Love Peoples. Not seeing him on the depth chart was concerning though. Hopefully thats a formation thing.

I believe it means we can assume he will be playing on special teams regardless of any formation he may be involved in on offense.

He's no good to me dead.

So I guess you could say that this is now "The Peoples' Number"?

Until I see him play and see otherwise, I must assume that Martin Scales, Jerome Wright, and now Steven Peoples are all just the same person trying to enjoy college football and VT for as long as possible.

Oh gosh, I remember the Scales era of running backs, those were dark times. I believe his number was 25 actually.

Played church league softball for a couple seasons with Martin, he's a cool guy. TONS of laughs and a great guy to be around.

I'm gonna guess Maroon-White-Maroon

I'm like 99% sure White Jersey. Guessing on helmet and pants.

Onward and upward

Fuente's tweet announcing the 25 has a maroon jersey with Peoples' name on it.

liberty's jerseys are

HOME -> Red
AWAY-> White

so maybe just maybe it would be all maroon for week 1 unless we throw on white pants?

welp. I guess looking at that tweet with the white jersey was misleading then

Onward and upward

bluehokie2006's picture bluehokie2006 | 9 years 10 months # ^

Since they haven't announced anything special, probably the "standard" mroon helmet and jersey with white pants.

I hope they announce this over loudspeaker at the game. Would be cool to recognize the particular player each home game. Peoples champion!
