Wyatt Teller to start against Miami, Marshawn Williams Practiced Today

A couple of Sunday night news and notes.

Against Pitt, David Wang slid over to center and replaced Caleb Farris to make room on the line for Teller at left guard. That move seems to be permanent, for the time being.

Somewhere in the Outer Banks, French is dancing. Going back to when Teller was a defensive end recruit destined to sign with Virginia, French's been banging the drum that he had the body type and quick feet to be an NFL lineman. Unfortunately, Teller earning a starting job comes at the expense of senior Caleb Farris who has gutted it out for Tech over his career and this season.

Juice is optimistic he'll play against Miami. I'm not holding my breath until I see him in maroon and orange (hopefully #ALLMAROONEVERYTHING) Thursday night, but the news that he practiced today is encouraging.

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
โ€œI served in the United States Navy"
