The NCAA transfer portal doesn’t open until next week, but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t been busy. For the fourth time since a disappointing 19-13 season ended last month, the Virginia Tech Hokies saw a fourth player reveal his intention to enter the portal. On Friday, junior guard Jaden Schutt became the latest Hokie expected to depart.
The 6-foot-5, 200-pound guard is a native of Yorkville, Illinois, and began his college career at Duke. A four-star prospect, Schutt appeared in 14 games as a freshman for the Blue Devils, averaging seven minutes and two points per game.

In his first season for the Hokies in 2024-25, Schutt appeared in 32 games, making 26 starts. He played 26 minutes per game and averaged 7.7 points. Last season, Schutt served as Virginia Tech’s sixth man, playing 24 minutes per contest and averaging 7.7 points.
Schutt joins Neoklis Avdalas, Izaiah Pasha and Christian Gurdak as Hokies expected to enter the transfer portal. Known for his outside shooting, Schutt is a career 37% 3-point shooter, only 37.4% from the field altogether.
