This week we’ve taken a look at a few players who we expect to have a big impact on the team this fall, and we conclude the week by looking at B-Back KirVonte Benson, who was named second team All-ACC in 2017. Benson ran for 1053 yards and 6 touchdowns on 204 carries, an average of 5.2 yards per carry.
In 2017, Benson came out of nowhere. When Dedrick Mills was dismissed from the team just 17 days before the first game, it seemed that Tech was severely lacking depth and experience at the B-Back position. Only Quade Weimerskirch had ever carried the ball in a game, and he had been used only sparingly.
