The Hokies' fourth-year coach got to the point in explaining the hiring of his new offensive coordinator.
When Tyler Bowen made the stunning decision to leave Virginia Tech in February to become the offensive line coach at Ohio State, it left a void on Brent Pry's coaching staff that was a big opening. Pry did his due diligence and ended up hiring former Tulsa coach Philip Montgomery.
The hiring was seen as a hire really out of nowhere, but it was a hiring that could be one of the more underrated ones in college football when all is said and done in 2025.
