# | Hokies Offensive Coaches Discuss McMillian, Teller, TE's and the Recruiting Process I rather hope we have a compotent runnng attack rather than a component one
I am not giving up hope on Searels. I like the attitude he is trying to infuse and I want to see the OL be more dominant. I prefer his scheme to Grimes scheme, and my opinion of Searels ability to teach the position has improved after seeing Nijman's improvement from the spring.
Gotta love xkcd. My colleague in the office next to me has a shirt to that effect.
I knew that, just couldn't resist. Thanks for helping with the lights, heat, cooked food, cold beer, wifi, internet, etc.!
I would argue with you about "being better" than Grimes. That is a subject for debate. I don't think recruiting gives Searels an edge yet, because at Georgia, he was recruiting Georgia kids, LSU-Louisiana/Mississippi Valley kids, and Texas-Texas kids. At those schools, recruiting in-state talent is a bit easier. If he gets Landon Dickerson and similar kids down the road, I am happy to mea culpa.
From a coaching/technique standpoint, I watched a ton of film of his last Texas OL, and outside of the left guard, I did not find that group to be very sound technique-wise. Say what you want about Grimes OL group, but that group was sound fundamentally and opened up holes (the backs just were not experienced enough in a zone scheme to take advantage of them.) Last season, the OL wasn't as sound technique-wise and the running game suffered UNTIL Wyatt Teller entered the lineup and facilitated the ability to create movement on inside zones and provided the offense with a guard with the ability to pull and kick out on outside zones.
I'll be there. Hopefully there isn't too much red throughout the stadium.
Dream scenario is Vick winning the super bowl with the Steelers. If he signs I'lll have to get a jersey

That's what I was thinking. No wonder our offense has struggled. The players have no clue what he is saying.
...because the Allman Brothers 8 track would be on...
I get the reference (have an 8-track leg!), but you just confused about 90% of TKP with that. They have no idea what an 8-track tape is (was).

Yep- just learning how to call plays takes all but the most special QB's a year or two.
You ever use a -117G or an -152A?

I like to tell people it starts snowing around Halloween and stops around Spring Break. Last year the day before I left for Florida for SB it snowed 4 inches. There was a point last February when it got up to 35 one day and everybody was out in t-shirts and shorts. And that wind is crazy, I'm pretty thin so I get blown off course a lot.
