Must have a cannon for an arm, then.
They will move him to the D line. Oh wait! Those guys are gone.
Big bluefish are hitting well on the beaches of central Jersey. It sounds like the main body of rockfish are in the mouth of the Delaware Bay. I will defer to IamVTFish on the numbers of ocean fish that have moved into the Chesapeake.
Give him the ball on the goal line. Who's going to tackle that?
Suspiciously optimistic!
I know, right??!! 42 bowls!
I recall that Shai was higher pre-injury, but like in the 150-200 range, not top 100 like RW and DW.

I have no inside knowledge about Lawson. But I watched him a bit celebrating on the sideline after the UVA win. He did not look to me like a guy who is unhappy with VT or concerned only about his personal outcomes.
Same reason Leal left.
Or what marcb2 said. Either one.

No, the difference was that Ryan Williams and DW were not just 4 stars, but top 100 national players (RW was top 50). That's a big gap between them and borderline low end 4 star backs we have on our roster now. Even Shai was just barely in the top 250

# | TJ Jackson Follows Love of Football, Fondness of "Hitting People" to Virginia Tech I like hitting people

Fuente: Think you got a future in football?
Jackson: Heck no! I figured as long I'm going to be in school, I might as well hit some people while I'm at it.

# | QB Jerod Evans Sees Situation at Tech That's "Almost Too Good to be True," Picks the Hokies I believe he is expected to graduate before the next season begins...thus is potentially eligible to transfer and play without sitting out a season.

# | QB Jerod Evans Sees Situation at Tech That's "Almost Too Good to be True," Picks the Hokies "All" of the QBs? VTs not doing anything unusual. The QB room will have on scholarship:
1 r-Senior
1 Junior
1 r-Sophomore (maybe?)
1 Sophomore
1 Freshman
That's pretty much what any decent program should strive to have. That doesn't mean somebody isn't happy and might transfer, but that's not unusual either. The staff can't ignore continuity and worry that somebody who might not be the best QB on the roster at present might be unhappy.

# | QB Jerod Evans Sees Situation at Tech That's "Almost Too Good to be True," Picks the Hokies Yeah...it had been years since VT had signed a highly rated QB recruit.
Yeah I know it. I really dont think 4 stars are what they used to be though. I dont know if there are more 4 stars now than 10 years ago, but we did pretty good with 4 star backs till this crew. Mackenzie was a legit 4 star before his injuries.
Well there you have it...

# | TJ Jackson Follows Love of Football, Fondness of "Hitting People" to Virginia Tech Wow what a day for him, congrats. Gotta be a hell of a feeling to get that call to the office. Got some work to do but is definitely pretty quick for his size. With hard work, I dont see any reason why he wont get plenty of playing time during his career here.
I joined, then got sick on how many garbage bowls there are....
Wild Turkey Bulldozer
I hope that he catches a TD pass at some point in his career. Bring him as a TE on a goal line play and I bet he'd be wide open.
A welcome improvement lol

This might be some of the funniest high school film of a recruit I have ever seen. I mean he is blocking his guy back a good 15 yards on some of these run plays. If I was in HS and had to line up against him I would seriously consider telling the coach "No thanks".
