Bryan Randall is back under center and playing football. The former Virginia Tech quarterback threw for 240 yards and seven touchdowns to lead the Richmond Revolution to a 49-37 win over the Bloomington Extreme on Saturday in Bloomington, Ill. The Revolution and Extreme play in the Indoor Football League.

Randall is one of the most beloved players to ever don a Virginia Tech football jersey. He still holds school records for career passing (6,508) and career total offense (8,034). He was also the ACC Offensive Player of the Year in 2004, the Hokies’ first season in the conference. Randall led the team to the ACC title in that, his senior season.

Randall is not the only Hokie playing for the Revolution. Former defensive ends Lawrence Lewis and Noland Burchette, rover Michael Crawford, and former walk-on Chris Segaar are also on the Richmond Roster. And former Tech fullback Brian Edmonds is the team’s running backs coach.

The Revolution open their home slate on Saturday, March 13, at the Arthur Ashe Athletic Center. Kickoff is at 7:05 p.m. For more information on the team, or to purchase tickets, check out the team’s Web site at www.richmondrevolution.com.

Other Hokies in the IFL (that we know of) include former offensive lineman Nick Marshman, who plays for the Fairbanks Grizzlies. And yes, that’s Fairbanks, Alaska.
