"He reminds me of a little bit of Xavier Adibi," said Foster
Please let this comparison come to fruition. Maybe I'm just a youngin', but he was definitely my favorite VT linebacker.

# | Evans seems to be getting more First Team Reps: Notes from the 4/5/16 Practice Any specific skill you need for your OT's to make this happen? Any of our 4 (or is it 5?) OT's best suited for this?
yep, in the past we only got limited highlights on Youtube.
BUT- there were always 2-3 open to the public scrimmages. There is none of that this year. Bud debuted the Nickel Bear front look that he used vs Ohio State in the scrimmage before the spring game in 2014. I wrote about the use of a pressure front, but the revelation was minimal because being there in person makes it very tough to confirm alignment pre-snap (especially with a sideline view.) That is why I think the lack of public scrimmages is a bit silly. I can defend the spring game not being televised much more because they don't want the O being on film AND they want a full Lane for a big recruiting weekend.
Nope, normally if the end crashed inside, he would drive the end inside (and the linebacker would become the option man. In this case, they invite the end to crash unblocked, and then the linebacker has to take on the veer release OT on the back side. As we saw with Motu last year, 1 blocker + a good running QB vs 1 LB is a losing battle for the D.
I cover more of it in the film series Joe will run after spring practice. Fuente made JJ Watt look SILLY with this little scheme twist in the Rose Bowl when he was at TCU.
I have met those "coaches."
I thought Emelogu was a good player who would have been a really good fit with Buzz. Similar to Ahmed Hill (although I don't think Emelogu will ever be the shooter Hill will be)
I miss my stunt double days.

# | Experience Standing Out to Fuente, Devin Wilson Trying His Hand at Wide Receiver Can you explain? I've ventured into the AGR basement a few times (haven't we all?), but that's about the extent of my knowledge.
Ben Emelogu, freshmen team captain in 13-14. I can remember thinking 'this must be rock bottom', when he and JVZ were James Johnson's choice to go to ACC media days.
Did Wood and Barksdale call it quits during Buzz's tenure? Or was that the tail end of Weaver and JJ?
Not really any game changers there other than Adam Smith. That's a change from previous years when if you transferred from VT you turned into an all-star, especially around tournament time.
this is true. we routinely
benefitted from upperclassmen at
Mike for years. Moto did show flashes and big play ability, we just need him to get the consistency.
run up the middle 1 yard, run up the middle 1/2 yard, quick screen repeat.

Slowpoke has evolved to be used to refer to anyone who has missed the boat, and who talks about anything that has become history or old hat.

# | Experience Standing Out to Fuente, Devin Wilson Trying His Hand at Wide Receiver Lol! You are right about the AGR thing! I like pelts lets work with that!
You know, this remark almost struck me as Saban-esque. Never settle. Never be fully happy. I've seen Saban smile when he's been handed NC trophies, and yet he's back in the office the next day getting back to work. Without the whole "sold his soul to the devil" thing, this is really a refreshing mentality. Top football coaches never seem to rest.

# | Sleeker Settle Making Noise on a Deep Defensive Line, Tremaine Edmunds Set for Breakout Year That picture is of a slowpoke. He was calling you a slowpoke.

BLACKSBURG โ A familiar face will be returning to the Hokies as a graduate assistant.
Former Virginia Tech linebacker and NFL safety Cody Grimm will join the staff as a GA starting this summer.
Stop trying to stop the hype train.

Seriously, though, it feels like things are moving much more quickly to me this year. Or maybe its just a function of the length of each snapchat video.
