Virginia Tech has been practicing since Friday, and while they’ve only spent
one day in full pads, there is still news to report. The Hokies have some minor
injuries at a few positions, but for the most part things are going smoothly.

The following players have missed all or part of the preseason thus far due
to minor injuries: Dyrell Roberts, Nick Becton, Michael Via, James Gayle, Alonzo
Tweedy, Jayron Hosley and Lorenzo Williams. That might sound bad, but all of
those guys are expected to be fine.

Some preseasons go smoothly with injuries, and others don’t. For example,
Florida State lost two players on Tuesday to non-contact torn ACL’s. The Hokies
have some pulled hammies and turf toes, but overall they are in good health.
Knock on wood.
