On the ACC Football Coaches Teleconference Wednesday, Frank Beamer was asked about tight end Kalvin Cline's status for the Hokies' upcoming game against Ohio State. Cline was noticeably absent from the depth chart Virginia Tech released on Monday. Beamer punted and deferred those on the call to Tech's training staff. Mike Barber of the Richmond Times-Dispatch followed up with head athletic trainer Mike Goforth and reported Cline is healthy for Monday night.

This is very important. The Hokies have 3 solid TEs that will allow them to be versatile and multiple on offense.

"We got three tight ends that are really good players," quarterback Michael Brewer said at ACC Kickoff. "We feel like they can all play on the field at the same time. I think you'll see a lot of two tight end sets. And obviously you'll see some three tight end sets. You'll probably see a lot of two tight end sets, and then be able to have them flex, have them tight, basically put a lot of strain on the defense because of the multiple things they bring to the table, in the run game and the pass game."

Virginia Tech will try to leverage its favorable situation of three versatile, and proven, tight ends on the roster, and create mismatches in both the pass and run game.

"I think the real positive thing about our offense is three tight ends there (Ryan Malleck, Bucky Hodges, Kalvin Cline), that are tough kids," Frank Beamer said at ACC Kickoff. "They'll block inside for you, then you get them out in space and they get matched up on a linebacker or a strong safety and they give you some options there. They're good in space."

Cline caught 26 passes for 321 yards and two touchdowns as a true freshman in 2013. He missed most of the 2014 season with a knee injury, and was granted a medical hardship waiver.
