Chuck Clark gets the #25 against Duke

I would've loved to see Joey Slye get it again, but maybe no repeats?

I would have loved to see Joey Legs get it again too...he won the Pitt game for us! I'm assuming you're right and they aren't doing any repeats, but that seems kinda silly to me. Congrats to Chuck though, not saying he doesn't deserve it at all and I'm glad to see him get to wear the 25!

If wearing the #25 means Chuck Clark is more excited than usual, and therefore hits harder than usual, the Duke training staff might as well fill a swimming pool with ice. Because they're going to have some sore bodies to tend.

According to that terrible commentary a few weeks back, Chuck Clark will knock the dog out of you. I still don't know what that means...

I found TKP after two rails from TOTS then walking back to my apartment and re-watching the 2012 Sugar Bowl. I woke up the next day with this username.

Maybe Chuck will single handedly top the number of interceptions uva had vs Duke

Chuck very well may kill a man on Saturday.

So this pretty much guarantees that Clark gets a pick 6, right?

Well, it did. Until this comment...

It worked for the Stroman punt return, didn't it?

(I think I remember someone predicted a kickoff or punt return going for a TD before the ECU game.)

Only if the pick-6 gets counted as part of Settle's stats.

Clark is going to single-handedly beat Duke, score all the points, leave the Duke fans incinerated simply by looking at him, and impregnate 25% of the Hokie women in attendance merely by proximity.

I guess my wife has a 1-4 chance Saturday. I better pack the candles and bubbly.

Gotta admit it's going to be pretty awkward for me...

Avoid high-fives during the team's arrival or after the game. Otherwise, it'll be triplets.

IDK if previous game performance is part of the consideration for the 25, I thought it was just from that player's performance/effort in that week's practice.

Edit: this was meant to be a reply for why J. Slye wasn't picked this week. I agree he was a beast last week for us.

A decade on TKP and it's been time well spent.

Clark tackled Henderson 3x on KO returns by himself. It was quite a showing.

The #25 is only going to be passed out 15 times this year, so I support no repeats to give more players a chance to represent

Any chance Bucky or Sam gets the 25 by the end of the season?

Sam will allow CJF to give it to him at some point.

Sam already wore it in like week 2 I thought. Maybe I'm wrong?

My guess is Sam gets it vs UVA

And then UVA really gets it. Like a kid that pissed off Eddie Murphy's and Chris Rock's parents at the same time.

Only if Bucky can catch a pass without falling down afterwards.

The only game I can think of where the #25 did NOT have positive/good juju, was the Cuse game because Slye (like the rest of the team) was off that day.
