Virginia Tech calls on Matt Moore to lead offensive line

BLACKSBURG, Va. – Virginia Tech football coach Brent Pry has announced the addition of Matt Moore as offensive line coach. With a career that has spanned nearly three decades with stops at West Virginia, Troy, Louisiana Tech, Middle Tennessee State and Texas Tech --the Hokies appear to be in good hands in the trenches.

“I am thrilled to add Matt Moore to our staff,” said Virginia Tech Head Coach Brent Pry. “He brings extensive experience coaching offensive lines at the Power Four level. His proven ability to develop strong, tough offensive line units that play with exceptional physicality will be a tremendous asset to our program. His leadership and expertise align perfectly with our vision for Virginia Tech football.”

Moore was a Broyles Award nominee in 2023 for the top assistant coach in the country.

Moore spent the past six seasons at West Virginia (2019-24) as the offensive line coach and has served as assistant head coach since 2020. While in Morgantown, Moore tutored offensive tackle Wyatt Milum, a 2024 consensus All-American, along with offensive tackle Zach Frazier, a two-time All-American (2021 & 2023) and Colton McKivitz who earned 2019 All-American honors.

During the 2024 season, the Mountaineers were seventh in the FBS in rushing yards per game (206.0), ranking third among the Power Four. The West Virginia line allowed just 13 sacks on the season. The Mountaineers tallied 88 rushed of 10-plus yards, ranking in the top-10 nationally.

In 2023, WVU’s offensive line helped the Mountaineer offense lead power conference teams in rushing yards (2,976). In Big 12 games, WVU was the only school to finish with more than 2,000 rushing yards (2,211). The Mountaineers also led the league in rushing yards per game (245.7).
