BLACKSBURG
There wasn't a happier man in Blacksburg on Thursday than Billy Hite. As Virginia Tech opened preseason football practice, the Hokies' running backs coach couldn't quit grinning. His speech was impeded by borderline giggles.
Who could blame him? A case could be made that no team this side of Southern California has stockpiled as much talent at tailback as Tech. Three of Hite's top four backs were high school All-Americans.
The other, Josh Oglesby, is a weight room warrior who has been feverishly trying to wrestle playing time away from the others. Hite called his current backfield "the best top to bottom" that he's ever had.
"Before, I might've had two great ones and two good ones," he said. "But right now, any of those four guys, you can shake them up in a bag, pull one out and put them in the game. They're special."
