In an era when programs now look for the shiniest new player with double figure averages in the transfer portal, Brandon Jennings, at 6-foot-4, 175 pounds, could provide plenty of value for the Virginia Cavaliers after his freshman year at VCU. Evidently, he’s a target for new head coach Ryan Odom after visiting Charlottesville this past weekend.
Jennings was a three-star recruit coming out of high school in Richmond, where he was named All-Metro Player of the Year and First Team All-State after starring for the St. Christopher’s school. He chose VCU over offers from Colorado State, Louisville, Penn, Richmond, and others, according to 247 Sports.
