I’d say Becht to PSU is a near certainty. If it doesn’t happen, it will…

Be a humiliation for MC out of the gate so expect Grunkemeyer to be available. I’m also expecting Brand to hit the portal so 2 QBs is a certainty. The wild card is Huhn: is he ready to play at the next level? Probably not. Also, if he’s not, will he sit behind Grunk for 3 years? Unlikely in this era. Ideally, Franklin finds someone with 2 years left to play to win QB1 who hands it over to Huhn in year 3. Regardless, continuity into year 2 is critical as I see that, given the resources l and expectations, as the year VT reenters the national spy.

Ethan Grunkemeyer (“Grunk”) and his impending decision. What’s the ’tell?'
V333T • 12/28/25 06:55 AM ET
Saw this on X from The Sporting News FWIW**

So logical, but logic doesn't always work.**
V333T • 12/29/25 11:52 AM ET
Encouraging that he is taking a neutral position**
VT ChemE 1986 • 12/28/25 12:47 PM ET
Indeed, he’s a hero at PSU today. Would’ve been easy to say he’s in for ‘26**

One year at a time, Grunk was ready, Huhn might be ready
V333T • 12/28/25 10:10 AM ET
Huhn doesn’t look remotely ready to play to me**
marcbvtgm • 12/28/25 12:59 PM ET
I still believe VT is building for year 2 so continuity at QB will be key
Hokiefied • 12/28/25 10:27 AM ET
Agree on a true freshman QB
HokieFlyFisher • 12/28/25 12:31 PM ET
I get wanting to do that but there’s just too many holes to fill in 1….
Hokiefied • 12/28/25 02:26 PM ET
If VT is 7-5 and at least competitive in losses that would be great
VPI_1998 • 12/28/25 01:40 PM ET
Agree, need 2 QBs but money is a consideration
V333T • 12/28/25 10:51 AM ET
Brand doesn’t fit anymore. I’d say 90% chance he’s gone.
Hokiefied • 12/28/25 03:00 PM ET
Agreed

Whose got the $$$$$?**
UTPr0sim • 12/28/25 08:38 AM ET
I say Franklin..VT $$
JRHokie • 12/28/25 07:06 AM ET
And he ‘might' need 2 experienced QBs at that,
V333T • 12/28/25 07:15 AM ET
Yep, no way there are not two QBs coming here
Happy Dog • 12/28/25 08:05 AM ET
Yeah, that’s why I cautioned with ‘said facetiously’ regarding the QB room
V333T • 12/28/25 08:28 AM ET
How do you get 2? Both would want to be QB1. But then, both could be cocky
Hokie`79 • 12/28/25 08:20 AM ET
Pravia or Colandrea would fit the cocky definition :)
V333T • 12/28/25 08:33 AM ET
No one here would waste $ on Pavia and his attitude. You know
Hokie`79 • 12/28/25 08:36 AM ET
You offer enough money to get two
Happy Dog • 12/28/25 08:25 AM ET
I agree that we need 2, just wondering what the quality of #2 will be.
Hokie`79 • 12/28/25 08:28 AM ET
I just want 1
3Manysons • 12/28/25 12:15 PM ET
You absolutely cannot have QB1, a true FR, and nobody else**
