Obviously the cupboard is not bare, but theres two spots to me that are very concerning. And ones my position, linebacker.

Time to strap on a helmet, Bud.

There's always a lighthouse. There's always a man. There's always a city.

All Sam Rogers observations would be moot.

Thanks for the interview, Andy

And you know, Sean, I dont know if he had a bad experience here,

hahaha... awkward...

It really is amazing that the Glennon's are the only ones in this category. For UVA, the Thomas/Julius Jones defection hurt badly and the Mihota/Walker situations have happened recently. I'm sure there are more.

...in most cases for UVA it's neither or none of the above. GO HOKIES!

Hokie gospel right here:
(hard to exclude any of it for a quote) but these stood out for me:

"... weve had Terrell Edmunds sign with us, thats actually the 26th set of brothers, ..."

"...I think what it makes a statement about is the guy down at the end of the hall and how we treat people on a day-to-day basis."

"the kids play the way they play for you because of the relationships you develop, amongst the coaches and players. Thats the one thing Im proud of that weve been able to do: build that culture."

GO HOKIES!!!

'Experience' might be the primary determining factor for Hokie defensive effectiveness. Our most experienced Ds have been our best Ds. When we have to replace a lot of experienced seniors, our D effectiveness generally drops. For exceptions look to years like '06, when we replaced a lot of senior linemen with guys who had been rotating for two years so we didn't lose a step.

Reality has a mighty pimp hand.

It's all about THE DBU!
