1) I’ve got a couple of questions regarding Virginia Tech quarterbacks this week, so I thought I’d include them both.
If a QB needs help with mechanics, be it throwing or footwork, can Bowen competently do that? Or would they have a specialist come help with that who may not be an assigned coach? Just wondering because it seems like a stretch for Bowen to do that very detailed coaching. – Mark from Pittsburgh

Chris Coleman: I almost always have a take on anything Virginia Tech sports related, and I’ll tell you when I do. But in this particular case, I don’t have a take on Tyler Bowen as a QB coach. There are examples of guys like Bowen working out at a new position, sometimes brilliantly, and there are other examples of guys not working out. This week, I went over some guys who have worked out, but on the other side of the coin, Zohn Burden had never coached running backs until Justin Fuente put him in that role, and it didn’t work out. Now, he’s back to being a wide receivers coach at Duke.
