His father, Michael Boddie, who participated in track and football in high school, instilled his competitive spirit into his son when playing sports with him as a young boy. In fact, Vick says it was when he was just seven years old and throwing the football around with his father that he realized he had what it takes to be a champion.<br>Vick attended Ferguson High School in Newport News, Virginia, as a freshman. The following year, when Ferguson closed, he transferred to Warwick High and became a three-year starter. His high school numbers include 4,846 yards and 43 touchdowns in the air, and 1,048 yards and 18 touchdowns on the ground. Such results got him listed as the number-five quarterback choice in SuperPrep.<br>Vick was heavily recruited by Syracuse, but because he didn t favor Syracuse s option-oriented offense, Vick enrolled in Virginia Tech as a sociology major. His football coach at Warwick High, Tommy Reamon, was instrumental in getting Virginia Tech to promise to redshirt Vick his first year. Reamon believed that Vick wasn t ready for that level of responsibility. This turned out to be a tough agreement for Virginia Tech, as injuries to their top two quarterbacks forced them to move Nick Sorensen from free safety back to quarterback. Nevertheless, they upheld their bargain so Vick could develop confidence by practicing with the scout team. Virginia Tech athletic director Jim Weaver, who played at Penn State and later coached there, is excited about having Vick on the team. Johnson says that not only does his school s starting quarterback have the strongest arm he s ever seen, but noticed that he can consistently throw long with great accuracy.<br>Although you d think he d have some nervousness in his first game in Division I football, Vick didn t show any signs of it as he introduced himself to the college ranks by running for three touchdowns against James Madison University. In that regard, offensive coordinator Rickey Bustle says that one of Vick s greatest strengths is that he is levelheaded and doesn t let things get to him.<br>Virginia Tech s Mike Gentry, Assistant Athletic Director for Athletic Performance, is especially impressed with Vick s attitude.  The most special thing about Michael Vick is not his outstanding athletic ability but the fact that with all the hoopla surrounding him, he continues to work hard and does not invite special attention. He just wants to be one of the players. <br><br>Weighty Matters<br>When Vick came to VT he had some good numbers in the weightroom for a freshman quarterback. At 195 pounds, he had a 270 bench press, a 34-inch vertical jump, and ran a 4.42 forty (hand timed). Impressive results at any level. After the first year under Coach Gentry s direction, Vick added 50 pounds to his bench, four inches to his vertical, and dropped his forty time to 4.33. Those numbers have taken another a big jump in the off-season. Since coming to Virginia Tech, Vick has added 17 pounds of muscle, can bench 340, squat 515, power clean 280, push jerk 310, vertical jump 41 inches and run a 4.25 forty.<br>Although some strength coaches have a conservative weight training program for their skill players, especially starting quarterbacks such as Vick, Coach Gentry doesn t believe in drastically changing his trainin
