The state of the program is once again in a phase of uncertainty. A chapter that leaves even the most optimistic fans questioning, “What happened to Virginia Tech football?” We often hear how Frank Beamer’s time has long past, and even the most loyal of fans would defend the legend time after time again. However, last week’s loss to East Carolina finally gave me the realization that even Bud Foster, who I will continue to tell myself is the best defensive coordinator in college football, has me asking “What happened to Virginia Tech’s defense?” Once again, this team leaves many questions unanswered as they enter ACC play. We had a similar feeling last year entering the month of October.
