The real test? Watching the revamped offense, led by new QB Ethan Grunkemeyer, connect with emerging receivers QueSean Brown and Luke Reynolds — a former top recruit poised to shine after flashes at Penn State. With tight ends expected to play a bigger role, the balance between wideouts and TEs will be key. Grunkemeyer’s pocket passing could elevate the passing game, but can it spark ACC contention? And who’ll emerge as the true No. 1 receiver — Brown or returning Greene? The offensive and defensive lines, especially alongside Kemari Copeland, also face big questions. This opener won’t answer everything — but it’s the first real glimpse into what this Hokies team is built to be.
