2008 Spring Football Preview: The Offensive Backfield

Virginia Tech will open spring practice on Wednesday, March 26, and there are
a number of question marks that must be answered on both sides of the ball, not
the least of which are in the offensive backfield. The Hokies enter the spring
with two good quarterbacks, but no clear starter, depth issues at tailback and
not much experience at fullback. We should see quite a battle for playing time
at all three positions.

Here’s the pre-spring depth chart, the way TSL sees it.
