Since 2005, the Hokies have started 5, 5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7,8, 7, 5, 6 and 5. In 2019 they look to start 5 again.
QB Ryan Willis showed some promise last year and should have a nice year as the clear cut starter this year, one of his backups is former Oregon QB Braxton Burmeister. TE Dalton Keene is a solid athlete and will likely be drafted whenever he's done at VT. LB Dax Hollifield slimmed down in the offseason and should be a better more athletic version of himself from last year (8 TFL). DT Jarrod Hewitt returns and LB Dylan Rivers who got a lot of playing time last year should also see a lot of time this year. Only 1 white starter on the offensive line but the depth is very promising there and they should have at least 3-4 white starting o-linemen in a year or two. RB Cole Beck should see the field this year in some form or fashion but he is buried on the RB depth chart.
Offense
QB Ryan Willis
TE Dalton Keene
C Brock Hoffman (if eligible) or Zachariah Hoyt
Defense
DT Jarrod Hewitt
LB Dax Hollifield
Players to watch:
QB Braxton Burmeister, RB Cole Beck, TE Nick Gallo, OL Austin Cannon, OL Doug Nester, OL John Harris, OL Walker Culver, OL Luke Tenuta, LB Dylan Rivers
