One former Rutgers star has announced his next destination.

Raheem Blackshear was a do-it-all multi-purpose back during his three seasons at Rutgers. In 2018, Blackshear led the Scarlet Knights in both rushing and receiving while posting 953 total yards of offense.

Unfortunately, Blackshear announced his plans to preserve his redshirt after appearing in four games this season. While he did not initially announce plans to transfer, he eventually hit the transfer portal.

Now, Blackshear is on his way to Virginia Tech:

Blackshear finishes his time in Rutgers with over 1,700 yards of offense and 12 touchdowns. Despite appearing in just four games, he still finished second on the team with 310 yards receiving in 2019.

Best of luck to Blackshear as he moves on to the ACC.
