Virginia Tech Hokies DB, Brion Murray, Suspended for Season Opener

The Virginia Tech Hokies roster took another hit today when redshirt senior, Brion Murray, was suspended for, at least, the VT opener against the Old Dominion Monarchs. This information comes on the heels of the revelation that explosive Hokie RB, Malachi Thomas, would not be playing in Norfolk on Friday.

The Roanoke Times reported that Murray was arrested due to a misdemeanor fugitive arrest charge associated with several traffic violations occurring in Maryland earlier this year.

Virginia Tech head coach, Brent Pry, described the incident as, “a lesson for the whole team,” and explained how the program aims to provide resources for the players to avoid similar issues.
