Look again-- there are only 10, which is why Exum & Hosley are confused on how to match-up. It might be easier to look at the clip starting at 3:51. You'll see a left CB (9 - Hill), an edge rusher standing on the left end (95 - McCray), 3 down linemen (98 - D Hopkins, 92 - Maddy, 66 - Wilson), an edge rusher standing on the right end (17 - Fuller), a MLB (58 - Tyler), and a deep safety (15 - Whitley). That's 8 players. When the play starts and pans right, you'll see 2 more players (1 - Exum & 20 - Hosley) closer to the right sideline, which makes 10 total.

You gotta give credit where credit is due though. The guys world cup record is fantastic and bob bradley left the cupboard pretty bare beyond that golden crop thats starting to phase out. I really do think our youth development has made great strides which was klinnsmans primary goal

I mean shoot look at some of the under 21 studs we have between yedlin, pulisic, matt miazga, zelalem, and I havent totally given up on green. We have a decent crop coming through. Now we need a keeper for after guzan

Based on some of the player's tweets coming out...no thanks.

So, LOLUVa football has a pier. We can't say we have a pier. I guess that makes us peerless when it comes to Virgina collegiate football.

Potential. Sadly I don't have much belief in Klinsmann to utilize it properly. We shall see.

theres a quote in one of the books by old nan and i cant seem to find it at this point but its something like

EDIT: Found it

Sometimes Nan would talk to him as if he were her Brandon, the baby she had nursed all those years ago, and sometimes she confused him with his uncle Brandon, who was killed by the Mad King before Bran was even born. She had lived so long, Mother had told him once, that all the Brandon Starks had become one person in her head.

which to me indicates that there are some distinct similarities between all of them and that its either our Bran reborn multiple times or he's at least giving them directions through time on what to do in order to keep the white walkers at bay (build the wall and winterfell...I have a strong feeling the final battle will be in winterfell)

Everybody seems to have alternative uniforms now. I doubt their is a quantifiable advantage to any particular uniform. I personally think it's fun for one or two big games a year. Otherwise, I like to see brand recognition. During the draft this year, I watched a highlight of an ACC player that was playing the hokies and did not immediately recognize my own team. That's a problem in my opinion.

The "one equity conference opponent per year" was really a Weaver mantra. Starting in 2020, we are doing 2 per year, so I see it as a reasonable option to drop the 2018 ECU home game and either the 2017 or 2019 ECU away game for a home & home with a Power 5 team. As things currently stand, here are the number of Power 5 OOC opponents we are currently scheduled to play each season:

2016: 2
2017: 1
2018: 1
2019: 1
2020: 2
2021: 3
2022: 1 (1 OOC opening in schedule - per Whit's comments this will likely be a neutral site vs P5 team)
2023: 2
2024: 2
2025: 2

UVA also did home & home with USC. And then looking at SEC home & homes, we obviously did one with LSU and Duke did one more recently with Alabama. It's possible to get done.

So Briles was sacrificed. But the AD and th president stay employed.

Yes! Get those kids up to Blacksburg!
