You lay out their future for them

When you tell a guy it isn't in the cards for him, and that playing time will be hard to come by going forward, if they want to play they'll move on. It helps when the coaching staff works to find them a good landing place. I don't doubt there are a few guys who don't want to leave VT and will stick around the bottom of the roster being worthwhile practice bodies and emergency depth. That's fine, in sufficiently small numbers, and we will probably never hear a word about it.

Getting tight, 22 seniors, 22 incoming recruits, 23 transfers out
V333T 01/07/26 05:12 PM ET
Higher graded talent is leaving VT; begin replaced with lower talent **
SuperFeHokie 01/07/26 06:00 PM ET
That would be counter to all clear evidence **

See On3 rankings for a completely different take
HokieFlyFisher 01/08/26 06:48 AM ET
And 247 rates VT portal class at #36 right now. All just educated guesses.
marcbvtgm 01/08/26 09:35 AM ET
247 only looks at incoming from what I can tell
VictoryTurkey 01/08/26 11:07 AM ET
Correct. But On3 only tells part of picture too.

Sad attempt at being a troll **
HokiesACC2004 01/08/26 05:21 AM ET
Huh? Good grief.**

Wow

You serious Clark?**

I call bs on this “data”
Planner_Hokie 01/07/26 09:58 PM ET
Agree
crazylane 01/07/26 06:19 PM ET
There will be more to leave and more than 20 or so incoming**
marcbvtgm 01/07/26 05:16 PM ET
How do we nudge players to leave? It must happen, no? Someone explain**

Its a push. VT added 1 transfer out today when Jaquez White committed
V333T 01/07/26 05:43 PM ET
Exactly. Thus there will be more to leave & more than 20 or so incoming.**
marcbvtgm 01/08/26 09:31 AM ET
My only point is the transfers out (23) are not snowballing.
V333T 01/08/26 10:35 AM ET
It's early yet. The number in/out will be higher than you keep saying IMO**
marcbvtgm 01/08/26 03:27 PM ET
Pick a number. 30, 40, 50? You said more than 20 when there’s already 23.
