Thinking maybe now? Just broke Glennon, no INT record and O is putting up

Yardage and the points in only 7 starts. Me says a lot more upside. He has the tools.

Drones
Jhanks98 • 10/07/23 07:28 PM ET
I would say an inconsistent passer, some were great
83hokieee • 10/07/23 09:21 PM ET
Completely disagree. He has nice touch.
Hardcore_Hokie • 10/07/23 08:32 PM ET
This. The young man is in his what, 4th college start? He is worlds
Tombo • 10/07/23 09:49 PM ET
Drones has a ton of talent and throws a nice ball.
Hardcore_Hokie • 10/07/23 09:56 PM ET
He seems "more comfortable" when he is throwing off balance. I am not sure
VTHokie2000 • 10/07/23 09:02 PM ET
missing the 'wo TD on the flanker reverse big hurt but his scramble is big**
VPIAlums • 10/07/23 08:04 PM ET
agree**
Windows NT • 10/07/23 08:12 PM ET
You didn't watch the Pitt game, obviously, and you saw the defense he
ancient alien 2018 • 10/07/23 07:49 PM ET
Why are you bringing up just the Pitt and Fl St games?**
Jeffroww • 10/07/23 07:59 PM ET
I think we all know this is a “show progress” year for the team **
SunDevilHokie • 10/07/23 08:11 PM ET
I agree..
HokieMike94 • 10/07/23 07:44 PM ET
We need Brewer, Evans, like passing with Drones body & running ability **
AirForceHokie77 • 10/07/23 08:12 PM ET
Nice accesssment **
bonedoc • 10/07/23 07:44 PM ET
He’s the right guy for a team that can’t block
Squatro • 10/07/23 07:32 PM ET
Drones as a QB is a lot better than Wells**
Windows NT • 10/07/23 07:31 PM ET
I think the line and receivers are playing better than the first two games.
83hokieee • 10/07/23 09:25 PM ET
Wells is well now. if Drones starts next wk, is he the right QB for this O?**
Windows NT • 10/07/23 09:29 PM ET
Yep, just needs a little more time in the pocket, protection and experience**
Lane2024 • 10/07/23 07:50 PM ET
Maybe. Maybe not. Two staffs saw a lot of him and thought otherwise.**

Lane2024 • 10/28/23 02:01 PM ET
2 staffs think Wells is better than Drones? they should be off the program**
Windows NT • 10/07/23 08:07 PM ET
No he’s not. But he may be the best alternative going forward.
marcbvtgm • 10/07/23 07:36 PM ET
Successful pure pocket passers have been few and far between at VT.
MP4VT2004 • 10/07/23 08:20 PM ET
Druckenmiller, but since MV we have had a preference for a like QB**
83hokieee • 10/07/23 09:28 PM ET
Nonsense. If VT could have gotten Drake Mayes, he would be just fine at VT
marcbvtgm • 10/07/23 08:27 PM ET
You kind of made my point.
MP4VT2004 • 10/07/23 09:20 PM ET
It’s because colleges have to recruit rather than draft their players. Not
Hoakie82 • 10/07/23 10:50 PM ET
drunk had one hell of a line blocking for him**
Windows NT • 10/07/23 08:44 PM ET
Wells is gone next year and I don't think we have a "stud" in waiting...
apbaker73 • 10/07/23 07:45 PM ET
5 star QBs are not looking at VT. So it's best to develop the 4 stars**
Windows NT • 10/07/23 07:56 PM ET
No, it’s best to develop good QBs. VT has not lacked for 4* QBs, yet…**
marcbvtgm • 10/07/23 07:58 PM ET
before Drones, Hooker was the last 4* and we screwed up BIGLY**
Windows NT • 10/07/23 08:00 PM ET
Ummm, Quincy Patterson. And VT screwed up BIGLY, but not by not playing him**
marcbvtgm • 10/07/23 08:06 PM ET
Quincy, a project, couldn't start at North Dakota State
Windows NT • 10/07/23 08:09 PM ET
North Dakota State is not your typical DI-FCS program though, so I wouldn't
VTHokie2000 • 10/07/23 08:22 PM ET
how's he doing at Temple?**
Windows NT • 10/07/23 08:31 PM ET
He has played in all 6 games at Temple, but I am not sure that proves
VTHokie2000 • 10/07/23 08:53 PM ET
Cool how you moved the goalposts and are still wrong.**
marcbvtgm • 10/07/23 08:20 PM ET
Doesn’t Wells have a Covid year left?**
marcbvtgm • 10/07/23 07:56 PM ET
Yes, but he won't be here next year.....likely moving on with life.
Nortazhokie • 10/07/23 08:28 PM ET
doesn't matter. he won't start**
Windows NT • 10/07/23 07:58 PM ET
We’ll see.**
marcbvtgm • 10/07/23 07:58 PM ET
Unless a delusional fanbase thinks another new shiny toy is the answer
marcbvtgm • 10/07/23 07:47 PM ET
Drones is not “a long way from being a true dual threat”. He is one now.
