## Resource

Bhayshul Hawkins, Virginia Tech’s surprise running back sensation, exploded onto the scene last season with 749 rushing yards and a breakout performance against California—where he shattered his own record with 167 yards. Despite being a Division II transfer and initially overshadowed by veteran Terion Stewart, Hawkins proved his worth as the team’s go-to guy on third downs, showcasing his elusive style that combines agility with powerful yards after contact. He even studies Saquon Barkley’s film to refine his game. Though sidelined briefly with a shoulder injury, Hawkins is back and hungry for his final college season, fueled by confidence and a strong connection with his head coach. The Hokies open their campaign Sept. 5 against VMI—Hawkins is ready to make his mark and turn heads for the NFL.
