Every Hokie Scholarship DE is over 240lbs

The Hokiesports football roster has been updated, and perhaps most startling are some of the numbers at defensive line.

Every VT defensive end is over 240 pounds.
Vinny Mihota- 264lbs
Trevon Hill 240lbs
Jimmie Taylor 240lbs
Darius Fullwood 252 lbs
Seth Dooley 252lbs
Houshun Gaines 248lbs
Ken Ekanem 260lbs

I think being stronger at the point of attack and more gap sound has been a major point of emphasis this off season. It will produce just as many tackles for loss if those defensive linemen keep their feet moving at contact and cross face when the play flows away from them.

Tim Settle is checking in at 328, down from 360 last year.

Nijman is up to 300lbs. Wyatt Teller is 308.

Freshmen Thomas Hopple is listed at 6'7. Freshman center prospect Zachariah Hoyt is 6'5.
