Franklin's First Test: Hokies Dominate VMI | Virginia Tech Hokie Football News
Description
Virginia Tech opens under new head coach James Franklin with a massive 50+ point favorite against VMI, setting the stage for bold offensive experimentation. Expect all four quarterbacks — led by transfer Ethan Grunkemeyer (projected for 3 TDs) — to see action, especially as the game unfolds and backups like Bryce Baker, Troy Huhn, and Kelden Ryan get reps. With elite weapons at receiver and on the ground, Grunkemeyer won’t need to dominate stats — his role is likely short-lived once the Hokies pull away. On defense, expect a shutout: VMI’s offense is predicted to be held scoreless entirely, thanks to Virginia Tech’s overwhelming talent advantage. This game offers the first real glimpse into Franklin’s vision — dominance, depth, and defensive perfection.
