In search of Tyrod's backup in 2009

Tyrod Taylor’s presence in Blacksburg sure is making it hard for Virginia Tech to recruit quarterbacks. The Hokies got a commitment from Ju-Ju Clayton on Wednesday, a quarterback from Richmond. The other schools at the top of his list were Army, William and Mary, Norfolk State and Youngstown State. Maybe the Tech staff knows something nobody else does, but after this year Clayton is the only backup to Taylor and he might not join the team until 2009 spring practice. A top quarterback for the class of 2009 is certainly a must in case Taylor is injured and Clayton is overmatched. — Jeff Gilbert

  1. Hopefully we'll get to see Tyrod Taylor at a full start this year. Glennon is good but Tyrod is the future of the program
