Nolley has left the transfer portal is returning to VT.
@coreyevans_10 Giant win for Virginia Tech as Landers Nolley will no longer transfer from the program, a source tells @Rivals. Former four-star prospect that sat out last season. Has the chance to be the Hokies’ top scorer next season

To summarize CW said in his podcast today that he thinks we have a shot at Gilder. Tucker and Blackshear are in the mix but long shots. He said there are more but those are 3 names he knows of
@GoodmanHoops Howard 6-1 sophomore guard R.J. Cole told @Stadium he has put his name in the transfer portal and also will declare for the NBA Draft. Cole was MEAC Player of the Year and averaged 21.4 points per game. Former Howard coach Kevin Nickelberry told me he’s a definite high-major guy.

We’re up to, what, 2,000 guys in the draft? I get that it’s a no lose situation for most, but you’d think it would make it harder for the not quite sure thing guys to get the attention they probably deserve.
Right. I feel almost left out that I didn't declare and get my evaluation yet. I mean when you have guys like Wiescamp declaring and they have no shot of getting drafted. It seems pretty dumb these days. I get why they do it. It's almost dumb not to do it to get your name out. I just remember the good old days of someone declaring and that meant they were gone.
It's definitely a better system, but I'm guessing NBA scouts dismiss about 3/4 of early entrants as not serious contenders within the first day.
A reminder for everyone (because I had to look it up myself) that Twins is referring to Admon Gilder, a graduate transfer from Texas A&M. 6-foot-4 guard who sat out all of 2018-19 with a blood clot in his right bicep. He apparently has been cleared medically to play next season.

"Gilder's departure from College Station would be a blow for the Aggies. His experience, leadership and ability to play both ends of the court was what made him one of the better guards in the SEC. In starting 29 of 30 games as a junior, Gilder averaged 12.3 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.6 assists per contest.
Gilder additionally shot 40 percent from the 3-point line, connected on 82 percent from the free throw line and led the Aggies in total steals with 37, which ranked eighth in the SEC in per-game average."
He would be a huge pickup.
Thanks. Now maybe you could give us a reminder about who Tucker and Blackshear are?
I know Blackshear. However, who is Tucker? Besides Talen Horton Tucker I was not aware of a Tucker. Let's start using first and last names so we can use google.
Rayjon Tucker: https://247sports.com/Player/Rayjon-Tucker-67807/
Kerry Blackshear: https://247sports.com/player/kerry-blackshear-jr-31305/
Tucker is the Little-Rock transfer.
Blackshear is the Va Tech transfer. If you watched Va Tech in the tournament he was talked about, often. He was their stud.
Thank you again.
I'll probably need this refresher in a couple days so don't misplace those links.
And both have entered the draft as early entrants. Lots to keep track of.
