Tony Elliott and the Virginia football coaching staff have done an excellent job in the past week in securing some late commitments to supplement the incoming recruiting class of 2022. In addition to the nine recruits retained from Bronco Mendenhall’s final recruiting class who confirmed their commitments to Virginia on early signing day, UVA has since added six more commits in the class of 2022, including one defensive lineman and five offensive linemen, a testament to the recruiting prowess of offensive line coach Garett Tujague.

Those commitments will be very important for the future of the Virginia football program, but it is crucial that UVA take advantage of the transfer portal to bring in talent that will be ready to play immediately. Before his resignation, Bronco Mendenhall received a transfer commitment from Wisconsin wide receiver Devin Chandler. Tony Elliott and his staff have also landed three other players through the transfer portal: Michigan State defensive end Jack Camper, Georgetown offensive lineman Mac Hollensteiner, and Dartmouth offensive lineman John Paul Flores. This is a great start, but with the number of departures from last year’s team due to graduation and the transfer portal, Virginia still has a number of areas of need on the roster.

Here are some of Virginia’s top remaining targets in the transfer portal:

Steven Stilianos Lafayette football
Andres Fox Stanford Cardinal football
Kameron Butler, Miami RedHawks football
Jacob Brammer North Texas Mean Green football
Paul Akere Columbia Lions football
Brian Greene Washington State Cougars football
Tyler Steen
