Spring practices are underway for the Virginia Tech football team. There is a lot of anticipation for the 2026 season, the first one under James Franklin. As spring practices begin ramping up, so is recruiting around college football.
Franklin and Virginia Tech had several recruits locking in visits in the coming month, with the biggest rush of recruits flocking to Blacksburg coming in June, which is a vital month. One player who was scheduled to visit earlier this year was defensive lineman Xzaiver Whittington from Maryland. However, his visit was postponed due to a snowstorm earlier this year.
