Michael Vick Virginia Tech Highlights

- A complete compilation of Michael Vick's freshman year highlights at Virginia Tech University. The electrifying freshman burst onto the scene after a redshirt year, carving up defenses with magnificent running skills and timely passing. Vick carried the Hokies to a berth in the 2000 BCS Title game, where he put on a show in a valiant effort against the much stronger Seminoles team.
The games I used to take the clips from can be found on a wonderful VT-centric channel called hokietapes. You can find them here: / hokietapes

1:These are highlights from his freshman year only. I couldn't find all of his sophomore year games, so I'll make that video later.
2: Please keep these comments civil.

His freshman year was all that mattered! It was the reason he was the number one pick in the draft a year later!
Love the score against uva
Vick highlights are like Tyson knockouts to me… could watch anytime!
Mike vick will always be a legend. Never seen a guy so effortlessly throw a ball 65yds in the air. Him arm was stupid
Totally agree, I keep seeing post talking about how he had a bad arm and was a terrible passer. Mike had a arm like nobody else with 4.3 speed
@@blxbrg2169 Vick has arguably a top 5 arm talent in nfl history, the guy could throw a football 80 yards with one of the tightest spirals ever, and all of it throwing with his left hand which makes it even more crazy
@@ballsballsballs3617 I actually was lucky enough to see him throw one of his insane passes out of Lane!!!! He actually was #1 in passing efficiency in the country the 1999 season, I believe that’s correct. And a lefty like you said
Had a 22-2 Record at Virginia Tech. One of the CFB Greats.
Randy moss,Mike VICK Barry Sanders, Deion Sanders, changed the NFL with there unique style of play and athleticism
Silo G bo Jackson
Silo G dont forget Cunningham.
Yeah, you forgot Bo Jackson and Randall Cunningham.
Joshua L both of y’all forgot Steve Young Vick’s inspiration what he wanted to be as QB Young has the legs and the Arm
Not to mention the joystick, John Randell, Lott, Rice, Chad Johnson, TO, tony G, and others. Also could you imagine if Steve largent had gloves? Dude rarely dropped with bare hands he'd be cheesing with gloves. Also Warren Moon made it so it wasn't a white man position he made it so it was ok these guys can bomb it fifty plus down field not just RBs and WRs and it was guys like Wilson that made it ok we can have a TE block, but also go 20 yards down field. A lot of this was coaches seeing hey this guy can play at this position well.
Vick had an absolute cannon for an arm. He effortlessly throws the ball 50 plus yards.
My senior year was Vick's redshirt year. I lived next door to 3 football players and used to hear about this freshman who was absolutely destroying our first team defense in practice and scrimmages. We were a top 5 in the country defense at the time. People forget just how good of a passer he was in college, he had some accuracy issues in the NFL but not while at Tech.
Great story thanks for sharing.
My senior year was also his freshman year, and I can remember asking one of the football players if this new QB was any good. I wonder what the coaches thought when they saw how good he was before he actually started playing. I had to renounce my Vick fandom though, once I heard about all the horrible things he did to those helpless dogs. Greatest talent ever to play the game of football, he is lucky no one actually saw the crimes he commited to those poor animals though.
That’s great, I could totally imagine that!!
Always drive me crazy hearing people say “he’s just a runner.” He could effortlessly sling the ball and had two really good receivers. I also used to think if I was coaching defense, and Vick ran the option, ignore the runner and go after Vick. The running back might get 20 yards but Vick will most likely score lol.
You’re absolutely right though, he was a great passer in college. Most exciting college player I’ve ever watched in my 52 years. I’d have to put Johnny Football second.
Vick is def up there but Peter Warrick was the most electrifying college fball player ever!!!
Vick was unprecedented at the QB position.
You know what?? When someone apologizes, you can genuinely recognize if they mean it or not. Michael Vick, Ray Lewis, and Michael Phelps are GREAT examples of this! These are guys who made careless mistakes, but so what?? They realized that they had to become better men for themselves, their families, and they also realized that (whether they like it or not) they're role models! If you ask me, it's one thing to say "I made a mistake" and then turn around and make the same dumb mistakes over and over and over again, but it's another thing to say it, actually grow up and learn from it, and not let it happen again. These gentlemen are awesome examples of turning tragedy into triumph.
Keep up the great work, Mr. Vick!!
Bobby Mason well said!
You can make the argument that neither Ray Lewis nor Michael Phelps did anything wrong
@@sterlingwilliams8645for sure. Especially Phelps. Dude was just tryna chill lol
He ALMOST beat FSU single-handedly for 3 quarters in the championship game but came up short in the 4th. Superman wore Michael Vick PJs. LOL
I was feeling like the only 1 who thought that. That man was definitely Blessed with amazing talent.
i will never forget that game. florida state was supposed to win by 20+ in a massive blowout, and vick had them right in the game very late into the 3rd quarter and he finally ran outta gas in the 4th, and FSU finally pulled away.
Was there and it was just something special that man had. Ridiculous speed, insane balance and vision. People who say he had no arm strength and was not a precision passer have never seen him live. He had it all may never see it again
Vick was so fun to watch that year
7:56 blew my mind! Wow!
Yo wtf
😂😂yo wtf. No way that's not edited in
#87 be blessed
😂😂😂😂
A god playing the QB position. Most talented QB of all time.
Tell 'em.
Might be my favorite football player of all time. No one was as much fun to watch for me.
Agree..smooth as silk
I think Kyler has the potential to surpass him as far as most talented
Also literally a devil playing the QB position 😂
Michael Vick is the best dual threat quaterback ever!!! Let's go Hokies!!! I ❤ VT!!! I love Virginia Tech football!!! As a Georgia Bulldogs fan, I have mad respect for the Virginia Tech hokies and I also have mad respect for my boy Michael Vick!!! I love Michael Vick!!! Let's go Hokies!!! I ❤ VT football!!!
Thanks for the love from a Hokie, y’all might get the Natty this season. Good luck rest of the season
We all love people if they can run fast or throw a football far, not a good reason to love someone. We should love them for their character which he didnt have.
Lamar Jackson 🤷🏾♂️
Vick to Andre Davis was a deadly combo. I wish Davis had more success in the NFL.
once in a lifetime will you see this
This Man Mike Vick... Is The Wolverine Of The Quarter Back Position... Titanium Passes... With A Ferocious.... Vision To Run The 🏈 Ball....
1:20 lol ppl don’t understand how different this man was at football! Lol
Vick was amazing man!!!!!!!!!!!! Unreal the best, the smoothest, he had a tank's main gun for an arm.
Vick was amazing
1:23 ..... idc who you are QB's shouldn't have been able to pull that off at that time yet he did it with perfection, absolutely perfect
Sooo underrated as a thrower
Yeah and his throwing motion was fuckin beautiful as a lefty
Perfect throwing motion and a cannon for a arm, accurate as well
@@blxbrg2169 my guy ! 💯
What a wonderful video of Mikes 2000 season. I did a search for it and found yours. I went crazy that year following VT. BTW Andre Davis and that Defense were a "BEAST".
Put Va Tech football in the national spotlight
Michael Vick had the quickest 1st step of any quarterback. His time in Atlanta before the arrest were fun time to have season tickets
incredible! lots of time put in.
PockyCandy Thanx for this compilation! I was just watching Virginia vs Virginia Tech 2017, and only wish Tech had a QB like Vick! He was a lone threat on wheels, with eyes and a gun!
The greatest college player ever
Young Rain bo and Barry too
Michael Elston Tim Tebow isn’t top 10
Michael Elston Tebow is a failure
Not even close.
nalim lattarai not in college...
Thank you Michael
Fav player ever
This is literally my favorite channel. Good work!!!
Thanks for the compliment my good sir! This just so happens to be my favorite channel as well!
He was the most physically gifted QB to ever play the game. His own immaturity is the only thing that kept him from being the GOAT
This channel is pure awesomeness!!
I'm so very thankful and blessed for you making this video..
Well, thank you for enjoying this video!
Thank you
Vick was just different. He changed the game of college football
He was a cheetah with a cannon
thank you
You're welcome!
Imagine if Vick put in the work early instead of just leaning on talent......he would of been invincible
Looking all over for this
19:41-19:50 is plain right unfair. A QB isn't supposed to that, in that situation. Let alone, against an athletically supreme talented defensive team, like The U.
He was hurt that game too.
No one could stop Vick. Period.
Legendary Hokie
For anyone who played Pop Warner-watching Vick reminds me of that one guy who went through puberty before everyone else in the league so that he’s so much more explosive that it just seems unfair. Amazing player.
2000 looking like 1983
Come On Tech. I Need This Shit Again. Get It On. You Gotta Win One For Coach. 😢❤️Tech.
Yo I thought the nfl was going to have to change the rules because of michael Vick man....
The Falcons fukdup his career he had no offensive line and no wrs
Also the fact that he didn't prepare like the great qbs until he got to Philly
I'm pretty sure 2 years for dogfighting fucked his career.
imagine if Vick had been allowed to play in the NFL with the same offense that has been built around Lamar Jackson...the Ravens would have never lost a game.
Vick is def up there but Peter Warrick was the most electrifying college fball player ever!!!
man i love vick bro , #757
He changed the game and paved the way for many of today’s mobile quarterbacks
Vick literally got a expressway built to Blacksburg
I Love this video..............
He earned the name Superman, a canon of an arm and the agility of a top running back.
Vick had a cannon he forever a falcon it’s still 7 Vick jerseys in the building 24 years later is crazy
Headphones on, volume up @7:57 mark. Wow
Number 87 has a what???...😳😳😳
87 hung bro
Him and Ronald Curry were freak athletes....
They play in the same division in high school ... Curry at Hampton High School in Hampton Virginia.... Vick at Warwick High in Newport News Va. Curry won 3 stright Virginia state championships.... Vick never beat Curry in highschool..... Curry was then and still is the best quarterback recruit to ever come out VA..... that same region also produced Aaron Brooks.... Tyrod Taylor.... EJ Emmanuel...... Southeast Virginia is the home of the black quarterback...... that region also produced Lawrence Taylor... Bruce Smith ...Plaxico Burress ...DeAngelo Hall ...Kam Chancellor..... Percy Harvin... and many many more
We saw what happened to Curry
Doesnt matter what league hes in, your always just waiting to see him doe something interesting
Superman.
A flip in full equipment. Insane.
i love to watch mv play
Could you do a Colt Brennan one? 👀👀
There's a good recent ESPN documentary on Vick.... he explains how he just get's in the zone and things slow down when he's snapping the ball or running.
Pocky Candy--you're incredible, thank you!
Cool!!
The ball just pops off his hands....
1:25 scared the hell outta me lol
Yeah, me too. I thought that he had torn something after that play.
its crazy to think that vick said he never really trained, did work outs, studied film or the playbooks, and he did what he did. he basically has said that everything we saw him do was purely off natural talent and ability, and he really never put in the type of work a professional athlete usually has to put in to be able to compete with their peers. wonder what he woulda did if he had the mindset of someone like kobe who was known for his legendary workout and training.
He would have been one of the greatest alltime
Do Jamarcus Russell lsu
This is why he was the 1st African American to be drafted #1 overall in the NFL
#Greatness
King James Actually, Ernie Davis RB was the first African American to be drafted #1 overall to the NFL in ‘62 (to the Redskins whom they traded to the Browns) from Syracuse (incidentally, he was also the 1st AA to be awarded the Heisman trophy). Tragically, Davis never played a down in the NFL as he was diagnosed & died of leukemia in ‘63. In fact, Vick wasn’t even the 1st AA Hokie to be drafted #1 overall. That was Bruce Smith DE in ‘85 (to the Bills).
@@abankse83 I'm thinking he means first African American QB taken first overall
Ed Reed with the tackle so ole school 19:35 in.
Vick was one of the most explosive QB to ever play the game
what style of offense did he run?
who els id still watchimg this in 2021
Still watching this in 2022, hahahaha
Michael Vick if hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard were a person
Ain't nothing like Brent Musburger. Calling some Hokie / Vick games.
A little respect for Andre Davis..beast
Do Kevin Faulk...LSU
The Good Oooold Days.
Do Robert griffin iii
I don’t care what the Vick haters say, the man had a pinpoint rocket launcher for a arm!!! Let’s give huge respect for Andre Davis as well. Man could catch anything near him!!!! It’s a great time to be a Hokie!!!!
Looks just like Madden '04
Go VT! Best team in college football
I got a special request homie........if you have the footage and the time.....could you make a Peter Warrick video?
I'll look around and see what I can find.
I’m a Hokie but I would love to see a Warrick highlight video. Dude was amazing
what happened in the last game? did vicks team win?
johnlee813 Sadly the final score of the game was FSU 46 - VT 29. Tech was down 28-7 going into halftime & to start the 2nd half. They managed to come back & pull ahead 29-28 in the 3rd qtr & to start the 4th. Unfortunately, Weinke (FSU QB) threw a few TD bombs to regain & stretch the lead.
@@abankse83 Special teams also killed us late (Peter Warrick took a punt in for 6 as I recall).
made it look smooth and easy then fast IT was his game.
Dude's arms and legs just worked different. That's what athleticism is anyway.
FROM..
LORD JOSEPH..
Vick said going to prison was the best thing for him, because he found Christ inside those walls. Vick will always be my favorite
That's right! Nobody gave him credit for his arm and the prettiest left hand release. Hmm, I wonder why...
U want to see how good he was go watch the national title game against Florida st
Could you make a colt Brennan
kwc10231 this guy knows
The fucked up thing he won't get into the hall of fame because of u know what, he changed the AN position that's y he's a hall of famer imagine if he gave a fuck a first, it will be Vick vs brady,Rogers, brees, manning, with Russel, Cam, Dak, Mariota, ready to take the keys ,
What, you mean the eloctrocuting, hanging and torturing mans best friend for years and years. And also he stats and winning in the NFL are neither HOF caliber. Coming from a former Vick fan
wut bout the other lefty played for the state of virginia... pat white. btw... i enjoyed every minute of this video. #1randall cunningham #2mike vick of my all time greats. good work on this video😎
Imagine being a fan of Pat white yet not even knowing what state he played in
1:21 wow
Ok, so Mike Vick and all, but can we go ahead and give Mr. Andre Davis his flowers!!
Absolutely!!!! Andre caught anything close to him. Made Mike Vick a better player. Check out the video of him scoring 3 touchdown in three different ways
Do randy moss
With a flat tire yo. Still pulling away yo.
I was at the VT WVU game when vick scampered up the sidelines. They called 4 late hit penalties on WVU that game on Vick and they were all terrible calls
7:56 LMAO
Just imagine if he would have been more of a student of the game.
We might not never see a quarter back with the same blend of skills 4.1 speed can throw 80yards and improvise any given moment um surreal some come close but not like Vick make u hold your breath 😉 🤔
