BLACKSBURG – With Virginia Tech’s season opener with West Virginia at FedExField 25 days away, head coach Justin Fuente, cornerbacks coach Brian Mitchell and five student-athletes addressed the media on Wednesday as part of the Hokies’ weekly availability. Here are the highlights:
HILL AND MIHOTA ARE BACK AND HEALTHY
Redshirt junior Vinny Mihota and redshirt sophomore Trevon Hill are back for the Hokies at defensive end after both missed the spring due to shoulder surgeries. The defensive ends battled through their ailments over the course of the season – with Mihota missing the bowl game against Arkansas entirely – but both are back to full strength in fall camp.
