You Won’t Believe Virginia Tech’s Top 5 Spring Transfers — Ranked!
The Hokies hit the transfer portal hard this spring — and they came out with serious firepower. As Brent Pry continues to mold Virginia Tech into a legitimate ACC contender, these portal additions could be the difference-makers fans have been waiting for. Here’s our ranking of the top 5 spring transfer additions who could make an immediate impact in Blacksburg.
1. WR Malik Benson (Alabama)
Straight from Tuscaloosa, Benson brings SEC speed and polished route-running to VT’s offense. The Hokies desperately needed a downfield threat, and Benson delivers exactly that. Expect him to stretch defenses and open up the passing game in a big way.
2. LB Kaden Turner (Arkansas)
A hard-hitting linebacker with elite instincts, Turner gives the defense a much-needed edge. With his ability to cover ground and stuff the run, he’s got All-ACC potential if he can stay healthy.
3. RB Justin Williams-Thomas (Tennessee)
A former 4-star recruit, Williams-Thomas adds power and explosiveness to the backfield. He runs with purpose and brings SEC-level physicality. He could quickly climb the depth chart.
4. CB Tamarcus Cooley (Maryland)
The secondary gets a huge boost with Cooley, who has the tools to lock down receivers and bring swagger to the defense. He’s physical, quick, and plays with an edge VT fans will love.
5. OL Jakai Clark (Miami)
An experienced center who started multiple seasons for the Hurricanes, Clark brings leadership and grit to the offensive line. His presence should stabilize the trenches and help unlock the run game.
These aren’t just depth pieces — these are potential stars. The Hokies didn’t just plug holes; they reloaded. If these five transfers play to their potential, Virginia Tech could be one of the ACC’s surprise teams in 2025.
