Virginia Tech Football: Georgia Tech’s Brent Key Compares Hokies QB Kyron Drones to Eagles QB Jalen Hurts
Virginia Tech is going to be hosting Georgia Tech this Saturday in a big ACC matchup. The Hokies are hoping to pick up another win this weekend and keep their ACC title game hopes alive.
One of the key players in this game on Saturday is going to be Virginia Tech’s QB Kyron Drones. Drones is probably the most dynamic quarterback that the Yellow Jackets have seen this year and his ability to beat you with his arm and his legs makes him dangerous. During his Thursday media availability, Yellow Jackets head coach Brent Key praised Drones dynamic ability and compared him to another dynamic quarterback:
“Yeah, anytime in football, especially college football, when you’ve got a quarterback that can do both and can break you down. Now, in the passing game, you’re playing man-to -man coverage. You got guys turning their backs to the line of scrimmage. You got to be cage responsible in pass rush. So it takes a little bit of the freedom away from those guys to do things. But we’ve got to be responsible with that. But just his ability to run, he reminds me a lot of– even with the size and the build and the way he carries himself, he reminds you of Jalen Hurts with what he does on the field, you know. The way he runs around is a big strong kid. You know, they’re doing a good job with the concepts that he’s throwing and who he’s throwing to. And then they do a really good job in the run game, whether it be him, you know, on the quarterback run, a draw, a scramble, or some sort of a replay”
Key was the offensive line coach at Alabama while Hurts was the quarterback for the Crimson Tide.
Drones and this offense are going to face a Georgia Tech defense that is strong against the run, but they have a hard time getting pressure on the quarterback and have allowed explosive plays through the air. Will Drones be able to take advantage? That is going to be something to watch on Saturday.

West Virginia commit announces decision by blasting ‘Country Roads,’ lighting a couch on fire
A big moment in any student-athlete’s career is announcing what school they’re committing to, and I don’t think you’re going to find an announcement better than one we’ve got coming from one of the newest West Virginia Mountaineers.
What’s that smell? It… it smells like a couch burning to the sounds of the Mountaineers’ beloved John Denver “Take Me Home, Country Roads.”
You bet your sweet a– that’s what it is.

Ethan Lawson is a 6’6″, 300-lb offensive lineman and part of the 2027 recruiting class.

According to Sport Illustrated he has fielded offers from a bunch of programs including Appalachian State, Liberty, Air Force, Army, Navy, Duke, Wake Forest, UConn and more.
But, they all missed out because Lawson posted his decision on X, and well… I think he was always West Virginia material.
Bobcat Goldthwait was burning couches on camera before it was cool.
But, alright, there’s no doubt about it: someone is about to sell some jerseys.

And if there’s not a furniture store in Morgantown that brings in Lawson and fellow offensive line recruit Kevin Brown (who also lit a couch on fire because that’s becoming a thing) for an ad, then… then, well, I don’t know what, but it would be quite the missed opportunity.

I refuse to believe any Mountaineers fans saw that video, heard the song and then didn’t reflexively raise a beer (even if they didn’t realize they were drinking one and say, “Hell yeah, brother.”)
We’ll see if the sort of thing translates onto the field, but even if it doesn’t, I feel like there’s money to be made making appearances and lighting furniture on fire at frat parties.
