Tyrod on the Bills, LT on the Dolphins? Hokies taking over the AFC East at QB.....except for that one guy who won last night, he's still doing pretty well for himself

We've had plenty Mike LBs over the years that weren't 5th year seniors that played far and away better than anything we've seen out of Moto... If it isn't clicking for him then why not give someone else a shot - especially since we have a FCS game this week, it seems like the perfect opportunity to do so

IF he puts up Heisman-like numbers for the next 10 games, we'll see.........

Too many people are complaining about a guy that has limited field experience because they want a 5 year senior playing and we just don't have that.

USU to lose but cover.
ND to curbstomp lolUVA by 4 TD's

MSU gets payback for last year
LSU, easy one there
Boise is better

I'm not saying he'd be the next starter, but if he has half of his brother's toughness and leadership, that can only be an asset to us. As much crap as he got from some of the fanbase, Hokie history should be very kind to Michael Brewer. Without him, I have no doubt that both the bowl streak and the decade(plus) of dominance would be over.

I note a plethora of Utah and religion-based options in this week's Six Pick and HELLO I'd like to share with you this book about Jesus Christ

I would too, but I'm not sure if he ends up in Blacksburg.

Here are the three schools he's listed as having an interest in:

SMU-The only school to offer him a scholarship so far, Michael played for Chad Morris in HS and I believe Lake Travis still runs his offense. Would also allow him to stay in state if Texas doesn't offer

Texas-Where his father and grandfather played, Michael probably would have ended up there instead of TT as well, but only had a grayshirt offer out of high school and was blocked from transfering there when he left TT.

VT-Michael is currently here, giving us a chance at Charlie. But I think we only have a shot at landing him if Loeffler is still the OC. If Frank retires before it's time for him to sign a loi and we bring in a different OC/QB coach then I don't think he's as interested in the program (Unless we somehow land Chad Morris as our next HC, in that case I think we're more likely to be able to land him). Also he's currently rated a lot lower than the QB recruits that Loeffler has been bringing in. Andrew Ford was his lowest 247 composite at 0.8446 and Joshua Jackson is the lowest rated by 247 at 86. Charlie Brewer is only rated at 80 by 247 right now (no composite score yet), but it's still pretty early in the rating process for 2017 recruits so his stock could potentially rise.

Bit harsh on a college kid who by most accounts is not a bad guy at all.

Edit: Looks like a lot of guys are calling him classless for this. I guess I'm not seeing it. College kid talks smack after winning a big football game. If I'm his parents I would probably tell him to refrain, but in the scheme of life, is this really something that means he has no class?

I feel like that would basically be telling the other team "we only care about your run game, feel free to hit crossing routes all day."

Isn't this basically the strategy behind the Bear Defense in a nutshell? Everything Bud does is designed to stop the run first and foremost. The leverage techniques of our DBs are supposed to take away the crossing routes behind the Bear front. Ideally, we would go to a big, fast middle linebacker, which we do not have. Failing that, I would have suggested a DE or a large S, but we have neither of those to spare due to depth. So I suggested one or two of our quicker DTs. If they clog up the middle and hit the gaps like the Mike is supposed to, then Foster doesn't need to pull the S into the box, leaving them free to play the middle of the field. Besides, I would much rather have a relatively quick, but large guy that can take on and shed blocks and tackle ball carriers that is a bit slower, but knows where to go and what to do over a small, fast guy that is easily blocked, quick to go to the wrong gap, quick to remove himself from a play without being touched, routinely removes his speed from the equation with his own mind, and worst of all cannot make a tackle when he actually goes were he is supposed to go.

Also, and most importantly, it was a joke.
