Taller QBs fitting Tech's mold | Richmond Times-Dispatch

Bucky Hodges always rooted for a quarterback who stands just 6-feet tall. So Hodges never thought his height would be a key factor in raising his stock as a college prospect. Until recently.

@clarkbmichael: 2014 Grassfield (Va.) RB Vincent Lowe has sub-4.3 speed http://t.co/Becr9nKX

Vincent Lowe has interest from VT but does not have an offer at this point.

Vincent Lowe sounds like a kid who has his priorities straight. He seems like he has a strong head on his shoulders....obviously has blazing speed. He could do much worse than sports medicine at VT. Seems like a good mix...the offer isnt there because its so early? slow playing it? they want him to come to a camp?
The Hokies reclaimed the Commonwealth Cup on Nov. 27, 2004. Kendall Fuller was 8 years old.

If we're gonna consider a guy like Lowe, why not a guy like Josh Marriner? The kid's family is first class, his older brother played at W&M.....Josh is an excellent student as well. And with the new coach at WB putting in the flexbone offense, he'll likely get a lot of carries and yards.

Josh is a 2013 recruit and with the lack of numbers we probably will not extend an offer to him. Great guy though and a very underrated back.
