Virginia Tech football: 15 days til kickoff with a look back at Don Strock

Today is August 16, 2019, which means we are officially just 15 days away from the Virginia Tech Hokies opening the college football season at Boston College. Yesterday, we profiled No. 16, quarterback Jim Druckenmiller. Druckenmiller was extremely instrumental in Virginia Tech’s success when the current bowl streak began.

For No. 15, we look back at another quarterback; Don Strock. Strock arrived at Virginia Tech from Owen J. Roberts High in Bucktown, Pa. In his first year, Strock played behind Gil Schwabe and Bob German. He did appear in all 11 games for the Hokies. He struggled during his first year, completing just 17 of 46 passes for 189 yards.
