After picking basketball and a scholarship to Virginia Tech, where he played point guard the past two seasons, it appeared Thorns’ days on the gridiron were over.

Thorns, who set a Virginia Tech record for assists as a freshman with 113 and started 15 games for the Hokies in two years, informed coaches Monday of his plans to transfer. And those plans may include playing football.
