VT changes mind: Taylor to play, not redshirt

Well that was quick. After stating that sophomore QB Tyrod Taylor would redshirt this season and senior Sean Glennon will be the starting QB, Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer changed his mind after a season opening loss to unranked East Carolina. Glennon, who went---23 for 139 yards and 2 INT's, will share duties with the more mobile Taylor who gives the Hokies a better chance to move the ball behind a porous O-Line. I just don't get this thinking, after one game in which Glennon struggled, but the decision about Taylor's redshirt had to be a thought out one that wouldn't be changed after just one game! I don't like Beamer's flip in thought, but I guess he's trying to get the Hokies to play better after that bad start.
