Episode Details

Virginia Tech’s defense is undergoing a major overhaul for 2026, led by new defensive coordinator Brent Pry, who’s bringing back key players like Kemari Copeland and Quentin Reddish while injecting fresh energy through transfers. The defensive line looks poised for dominance, with Copeland’s return and Spencer’s proven development track record. The linebacker corps remains a work in progress, relying on veteran Noah Chambers and unproven newcomers. The secondary is a “buy low” gamble, loaded with new talent and Reddish’s presence, but cohesion will be the key. Despite uncertainty, Pry’s leadership and the unit’s depth suggest a strong upward trajectory as the season unfolds.
