In the least surprising news of the summer, Virginia Tech head coach Brent Pry has named Grant Wells the starting quarterback. Pry announced the decision Wednesday during a Triumph NIL livestream.
“In the end, right now, we feel like Grant.....he’s the furthest along,” Pry said per Andy Bitter of Tech Sideline.
Wells transferred to Virginia Tech before the 2022 season and started 11 games for the Hokies last season. He completed 196 of 332 passing attempts for 2,171 yards. He had nine touchdowns and nine interceptions and was sacked 30 times. Wells had four interceptions in the season opener at Old Dominion last season but threw just five the remainder of the season.
