Impact Blackshear struggled on the ground averaging 1.5 YPC, but led the Hokies in receiving. Blackshear appears set as the Hokies No. 2 running back on the depth chart, but should still receive multiple looks in both the ground and passing game.

Virginia Tech upsets UNC: Top moments from Friday's college football action

Second in line during warmups Blackshear was second in line behind Jalen Holston for reps with the first-team offense in warmups ahead of Friday's game against UNC, Andy Bitter of The Athletic reports.

Impact Blackshear was listed as a co-starter on the team's Week 1 depth chart with Holston and Keshawn King and appears to be second in line for reps with the ones during warmups. The 5-9 back had a total of 86 touches for 409 yards and two touchdowns last season and could be used as more of a receiving back behind Holston in this year's offense.

Waiver denied for 2020 The NCAA denied Blackshear's request for a waiver Thursday, making him ineligible to play for Virginia Tech in 2020, Andy Bitter of The Athletic reports.

Impact Blackshear's denial comes as a bit of a surprise given the NCAA's general leniency in granting waivers this offseason. Unless Blackshear successfully appeals the NCAA's decision, Khalil Herbert, Jalen Holston and Keshawn King are left as the leading candidates to compete for reps out of the Hokies' backfield in 2020, assuming the season carries on as planned..
