Virginia Tech’s James Franklin had a viral Zoom moment when he repeatedly called reporter Michael Howes by his first name — even after Howes introduced himself as “Coach.” The awkward pause? A glitch: Howes couldn’t see Franklin and thought the audio had cut out. Franklin, ever the connector, just wanted to make sure he was talking to the right person. While Franklin’s recruiting prowess and winning record keep fans focused on the field, this human stumble highlights how virtual pressers can turn small tech hiccups into big moments — especially when everyone’s watching. And hey, Virginia Tech’s on fire offensively, sitting at 2-0 with 117 points scored, and favored to beat Maryland next.
