Georgia lands commitment from talented Virginia Tech graduate transfer forward
A number of players have transferred from the Virginia Tech program after Buzz Williams left for Texas A&M, and that trend continued recently.
Talented 6-7 forward PJ Horne — who started for the Hokies this past season — recently entered the NCAA transfer portal, and now he’s heading back to his home state.
As you can see below, it was reported by Rivals’ Dan McDonald that Horne had committed to Tom Crean and the Georgia Bulldogs:

As a graduate transfer, Horne will be able to play immediately and will have 1 year of eligibility remaining.
During the 2019-20 season, Horne appeared in 32 games, starting 30 of them. He averaged 7.6 points and 4.2 rebounds per contest.
