Tight End Kalvin Cline Announces Transfer to Texas A&M

Kalvin Cline's fall collection will no longer include Chicago maroon and burnt orange. The former Virginia Tech tight end announced his upcoming transfer to Texas A&M.

"Couldn't be more thankful for my time at Virginia Tech," Cline wrote on Instagram. "It's been an amazing 3 years and Hokie Nation has a special place in my heart. It was truly an honor to play for a legend like Frank Beamer and I wish nothing but the best for my teammates this up coming season. But after I graduate in May I will be finishing my last 2 years of eligibility at Texas A&M. Can't wait to do big things at College station and see the 12th man light up the stadium! Gig'em Aggies!!"

Cline caught 30 passes for 362 yards and 2 touchdowns during his Hokies' career. 87% of those catches occurred during a breakout true freshman season for a relatively unknown prospect. Cline played just one year of high school football and committed to Tech the May after national signing day in 2013.

A knee injury derailed Cline in all but two games his sophomore season (he was granted a medical hardship), and he never seemed to get on track in 2015.

As a sophomore, Cline joined Tech's Corps of Cadets.

"Coming into college, you can imagine having academics, football and doing the Corps is a lot for anybody. So I decided I was just going to focus on football and school," Cline told The Key Play in September 2014. "And then I had a great GPA, with football I had a great year, and then I was like 'I do have some time to do another one of my passions,' and that's the military. So I thought this year it would fit a lot better, so I've been catching up with everything and its been going well."

Texas A&M also offers a Corps of Cadets program.

Additionally, former Virginia Tech WRs coach Aaron Moorehead serves the same position with the Aggies.
