Virginia Tech dismissed junior defensive end Trevon Hill from its program for failing to uphold team standards, Hokies head coach Justin Fuente announced Sunday.
Hill's dismissal comes less than 24 hours after Virginia Tech suffered the most stunning upset of the college football season thus far in a 49-35 loss to Old Dominion.
"After consultation with our coaching staff and administration at Virginia Tech, Trevon Hill has been dismissed from the football team effective immediately for not upholding the high standards that we have for our student-athletes at Virginia Tech," Fuente said in a statement.
