Virginia, Virginia Tech Enhance Football Rosters with Key Transfers

The Virginia Cavaliers are aiming to rebound from a disappointing 2024 football season by bolstering their roster through key transfer additions. Notably, Virginia secured former Georgia State cornerback Ja'Maric Morris, a standout cover corner with two interceptions last season, to strengthen their defense. Addressing a pressing need on the offensive line, the Cavaliers also landed Arkansas State’s Makilan Thomas, an experienced tackle expected to start and help the team overcome recent injuries and transfers. Both Morris and Thomas are projected as immediate contributors as Virginia seeks its first bowl appearance since 2019 and a return to winning form. The sense of urgency and determination within the program is echoed by players and coaches, who are focused on flipping the team’s fortunes and achieving bowl eligibility in 2025.
