By Mychal Hunter Since I started ACCBR in September of 2017 few players have been the topic of my weekly podcast more often than Virginia Tech's Kerry Blackshear Jr. I often talk about how good the Hokies would be if the versatile 6'10 big man could simply stay on the floor. As we all know, …

Virginia Tech added to its 2019 recruiting class yesterday, receiving a commitment from combo guard Andre Gordon of Huntington Prep. https://twitter.com/coreyevans_10/status/1051989290526433281 Gordon is currently ranked 195th in the nation and the #1 player in Ohio.
