Virginia Tech Hokies 2016 Roster Preview - Linebackers

There was the feeling when starting this preview that the article was going to be quick work. There was even the impulse, given the 2014 and 2015 defense field expedient configurations of 4-1-6 and 4-0-7 that the linebacker roster might be so light it could just be combined into the Defensive Backs preview (coming, folks, coming). Temptation to economize is not particularly fair to the existing brave but happy few (Where is good Prince Hal when you need him? - and this is about ‘college' football so you better be able to catch the reference.)

If there was a list of the neglected, undersized, and under recruited position in all of collegiate sports, the Virginia Tech Linebacker might be pretty close to the top of the list.
