Khalil Herbert is on pace for a record-breaking season
Nell Redmond-USA TODAY Sports The Hokies have missed a game-changing running back for nearly a decade. The last time Tech had a player rush for over 1,000 yards in a single season was 2015, when Travon McMillian tallied 1,043. McMillian is the only player to eclipse that mark since 2011, the days of David Wilson. Khalil Herbert looks poised to join that club and stamp his mark on Virginia Tech Football history - despite his short stay.
Herbert currently leads the nation in average yards per carry with 10.4. His five touchdowns have him eighth in the country, but there are two Hokies’ records he might be able to challenge this season.
