I'm going to go with the Steelers, The Vikings and the Packers and way out on a limb the Chiefs.
Geez, who are you people and what is it that you are doing?
You guys have no idea how Torrian acts. Having first hand witnessed some of his actions I could never see him working as a Defensive Co. He has no emotional control during games. He would acts like a freaking lunatic in the pressbox not even the sidelines. After one game the coaches in the press box came down talking about how he was jumping screaming and then at the end of the game crying.
Don't get me wrong, Bud is an emotional dude when he is coaching, but there is a big difference between the way Bud acts and the way Gray acted while I was there.
Also, one of former coworkers at Tech was telling me that Gray has been in some hot water for inviting recruits he wasn't supposed to to campus or something to that extent.
He could have certainly matured since my time there, but the things I saw I don't know if that would work.
It was a tough year for him, but he still came out with 530 yards and 6 TDs, and was the leading receiver against Duke. The miss thrown balls would have added to that total. If he can polish his game with the drops and physicality, he'll be a guaranteed first or second rounder next year.
No, scouts are wrong a lot about how good theyll be once a kid is drafted into the league. They're usually pretty accurate projecting where they'll actually be drafted at
Sounds to me like he was at a party and a blonde, brunette and red head were all throwing themselves on him and he had to choose which one to take home.
he would have to get accepted to and enrolled in classes at BC in a week or he would not be able to go until summer. being a part of spring workouts was important to him, IIRC. I wouldn't worry too much about this.
Just saying, he could have and should have done better. Once a Hokie, always a Hokie, right?
Are we really upset that our annual rival has hired what a lot of Hokies feel is a sub par OC?
OK. I agree that moaning about officiating isn't productive. Hard not to, when you see what you perceive as injustice, but you are right. Makes you seem like a whiner. However, we haven't hit a ref since football season, and I think that teams and coaches cycle in and out and refs have no excuse to hold anydamnthing against us for any damn reason that hasn't occurred this season. Yes, we need to prove ourselves, but we should not have to beat more than the five players we face on the court. Nobody should have to prove themselves worthy of a foul call.
He's not a possession receiver and Tech didn't need him to be. Tech needed him to blow the roof off of secondaries.
That doesn't sound like something NFL scouts want to hear from somebody expecting to be a top round tight end talent.
Scot Loeffler is the 36 year old lefty reliever who keeps getting jobs despite his past results.
Shit didn't realize it was paywalled. It basically said he is concerned about coaching stability but he will consider Tech based on whom they hire and retain
I don't like it for Loeffler. He needs to be in the NFL where he can work with the same players for years and years to get everyone on the same page. His offense is to complex for college. So unless he pares it way down and guts nearly 75% of the scheme and focuses on establishing something simple that works, they will struggle badly.
Remember when Jon Scheyer walked like 10 different times several years ago and ended up calling a foul when we should have gotten the ball back with a chance to win?
I honestly don't get annoyed by Duke and UNC getting the calls anymore, because I've accepted the pathetic reality that they will get them and nothing is going to stop that unfortunately. I have seen it too many times against Tech and other ACC teams over the years.
Really a paywall article?
They can't make enough zelda games. I still play the original, ocarina, and majora's mask on a collector's edition GameCube game.
Not happening. He is enrolling early. Find it hard to believe that he'd change his mind at this point when he is probably moving in, in a couple of days, especially to follow him to BC.
Really? Because I read that when Frank announced his retirement he took VT down a peg on his board.
Good teams and good coaches don't complain about the officiating or anything out of their control... But I'm neither, so here we go.
THAT WAS BULLSHIT. Yes, every ACC team has home court advantage, but Carolina and Duke have borderline cheating. Today the Cameron indoor refs crossed that line. From the beginning they called a foul every time Duke possessed the ball inside the arc. In less than 1:30 Hudson (on Allen) had two fouls and the team had 3. That set the tone for the entire half. Every time we got a couple of stops and easy baskets, the refs would come to the rescue with some ticky-tack reach in or blocking foul that only gets called in places like Cameron.
Are the refs the only reason we lost? Hell no. Did they take away any chances at a comeback and make it impossible to win? Damn right they did. Can only brush it off as classic Coach K, and the privileges of having a great program like that, but still... If that games at a neutral court it's within 10 or 15, if it's in Cassel we probably win.
Duke is a better team than us, but not 24 points better. Evidence to all this is the second half, which we won by 3 when the refs started calling it fairly.
good for him, but hate that its a team we play every year and he knows some of our weaknesses
When last I posted, they were still just icons. But when I just looked, I saw beautiful pictures of nice fish. Don't know if you fixed it or the ethernetosphere just cosmically decided to enhance things, but they are loud and clear now. Nice.
Edit: And as soon as I posted, they were gone again to iconry. Probably bad on my end, but at least I did get to see them.
double-edged sword here i don't want to lose recruits to ga, but i want lil beamer to do well and come back one day when the time is right
So true. This team has heart. Saw it in the 2nd half of the Iowa St. game as well.
