In what has become a theme in recent seasons, the Virginia Tech Hokies men’s basketball team loses a projected starting guard just ahead of the new season. On Wednesday, Virginia Tech announced that transfer guard Hysier Miller was no longer in the program.
Here’s the statement:
Temple transfer point guard Hysier Miller has been permanently released from the Virginia Tech men’s basketball program due to circumstances prior to his enrollment at Virginia Tech. There will be no further comment by the university on this matter.
According to Pat Forde of Sports Illustrated, Miller’s departure is related to a gambling probe at Temple University.
