Last week was disastrous for Virginia Tech basketball coach Mike Young. Not only were the Hokies coming off a disappointing season that ended in a second-round NIT loss at Ohio State, multiple key players entered the NCAA transfer portal.
Leading scorer and third-team All-ACC guard Sean Pedulla, starting center Lynn Kidd, guard MJ Collins, top bench scorer Tyler Nickel, backup big man Mylyjael Poteat and forward John Camden entered the portal. Kidd quickly joined Miami. I wonder how that happened so quickly? Then, Poteat had a change of heart and withdrew his name from the portal.
Pedulla, Collins, Nickel, and Camden remain in the portal, and most are unlikely to return at this point.
