Summary
Virginia Tech’s football program is on fire in recruiting, with head coach James Franklin turning things around in just seven months. The Hokies’ 2027 class is now ranked ninth nationally, fueled by big names like four-star QB Peter Bourque—once committed to Georgia—and elite tight end Jordan Karhoff. They’ve also landed top defensive lineman Joseph Buchanan and running back Javian Jones-Priest. But the real buzz? Five-star Virginia native Chris Whitehead, the state’s top 2027 prospect, just visited Blacksburg and could be the game-changer that propels them to a decade-defining recruiting class.
