Agree with you. I think Moto's trust in the rest of the D is higher this year and that helps him not try to be everywhere in the middle at once, allowing him to read the play faster and as a result play downhill. Trust is a big deal in that decision making sequence. It matters a lot to resolve the issues pointed out in this thread.

# | Bitter blog - Hokies' search for backup WRs continues, but Burden more confident in group Unfortunately no mention of Joel Caleb...
There's a TE to QB joke in there somewhere...
woof
ahh..yess, the ever-enjoyable toma-mock chop
Really? The opportunity to design the perfect LB and no laser eyes? No fire breathing, the ability to fly? Superhuman strength?
Seems like a missed opportunity.
...it was that bad...
Honestly, many of the residents were surprised the city allowed him to come back after how much the out of towners trashed Heinz Field and the surrounding area the last time
Agreed. Chris Chase is pretty notorious for doing pieces like this
I think he just watched a few too many 30 for 30s
They actually have a fan base?
Writer must be over 40 and remember da U when their stuff was more prevalent.
"Break a leg" - Every QB2 to QB1 before the game.
How could they tell if Pittsburgh was trashed?
Thanks for sharing, great job gentlemen!
"I don't want to platoon" - Every QB with a chance to start
"Put me in, Coach" - Every QB who doesn't win starting job
It is great to mock them, though. Which is nice.
This should have been titled Teams with the Worst Fans.
I know that lady. She's the one who wins the NCAA tourney pool every year by picking winners based on uniform colors.
I didn't see that, but it looks like French posted a video where all the coaches have been replaced by current players, and our players are going to be elementary kids.
Sure hope they know what they're doing.
I don't think FSU fans bother me so much as the War Chant ad nauseam during their games.
He should apply to be the "Big Kid" teacher at Exum's Daycare and Recreation Center.
Exercise of the day: Wind Sprints... Every. Day.
Yeah, I can't say that I've heard it but maybe once and I don't really remember it other than it had a message. I added it to my list there because I remembered the title when I saw it...
UVA doesn't have the same caliber of QB's that OSU does.
I wasn't saying I am surprised, I just hope it gives the Hokies a slight edge if there is discord in the OSU locker room.
"As for naming the starter, Meyer told reporters not to expect any news before the Buckeyes run out of the tunnel on Monday, Sept. 7 in Blacksburg to play Virginia Tech."
Well they will likely need both on Labor Day, plus their new H-back. Just Saying...
This blew up faster than I could get my two cents in. I was a founding father of a now successful fraternity at Tech and will try to summarize thusly:
1. GDI was a term used more by Greek unaffiliated students and the GD part comes from the fact that most unaffiliated only get to see the parties and assume that all fraternities stand for is drinking and womanizing. I was always tired of the "pay for friends" and "frat boy" look-down-the-nose comments, they always had a hint of jealousy in them.
2. The term "frat boy" is derogatory. It basically carries immaturity and boorish behavior connotation. We used to say we recruited frat boys and graduated fraternity men. It is just implies all of the stereotypes from movies and almost all of them are bad.
3. All of my non-Greek friends did the same things, mostly in smaller groups, with cheaper everything and usually less fun, the main exception was we did charity/philanthropy almost weekly, had a name to live up to, and a team aspect to our extra-circulars.
I agree with French on this. It's a comfort/confidence thing.
Mike is a leadership position, and if you don't go into it confidently, you're just a little too quiet, and possibly out of place and off-balance.
I would expect some growth this year, as he was thrown into the deep end a bit before he was ready last year. With any luck, he'll develop quickly, but it won't surprise me if he gets tested early and often by Ohio State.
