Rivals 40 times are about as accurate as a Georgia Tech QB.
You know they'd all seen footage of the 3rd-and-31 he converted against FSU.
Wait so these guys have signed??
The Fifth Fuller must be beside himself right now
I seriously doubt Hodges will be in the NFL next season. No way he is any better than a 4th round pick this year, and his draft stock would only go up with more experience / development.
Last I checked, general perception doesn't matter - it's the selection committee's perception that does.
On top of that a 12-1 ECU team would certainly be ranked in the top 20 of the AP & coaches polls, and a win over a ranked opponent is certainly a quality win. (ranked 2015 AAC teams: Houston #18 @ 12-1, Navy #21 @ 10-2, Temple #24 @ 10-3).
Losing to the majority of P5 teams would probably knock us out of playoff contention too, just like what happened UNC when they lost to an SEC team. Any loss to a non-top 10 opponent would knock us out, and maybe even a top5 loss would too. So the argument that losing to ECU would somehow be more terrible doesn't really hold up. If we have a team worthy of making the playoffs, we'll demonstrate it by beating even a good ECU team so I don't see the problem here.
You put Julie the Cat in net, Bash Brothers as your defensive line & Guy Germaine, Adam Banks and Dwayne Robertson as your forwards/center...Charlie isn't even in the first line but half of the movies about him #weaksauce
EDIT: And if Bombay wasn't trying to bang Charlie's mom, he's probably not even team captain. (Admittedly, I stole this point from this article)
He has a way with words for sure. Wonder if he'll write a novel or ten after retiring from basketball.
I'm hoping that the Battle of Bristol goes over so well that Tennessee replaces ECU as our "out of conference rival"
Thank you for sharing! Coleman Collins is a talented and insightful writer. I need to read his articles more often. Reading his articles makes me just as proud that he has come from Virginia Tech as his contributions to our basketball program (if not more so). I still read his article about 4/16 on that day every year.
C'mon man, you can't be serious here.
There are endless stories of 'workout warriors' who blow everyone away at the combine but can't play for shit.
And plenty of guys who don't have the impressive stats who are excellent players.
Glad a VT alum is having success, but I don't go to ESPN to get my thoughts provoked. I'd prefer they just did the sports.
and yet you weren't...
4.6/40 isn't really "lightning quick" though... and his vertical isn't exactly jumping out of the roof (which is somewhat of a gauge of explosiveness)
Heck, by those stats, I should have been a 4 star recruit in high school...
I know you do.
Watch his tape and you'll know why. The kid can flat out ball and he is much quicker than that 4.6 listed.
This is just an oversensitive reaction to the "Notre Lame" label.
Because Fuente does his own evaluations. If he thinks the kid is good I have no reason not to believe him at this point. Plus, if he wants to play big boy college football, and we're his only P5 offer not named Iowa State or Indiana, then we're pretty much guaranteed the commit.
or his run in with Boba Fett on the Cloud City...
If that's her husband laughing, he's going to have a hard night.
Or not hard night...
My love for all things Harry Potter and for Fuente's recruiting efforts thus far have me smiling at this comment for totally different reasons.
That must have been after his knee injury....
And we don't have to wait until August for the QB competition.
Well we were all comparing him to Glennon, which makes almost anyone look mobile. I had to dig for a while, but I found a good gif of Glennon scampering out of trouble:
To be fair, we were also comparing Glennon to Tyrod, which made him look decidedly less mobile...
No, I just meant I didn't expect us to have that many out-of-state commits
