Virginia Tech Men's Basketball Recruiting

PROUD PAST, PROMISING FUTURE

With a legacy that dates back to our first game on January 22, 1909, Virginia Tech men’s basketball has built a tradition rooted in hard work, resilience and growth. From 13 NCAA tournament appearances—including a memorable Sweet 16 run in 2019—to capturing the ACC Championship in 2022 and two NIT titles in 1973 and 1995, our history is rich with milestones. But we’re just getting started. As we honor our proud past, we’re building a promising future—one defined by elite development, passionate fan support and a relentless drive to compete at the highest level.

RECENT HIGHLIGHTS

Head coach Mike Young surpassed 400 career wins during the 2024-25 season. He is one of only two active ACC head coaches to have eclipsed the mark. Young, a Radford, Virginia native, already ranks fourth in all-time wins in program history.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker had quite the 2024-25 basketball campaign. First, he suited up for Team Canada in the 2024 Olympics in Paris, France, propelling the squad to the quarterfinals. During the NBA season, NAW and the Timberwolves advanced to the Western Conference Finals for the second year in a row.

Virginia Tech secured its 1,500th program win during the 2021-22 season – becoming the 90th Division I men's basketball program to do so at the time.
