Corey Moore made quite an impression on the football field for the Virginia Tech Hokies in the late 1990s, helping fuel Virginia Tech’s rise to national prominence.
Moore will receive the school’s highest athletic honor in October, joining four others as the class of 2010 is inducted into the school’s athletic Hall of Fame. ( Read More…)

Virginia Tech Hokies head coach Frank Beamer has received a contract extension through the 2016 season.
His current deal was supposed to run out at the end of the 2012 season, but there was never any concern it wouldn’t get done.
Beamer isn’t going anywhere, as he has built the Virginia Tech football program and will retire from the job.
He is entering his 24th season as the Hokies head coach and is second in wins among active coaches. ( Read More…)

It may only be June, but the Virginia Tech Hokies are already extremely excited for the upcoming basketball season. With the news that guard Malcolm Delaney would return for his senior season, expectations were quickly raised.
Some of that was Delaney’s doing, as the guard proclaimed that the Hokies could make a run to the Final Four. It’s highly doubtful that Virginia Tech is that good, but they could certainly be near the top of the ACC.
Other than Duke and maybe North Carolina, the ACC really looks wide open thanks to graduating players and NBA defections.
