The transfer portal remains busy for a pair of area college basketball players. Less than a week after leaving Old Dominion University for the portal, guard Mekhi Long has found his landing spot. According to his social media, he's opted to head to Virginia Tech.
Long was the Monarchs third leading scorer and top rebounder averaging 10 points a game to go with 8 boards. While in the Sun Belt, he led the conference in double-doubles.
Reports indicate he chose the Hokies over Arkansas, Clemson, James Madison, Alabama Birmingham, or a possible return to Rhode Island where he started his career.
