Haha, it's all good. I'm just messing with you on the smart ass comment. Glad to see other people that love to fish as much as I do. Feel free to fill me in on any tips and tricks you have on the New River. I've caught a lot of fish on live bait but I'm just mediocre without it. I found a lot of really big bass this past trip but they were on spawn beds and I couldn't get them to bite anything I threw at them.

Yeah, I guess I deserved that. Reason I included it was in your answer. You obviously aren't a novice, but many are. I was really trying not to offend, I really wasn't trying to be a smart ass, but I guess I failed. I can be much more of a smart ass than that, though.

Yeah I seem to recall Macho nailing some poor WR on another screen at some point in that game. I found an image claiming to be that hit. Nasty stuff:

That might be the one I'm thinking of actually. Things run together in my memory now. I remember it was a vicious hit, sent the poor kid into orbit.

It certainly can't hurt. It fits nicely into a narrative about VT. We've had a history of unheralded guys and walk-ons, now we're giving a basketball player (albeit one with football experience) a chance to play. It rolls into a theme of, "at VT, you're given an opportunity to succeed, no matter your pedigree. You're given a chance, and you can earn your success."

Much enjoyed.
Great to see Ben Taylor get his due. I watched that Temple game with my dad and he was shaking his head at the licks Taylor was giving.
Cornell Brown's legs must be oaks...you can see the leg drive on his hits.
And Moore had Dadi's speed, but had that knack of taking the right angle...what a player.

Honorable mention candidate: George 'snot bubbles' Delricco.

Man, people gave him so much crap for the losses and poor offensive performances at the time, but I really miss that guy. He was basically our entire offense. Once he got moving it was like trying to tackle a freight train. It would have been awesome to see what Coach Fu could do with him for four years. All the talent in the world.

In the other angle of that hit, you see where the Clemson player's leg whip upward from the hit and catch Flowers right between the legs, hence why he starts to celebrate and then decides to lay down for a sec. I still think the WR got it worse.

That Flowers hit on the Clemson WR screen was one I was waiting for when I saw he was on the list. Agree with everyone else, Logandozer should have been on here for a few hits he laid on folks
