## Resource

Virginia Techs 2026 season kicks off with a new head coach, James Franklin, aiming to bounce back from a tough year. Despite a coaching change, the team retains a significant portion of its returning production, ranking fourth nationally. The defensive coordinator remains, and the transfer portal activity has been substantial, particularly at quarterback with Ethan Grunkemeyer joining from Penn State. The Hokies have also added talent across various positions, setting the stage for their first game against VMI on September fifth.
