Yes but we should look at the trend of four year seniors versus five year seniors and I guarantee you there are more NFL draft picks who are fourth year juniors/seniors than fifth year seniors because if you arent ready by the fourth year than the fifth year means nothing

I laugh because I posted a similar complaint a few weeks ago, and was told then that it was a bit of a sore topic on here. I feel your pain. But I also understand the need for revenue. For that, I will be contributing, but I have to get past October (Sorry Joe, but the bills have to get paid first.)

PS - I'm very proud of my (old) self. This was my 1st GIF!

Redshirting has benefited this program GREATLY over the years. During our best years, most of our best players had redshirted. There is exceptions, but our staff has handled it pretty well over the years. Guys like Royal and Tyrod and Boykin etc, that we needed to win games, played. Look at how Groh and London managed their redshirts for an example of what not to do.

The last few years we havent had a chance to redshirt as many players as we usually would because of lack of depth. I believe it has hurt us a bit, but we seem to be recovering. Deon Clark, JC Coleman and Donovan Riley come to mind as guys we probably would have redshirted in the past that are now seniors.

The players that Meyer and Strong at Ohio State and Texas bring in are different than what we bring in. Not really a knock on the players we get, but theirs are probably more ready to play. A higher percentage is for sure. So comparing them to us is not a good comparison.

The list of ACC players especially QB's in the CFL is impressive. Boyd, Harris Boone just to name a few.

Jake Anderson is a cool mofo. Whoever writes the summaries for the UVA hockey websites is a whiny little bitch.
