorte • 05/24/26 06:25 PM ET
Yep, injuries. The floor may not be where we thought it would be.

This is the correct assessment. Likely better than 2 years ago. But as you

Are you seeing Hansberry still recovering from injury to start the season?**
Femoyer Hokie • 05/24/26 03:28 PM ET
no. CMY will play 2 bigs at the 5 as long as they can offer positive
ancient alien 2018 • 05/23/26 11:57 PM ET
Not starting, but you could see that line up in a 4 out offense, although
NC Hoke • 05/24/26 12:51 AM ET
No most think Hansbury will play 90% of minutes at the 4 spot. Heide Saiga
vtox1 • 05/23/26 10:11 PM ET
I would bet (and very much hope) that Hansberry does not start or.....
vtbball80 • 05/23/26 09:20 PM ET
Hard to believe our starting center averages 5 ppg and 4 rbg
YBYSAIAHokie • 05/23/26 09:43 PM ET
In about 19 minutes a game.
NC Hoke • 05/24/26 12:24 AM ET
That's about what VT's 5 averaged last season.**
ancient alien 2018 • 05/23/26 11:59 PM ET
Those are Gurdak's stats. Between him, Hansberry and Dorn I'd guess....
vtbball80 • 05/24/26 06:51 PM ET
Every year I believe VT will create newer, smarter fans.. I’m always wrong

Ever meet “Subway Irish” or the average PSU fan

Hey, we dimwits know where we're not wanted.
KCHokie2 • 05/23/26 08:47 PM ET
I hope you are correct. This year the parts rated higher than the whole.

Did 247 watch us play last year? I love Gurdak and respect Dorn and Schutt
VT One • 05/22/26 06:58 PM ET
247 is basically a CBS afterthought. Their rankings for the transfer portal

This roster, using last year’s ppg from their various teams, shows

Dorn as 90?? LOL!! Rivals/ON3 has VT's transfer class ranked 33 out of 194
