I believe I saw only 1 false start by our guys.

1 false start, 1 holding penalty. A second holding penalty was called on Malleck during a punt attempt but that isn't on the OL.

Procedurally, the line is light-years ahead of where they were last year. I know nnot everyone is sold on Searels', but in the early going, he's proved himself one hell of a coach. Even if he likes to give the writing staff here aneurisms by the way he reps his players in practice.

I said this during the off-season, but I thought Uva with Johns under center has what it takes to surprise quite a few folks.

They kept things interesting with UCLA for a bit and now this. Better keep an eye on these Wahoos...

But the deflated sad Cavs fan pic does please me.

Agree, 100%. He went through all of his progressions multiple times later in the game. Definitely stared them down the first 2-3 drives.

The first good progression I noticed he threw a swing pass to McMillian that went incomplete, but then on a later series they ran the same play and he made a great pass to McMilllian for a good gain.

To further what Joe said above...

According to the Association of American Medical Colleges, the median four-year cost of medical school (including expenses and books) was $278,455 for private schools, and $207,866 for public schools in 2013.

Minimum NFL salary for an active NFL player is $420,000. Minimum salary for a player on the scout team is $5,200 per week ($88,400).

I don't know how many classes he has left to finish his undergrad, or his parents financial situation, but assuming he's getting close to graduating, his parents don't have $200-300K laying around, and he still wants to be a doctor, I do think the NFL is his fastest, smartest route there (especially given his injury history).

If I remember correctly he wants to become a heart surgeon that is 12 years of training/schooling after college. He would also have to have taken MCATS and done well his junior year of college which take a lot of time to study for. I can't see him passing up getting his bachelors at least before he leaves.

Good to see OLine working cohesively. They and the RBs picked up blitz well. I believe I saw only 1 false start by our guys.
First half was tough to watch, but 2nd half more than made up for it. Glad Motley got his feet wet under manageable conditions. Lawson will be good, but needs this year to get up to college speed.
Proud of the way the guys bounced back, especially on a short week. Still much to work on, but we are moving forward.
OT, but did anyone see Brewer on sidelines? Any updates on when he can start rehab?

Go Hokies!

I didn't realize I wanted it, but it was good to see the Horse on a Treadmill again after they didn't play the Shout video last week (or at least I didn't see it if they did).
