It’s never too early to look at what’s to come. Over the next few weeks, we will give you a peek at what is ahead for teams in the Power 5 conferences and some other teams expected to be players on the national scene. Next up: Virginia Tech Hokies.
The first victory for Virginia Tech in the 2016-17 season is already in the books: knowing that coach Buzz Williams will be around for a third season.
