Vaipulu was a part-time starter for Georgia Tech and started four games this season and five games last year. 

Vaipulu joins quarterbacks Jeff Sims and Taisun Phommachanh, wide receivers Nate McCollum and Ryan King, kicker Jude Kelley, linebacker Demetrius Knight, Adams, and defensive back Derrik Allen are the other Georgia Tech players that have entered the portals.

It is going to be up to head coach Brent Key to help reshape the roster and fill the holes left by players transferring out. Vaipulu provided depth for the offensive line and the Yellow Jackets staff will either have to rely on one of the five true freshman offensive linemen in this year's recruiting class or find more help in the portal.
