Of Tech's 20 league games, the Hokies are set for home-and-home dates with Clemson, Miami, and Virginia. Additionally, VT will welcome Louisville, North Carolina, NC State, Pitt, SMU, Syracuse and Wake Forest to Blacksburg, while the Hokies will travel to Boston College, Cal, Duke, Florida State, Georgia Tech, Notre Dame and Stanford.
Tech tips off its previously announced 11-game nonconference slate on Monday, Nov. 4 vs. Delaware State. Tickets to nonconference games are on sale now.
The Hokies' conference opener vs. Pitt marks the fifth straight season they will open ACC play at home. The 2025 ACC Men's Basketball Tournament will run March 11-15 at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, N.C.
Mike Young enters his sixth season at the helm of the Hokies, who feature five returners and 10 newcomers. Headlining the returners is Mylyjael Poteat, who has had a solid summer in the gym. Also back are guards Brandon Rechsteiner and Jaydon Young, in addition to 7-foot center Patrick Wessler.
Hysier Miller, a highly-touted point guard from Philadelphia, is one of six transfers on the roster. Tobi Lawal, a VCU transfer, will quickly garner the attention of many with his athleticism and versatility. Also transferring in are Ben Burnham (College of Charleston), Rodney Brown Jr. (Cal), Jaden Schutt (Duke) and Connor Serven (Eastern Michigan).
First years Ben Hammond, Tyler Johnson and Ryan Jones Jr. headline the incoming freshman class. Hammond is a quick, shifty point guard that can get downhill in a hurry, while Johnson may be one of the biggest surprises of the summer. The Orlando, Fla., native is another versatile guard who could emerge as one of Tech's go-to defenders. Jones Jr. has a smooth shooting stroke out to the 3-point line, in addition to having the body to bang down in the post.
