Eleven Hokies made Phil Steele's Preseason All-ACC teams. I am a bit surprised Logan is his second team quarterback. Based on last season, and more than anything the offensive systems they play in, I would've thought Renner would be second team, Logan third. I consider James Gayle to be among the elite defensive ends in the ACC, but Jeremiah Attaochu and Kareem Martin are also great players. In Foster's system, stud end doesn't get as many opportunities to put up gaudy statistics. Regardless of the numbers, I think a slimmer Gayle will have his best season as a Hokie in 2013. Jack Tyler making Steele's first team is a testament to his work ethic and aggressive play, and the coaching staff's evaluation and player development.

What do you all think?
