When Virginia Tech got a commitment from Richmond native and wide receiver Takye Heath out of Highland Springs High School, head coach Brent Pry knew he was getting a player who was really talented. However, things have been easy for the redshirt sophomore during his time in Blacksburg.
The 5-foot-10 speedster played in three games in 2023 before playing in seven games last year, very sparingly, having just one reception and a carry. Just what his future with the program was remained to be seen, but one thing is for sure: neither Heath nor Pry was ready to give up.
