Dwayne Lawson To Redshirt?
Steve Mitchell-USA TODAY SportsSwiss bank accounts have nothing on Justin Fuente and staff in terms of quarterbacks. This spring has shed little light on the crowded backfield. Beat writer Andy Bitter from The Roanoke Times wrote a recent article surrounding the QB competition. You can read Andy's article here. After reading that Jerod Evans and Brenden Motley are leading the pack, the questions surrounding sophomore Dwayne Lawson loom large. When QB Michael Brewer went down to injury last season, Motley stepped in to lead the Hokies. Lawson was used only a handful of times last year, which some fans labeled as a waste of eligibility. For whatever the reason, Lawson didn't get a fair chance to live up to his billing. This season, with a new regime, Lawson has a fresh slate to turn the coaches heads. Hearing that Lawson is trailing Motley and Evans is no surprise. Motley has D1 experience, and Evans was a juco super stud.
