WVU Football Depth Chart: Virginia Tech
On Sunday night, West Virginia head coach Neal Brown released the depth chart ahead of the Mountaineers' matchup versus old rival Virginia Tech Thursday night at 7:30 with the action airing on ESPN.
There have been some changes to the two-deep this week, primarily on the defensive side Lance Dixon has moved from Will Linebacker to starting SPEAR, and Jasir Cox has moved from SPEAR to Will. With Preseason All-Big 12 corner Charles Woods is out for an undisclosed time, Wesley McCormick and Rashad Ajayi will start at right and left corner, respectively, while defense end Sean Martin will look to make his second consecutive start this week.
Offensively, lineman Brandon Yates is making the move back to left tackle from right tackle.
The depth chart is subject to change prior to kickoff.
