Virginia Tech’s ever-changing quarterback room will have a slightly different look again at Marshall on Saturday, with Hokies coach Brent Pry announcing that freshman quarterback Pop Watson has been suspended indefinitely for a violation of team rules.

The disciplinary action is not believed to be for something egregious — a source tells Tech Sideline that it’s a curfew-related punishment — but Watson, who was effectively the Hokies’ backup quarterback last week behind Kyron Drones due to Grant Wells’ ankle/foot injury, will not be available for at least this week.
