Momentum continues to build across Virginia Tech Athletics.

Over the past several months, Hokie Nation has seen a series of significant developments that underscore the university's commitment to competing and succeeding at the highest level of college athletics. From the launch of Hokie Ventures and continued progress through the Invest to Win initiative to a historic $75 million commitment that will help shape the future of Virginia Tech Athletics, the department continues to position itself for long-term success in an evolving landscape.

That momentum extends well beyond strategic initiatives. Virginia Tech student-athletes and programs continue to excel in competition, the fan experience continues to grow, and preparations are underway for an exciting new football season under head coach James Franklin. Together, those efforts reflect a department focused on creating opportunities, enhancing the student-athlete experience and building a sustainable foundation for future success.

Following last week's Virginia Tech Board of Visitors presentation, host Evan Hughes sat down with Deputy Athletics Director Danny White and Executive Associate AD / Athletics Chief Financial Officer Brandon Hall for an in-depth conversation about the state of Virginia Tech Athletics. The discussion covers Hokie Ventures, facility investments, department-wide success, transformational philanthropy and the continued momentum surrounding Hokie Football.
