Could be a bit of both.
Probably more than a bit of both, actually.
I already am.
So if one removes all conjecture:
Arians originally said,"Thomas will play for at least the first half".
But he then changed his decision saying "We drafted him for two years from now, not November," Arians said, via the team's official website. "It just so happened his number got called (earlier.) I was not going to let him fail (in San Francisco) because once you fail those scars never go away.
"It's very hard to get the guys back in the locker room if you cost them the playoffs. I just wasn't going to put him in that situation. Right or wrong, it just was my decision."
That would be fantastic
Did anyone else think Colin Ferrell's character was actually a good dad for the first part of the episode? Probably should've seen that coming
After watching our undersized line getting mashed by Miami and Pitt, knowing that they could have a space eating two gap monster give them some depth along with a stronger Ricky Walker makes me get all goose pimply.
I agree - whit is a perfect fit for us- he only made one misstatement in that interview though:
But if we can get it -- which I would be disappointed if we don't -- the largest attended college football game, that'd be pretty cool. Especially if we win it.
I think he meant to say:
Especially WHEN we win it...

Great news todayβ Tim Settle (@tim_settle) June 25, 2015
(I don't know what the news is, but...hey.)
Rich guy funding baseball or rich guy growing the endowment. Basically wahoo Olympic Sports are at a greater advantage because they have more financial backing in the form of available scholarship money. Read the article it makes a lot of sense. In the case of UVA Baseball they not only have the endowment for help but they also had huge private donations. So they are at an even greater benefit. This isn't just something that I made up or thought of. Came from the article and is supported by fact. Anybody that played a D1 non-revenue sport in college would have a lot of insight on how scholarships are awarded. If VT can only provide you a 50% scholarship but, UVA can provide you 75%, most people are going to go play for UVA. VT is at a disadvantage. The article interviews the VT pitching coach and he explains the disadvantage VT has compared to competing schools (i.e. UNC, UVA, etc).
Ah, we can wish him well but not Miami!
If this season lives up to half of the greatness that was last season, it'll be awesome.
That bike scene had me like
That's why I said without the whole story.
If it's the news I want to hear I'll drink for him.
I would say Whitehead was towards the top of this class. He may not have had the "stars", but he did have an offer from Ohio St and a few other Big Ten schools. Getting him from their territory was nice and his film was as impressive of anyone outside of Settle and Lawson.
Yep, that was good to see. I hope Eric listens, his film was very impressive and would be great to have on the Dline the next few years. I hope he and Adonis both makes it to Blacksburg tho and do well.
Yeah, opponents had an average net punting of ~36 ypp while VT averaged ~38 ypp and we were 43rd in punting efficiency. So we gained on exchanges of punts, just not as much as other ACC teams, which had several excellent punters last year.
Yeah, but Johnson had nothing close to the same issues. It seemed like he just had an overall general lack of talent, IIRC. I mean, on top of being something of an @ssdouche. But yes, your point still stands. None of this matters until we actually play the game.
They need to keep the players away from their mascot.

If I were there, I would have whispered to that kid, "Spiderman died because you touch yourself." Is that wrong?
And while I may have been flip with my post, I admit that I have not heard JG tagged with pedophile. And well, I've been around long enough to know what the word means. Seemed like a throw out and I didn't know what it was about. Am I the only one in the dark on this?
I think I've read where there will be some flashforwards (which is more accurate I think) this year too.
I think that the first episode of season 1 was far more nebulous than season 2's opener. However, SO FAR, I'm a little less intrigued this season than after the opening episode last season.
But it's still just game 1 of a long season...
We were saying the same things last year about how screwed Paul johnson was.... Let's wait to see if Miami flops on the field before we discuss him being fired.
That being said total dick move
Long overdue. Bud is totally worth the price tag.
Probably, and the potential bonus #s drop him lower... But for last year, he was the highest paid.

Just like "Major League'!
