Why would Lawson transfer? He will likely start next year and seeing with what Fuente did with Dalton and Lynch you would think he would be pretty excited about the player Fuente could form him into.

Playing much better than last night, shooting free throws better.
Anybody else watching us give #2 wide open threes all game.
Why is it that Shane gets all the blame for not playing mcmillian early but doesn't get any credit for his progression? And, for all his talent running, he is still struggling to pick up pass protection, likely one of the reasons he didn't get that early season playing time.
Good to hear, didn't know that. Leg up.

# | BUZZKETBALL CENTRAL: Virginia Tech Hokies (3-2) vs UAB Blazers (3-2) 430PM CBS Sports Seth Allen is single-handedly killing this team. Gets tricked by a single fan with dummy shot clock attempt, over helps on the defense leaving the only UAB shooter open for a 3, gets beat by his man. Over and over again. His ability to drive and make layups is cancelled out by terrible shot choices and defense.
For a guy that has gotten close to no help from his o line for the most part ever since he got back from shoulder surgery, he has been quite the talent. 12 won't go down as an MV7, T Mobile or Bryan Randall type of fan fav due to how long he was here, but he's been one of my favorite Hokies. Tough as nails. He probably doesn't have much of a future going forth at QB, but I wouldn't be a bit surprised if he's an excellent coach down the road someday.
I just got home from the game. The stadium was at least 50% Hokies, probably more. The celebration between the players and fans at the end of the game was amazing. Hopefully someone got some good pics and video. I saw the players carry Beamer to midfield, did he get a Gatorade bath? Overall, just a wonderful day. Hokienation showed up in full force today. 12 in a row!!!

# | Reports: Hokies Set to Name Justin Fuente as Next Head Coach, Retain DC Bud Foster Lawson's high school coach is on staff, and one of the reasons Lawson came here was for immediate playing time. Doesn't seem like the type to sit out a year
Jugs is happy and all is right in the world!!!!
PS-> saw multiple hoos throwing up on the way out #rookies
I expect he will end up a QB coach somewhere. He's just not a good OC and never has been.
Thank you, Mike London for running that stupid fake punt
Great scene in Hooville today watching all the BooHoos cry for another year. They were really cocky this year but in the end they tucked their tales and took their medicine again. 12 & counting. Love you Frank, one more for CFB.

Adonis has two younger brothers. Not so fast, says Momma Alexander
I for one can't see Fuente keeping Shane on as RB coach. I'd say the whole offensive staff will be Fuente's guys and if Shane is retained he will be either ST coach or on Foster's defensive staff.
Not trying to make anything big out of this, but Lawson was recruited by Loeffler. I hope like heck Loeffler is out as OC by season's end, but I definitely would keep him on staff (not as OC) if it meant keeping Lawson from leaving.
NOW we can talk bowl games!

Excellent news, I hope it pans out

It seems Buzz has conceded only being able to defend either the lane or the perimeter. Since this team shoots 25% from behind the arc, he is giving them that shot. Shouldn't be that way but until these guys can play perimeter defense and collapse correctly inside with their man we should expect more of it. Allen is definitely costing us this game. Constantly out of position or loafing back after a bad offensive possession. Just not sure how long Buzz can keep this experiment going.
