The Virginia Tech Hokies could have one of the ACC’s best quarterbacks in 2026. Ethan Grunkemeyer will be Virginia Tech’s starting quarterback in 2026. He transferred to Virginia Tech this offseason, following James Franklin, Ty Howle and Danny O’Brien from Penn State.
After redshirting his first season, Grunkemeyer was forced into the lineup after Drew Allar’s injury last season and played well. After Penn State started the season 3-6, Grunkemeyer rallied the Nittany Lions to bowl eligibility after Franklin’s firing.
He was one of the top quarterbacks available in the transfer portal this offseason, and the top target for the Hokies.

Andy Staples of On3 ranked the top 10 quarterbacks in the ACC for 2026. He has Grunkemeyer ranked No. 8.
