Virginia Tech’s Culture Shift Begins | Virginia Tech Hokie Football News

Virginia Tech’s football program is on the rise after a brutal 3-win season, thanks to new coach James Franklin’s culture overhaul and a revamped roster full of transfers and returning stars. The real test? Turning talent into team cohesion before kickoff. Key players like QB Ethan Grunkemeyer and TE Luke Reynolds are poised to shine, while Kemari Copeland’s veteran defense could dominate — though the secondary remains unproven. Depth across every position promises fierce competition in camp, where Franklin’s message of grit and accountability will be put to the ultimate test. This fall’s practices aren’t just about reps — they’re about building identity, answering questions, and proving this squad can deliver beyond last year’s struggles.
