Quick observations from VT Snapchat of Morning Workouts

Please note- it is difficult to see everything in these clips, so don't read too much into this report. It is primarily to benefit those folks who don't have snapchat. If you do, follow vtfootball.

Coach Fuente is using a shirt system to recognize players giving maximum effort in the 5:30AM conditioning work. Maroon shirt means you are doing well. It caught my attention that Cam Phillips was in a white shirt this morning. He is a guy that is going to be counted on to make a maximum contribution, so that was troubling. A couple of guys looked really fluid in bag and cone drills, particularly Terrell Edmunds (very quick and smooth coming in and out of cuts.) I saw him, Chuck Clark, and Adonis Alexander in Maroon jerseys.

Houshun Gaines looks the part of an ACC DE. He has filled out. Ekanem, Baron, Mihota and Gaines were three DL in Maroon. I did notice one other player in Maroon but I didn't recognize him and never got a good look at his shirt. Baron looked very quick and light in drills. I still think he could factor into the defensive end discussion with so much depth at defensive tackle. The camera guy loves filming Tim Settle. The big man was moving ok in drills, but I think they still want to get him around 20 pounds lighter.

Jonathan McLaughlin was also in maroon.

The kids are working their tails off, folks. THREE CLAPS AND A WOOOOOOOOOOOO.
