Me.
I agree with most above, the OL rotation doesn't concern me at all, it actually gives me a lot of confidence in Osterloh and especially Nijman. I believed Osterloh was close but Nijman too? Awesome.
I also think the 3rd receiver notion is overblown. Ford, Phillips, and Hodges are our top 3 and please don't forget about Cline! Malleck is also a known commodity albeit a traditional TE. We need a third wideout to step up, but it's not that big of a deal when you have Hodges/others that can play that h-back and slot role as we heard from Loeffler today.
My biggest concern on offense is just getting the RB rotation right. We can afford to let a 3rd receiver emerge through gameplay.
Old school high five.

You must be stoned, HokieStoned
We have to be able to run the ball. We have some pretty good backs that have size. Lefty has to trust the run game. In my mind the worse game he called was Western Michigan. That game should have been over in the first half.
Actually, I'm not going to the game, but thanks for asking.
And this will be the last time I open this thread.
Purdue mini-plans are in my ad box on the right hand side of the screen. Nothing makes sense today.
He hasn't looked out of place. BUT, Wyatt Teller is an All-ACC caliber/potential All American player ability wise. He generated far more push consistently than any other OL in 2014 (in about half the snaps.) It makes zero sense.
I will be at the game with the lady. We will stop by the tailgate for sure. Any TKPers who are also in the Clan (Clash of Clans) going?
I'm going and am new to campus and don't currently have any acquaintances here. I'll be at TKP tailgate.
Yep. To me, Braxton Pfaff and Alston Smith are more "known quantities" than Kyle Chung, Tyrell Smith, or Austin Clark? Why aren't they working at the ones sometimes?
(Answer- because they aren't ones. Hence my frustration.)
Nijman getting time makes sense, because Hansen is banged up and Nijman may be more ready to play left tackle (with McLaughlin moving over) than Osterloh is ready to play right tackle. Plus, Nijman is just playing one position, while Osterloh was being forced to rep at multiple positions, which is tough for an inexperienced kid.
But bar the media from the courtroom and issue gag orders to all parties until a verdict is reached.
That pretty much is the definition of a secret trial/tribunal.
Joe will be announcing an official TKP tailgate soon. But I'll stop by yours also, I'm traveling alone to the game and don't know many VT fans or anything about Blacksburg since the mid 90's.

Agreed!
Me!!!!!
Btw-anybody want to organize tailgate(s)?
I'm in Lot 8 (Litton Reeves). Usually get a good/flat spot that backs up to grass.
For the last three years we are 1-2 against Pitt, Boston College, and Miami individually. This year's games are going to be tough. With improved talent and improved coaching building a better team, we should win more of these matchups.
I'll be there. Hopefully I'll meet some of Yall there. I'm wondering if they will let me in wearing my "Stick it in" shirt.

Wh y must we post that picture. You should just put a fu$%ing mini frank celebrating a 0-0 tie inside the trophy case to kick both my left and right but at the same time
Am i seizing with excitement or from the gif?! Either way it tastes great.
F*^k! Please stop the flying monkeys! Thank our Lord that it is only 2 weeks and a hour away. Makes me wish I had done acid in college. Teller is #1 and Osterloh will be an All American. "Bad day to stop sniffin' glue"
Exactly it's pushing Parker to get better to show that he's within reach of actually playing. I think too many times at Tech they stated this guy is the starter and no one else has a chance to play and there's no competition. Competition is never a bad thing and having other guys step up encourages them to be even better in the long run. it also keeps egos in check and makes starters work harder to retain their starting role. Understand the need for cohesion on the offensive line but maybe the coaches decided the need for depth is just as great or greater as the need for cohesion, since the likelihood of no injuries is pretty slim.
I'll be there, tailgating in the Cassell lot with my wife's family. The in-laws have an RV and a spot at the airport so I'll be there most of the weekend.
