ESPN to air Michael Vick “30 for 30” special later this month

Michael Vick is the greatest quarterback in Virginia Tech history. Arguably, Vick is the greatest player in school history, too, although Bruce Smith could also make that claim. Vick took the Hokies to the 1999 national championship game, in which they led when the fourth quarter began. Just over a year later, Vick would become the No. 1 overall pick in the 2001 NFL Draft.

Now, ESPN is taking a look back at Vick’s storied career, including his amazing rise, dramatic fall and controversial comeback. The much-acclaimed “30 for 30” series will feature a two-part documentary on Vick that begins on Thursday, January 30 at 9 pm ET and continues the following Thursday, February 6 at 9 pm ET.
