Virginia Tech's Running Back Group: Overton Shines, Injuries Loom

from Virginia Tech Hokies Football Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Virginia Techs running back group is gearing up for the spring game, with Jeffrey Overton standing out as a top contender. Overton, a redshirt freshman, has recovered from an ACL injury and has shown impressive skills on the field. He has bulked up and is now a receiving threat. However, other key players like Louisiana transfer Bill Davis, true freshman Messiah Mickens, and top back Marcellous Hawkins are limited due to injuries or weight issues. To fill the depth chart, they have flipped walk-on linebacker Darius Taylor to tailback. The spring game is on April eighteenth, and the season starts on September fifth.
