# | Fall Camp - behind the scenes video (Camp Tour segment updated with final guests) HokieVision day one highlights:
Adding a QB each class is standard. If he cant compete with younger guys than him then its on him. If hes worried about guys that haven't even arrived yet then he can't be our QB.
Edit: And no I don't believe the addition of QBs in '17 and '18 affected his decision. I think that decision was made by his current standing on the team, especially next to Jackson. If hes already behind Jackson, why would a '17 or '18 QB matter

# | Hokies Open Fall Camp, Giving Spring Holdouts Chance to Get Back to "Full Speed" News of the weights on the DL is good to hear. I think Hilgart is one of the best hires that was made. I've been saying for the past couple of years that I thought our S&C needed to be revamped. Excited for this year.

I am not sure that it ever was reported anywhere, but heard a ton of buzz (the type you can't write a column on because you aren't 100% sure) that Jackson had outperformed Lawson in the spring and Lawson needed a great summer to be ahead of him.

TURKEY LEG.
Ah, thanks.
According to the newspaper, a failed drug test and impending suspension was a factor. That softens the news in my opinion.

# | Hokies Open Fall Camp, Giving Spring Holdouts Chance to Get Back to "Full Speed" after going over the schedule thoroughly the other day, I was having a hard time coming up with 6 losses. I kept coming up with only 4 but I am probably being overly-optimistic
Funny because when I look at that same schedule I have a hard time coming up with more than 4 wins
No, I don't think so. It'll probably be in the present.
I have no idea about who his source is... I would guess it would have to be someone high up in athletics as Drug Testing information is kept on lock down.
You normally see this type of news after a kid transfers has been accepted into new school and both parties agree to release the information.
Josh Jackson passed Lawson on the depth chart? Where was that stated?
I thought her name was Brittany.

# | Hokies Open Fall Camp, Giving Spring Holdouts Chance to Get Back to "Full Speed" They also plan on beating these teams with a non-existent O-line.
Okay thank you for the input. So my theory is not likely. Interesting speculation...I thought Norm Wood was a reputable source.?
if he failed his second test recently then why would he be attending practice and weight sessions in the morning/night.
Possibility he could have been tested last night after practice but if so results would not be back this quickly, usually takes 48 hours+ to receive that stuff.
Every school has a way to handle drug issues, based on past VT "weed incidents"I would have to believe he would have been suspended indefinitely or put on probation at least. I have yet to see evidence that either of those happened.
I was just about to say that Lawson transferring is going to become the new Drew Harris arrival.
Book it. I'm game.
Here is how I look at it:
- Josh Jackson has been looking good. If Evans does well this year and next then he could be starting his 3rd year in the program, which is perfect.
- Fuente is getting some good prospects coming in
- Lawson never really got it going. Jackson may have passed him on the depth chart already.
- It frees up a scholarship.
Andy Bitter's article is more clear: "A source indicated that Lawson was expected to face a suspension of some length for failing a drug test."
so he may have recently failed it, and was going to be suspended, and chose to leave, probably with mutual input from Fuente & Co.
