The day was not a total lose for Beamer's team though, as Virginia Tech announced they have signed the No. 2 dual-threat quarterback in the country, Bucky Hodges. The 6-foot-6, 225-pounder is a four-star recruit from Virginia Beach, VA and was one of the more sought-after recruits during the spring game season.
