he did move down to nc with his dad for a while and it was talked about him going to school in nc. i think he may have actually finished his junior year in nc and believe he is playing at bishop sullivan for his sr year now.

Yeah my understanding was that his Russian club had offered another one year, essentially $6mil deal. So $750K is quite a payout. Flipside is that if he can opt out of year two and has a good season this year he could rate a big contract that covers what he walked away from considering the funny money the NBA is throwing around. Heard next year's max deals will reach possibly the $37mil per season mark.

From what I heard, once he decided to transfer to Bishop Sullivan he saw no reason to stay at Ocean Lakes for another semester. I believe he went to Shelby in the spring to be with his dad, but will still be at Bishop Sullivan senior year.

Hmm I don't know where I got Shelby from. Some reason I thought I remembered hearing he was moving there. Thanks and +1.

Ok, lock was strong phrase for Tolliver. I'll give you that one.

10 total Official Coaches on staff. http://www.hokiesports.com/football/coaches/
3 holdovers: Foster, Burden, Wiles
7 new coaches.

7/10 turned over = 70% staff new.
Grade school Math.

I don't claim to know everything about FB recruiting, but the methods for basketball staffs aren't at all that different other than fewer staff members going after the players.

I never brought up your background. I just pointed out you how wrong you were about several things.

Tolliver was never a VT lock and we didn't have 70-75% coaching staff turnover.

Have a great weekend!

No, I meant head or position coach offers from div 1 programs. We already know that (by comparison) former Coach Gray blows Wiles off the planet in terms of players in the NFL, as well as All-Americans and All-Conference.

What about players like Maddy? Little to no D-1 interest, came because of a relationship Wiles built with a High School Coach, multiple all conference nod, but not in the NFL? If you put "all conference recognition" instead of "NFL players" you would get a statistically larger sample, which could take into account recruiting to a system (if he actually does), and I would say it has bearing.
