Nice! #
Nice job guys! I tell you I think Davon Morgan may make an impact in Rex Ryan's defense in NY. He's got the speed to overtake Eric Smith or Brodney Poole as a blitz safety which Ryan's 3-4 requires. Really great to see Evans get a deal especially after the bad surprise at the draft.

Darren is the man! #
We hung out some this past summer. Real humble dude and overal great person. Helped me do promo for The Extra Point (note his twitter pic!!!!!!!!!!!!)
ALSO, just goes to show what our program can do with talent. We are sending guys like Andre Davis, a 2star high school recruit, to the NFL! What our coaches have done and continue to do is absolutely INCREDIBLE!
I wish these guys the best!
Go Hokies!

Don't forget #
Don't forget that Cody Grimm was a walk-on at Tech that went on to be an All-American, a local legend, and a starter for Tampa Bay during his rookie season.
What's Important Now

No kidding... #
No kidding about the management and coaching of talent. My example is Justin Harper...got no press coming out of high school or hargrave m.a. then tore it up his last two years at VT. Hopefully the Ravens can get him into the fold this year.
Though I love what we do with the talent we do get hopefully Shane and Cornell can continue this recruiting tear and bring in some four and five stars on a consistent basis. We've had really good moments with the two and three star guys (3 Big East, 4 ACC titles, NCG Appearance, 7 BCS/BCA games and the '09 Orange Bowl title) so imagine if the same coaching continues with the more skilled recruits coupled with the guys you know Frank and company will continue to bring in...could be a very good decade for Virginia Tech football!
