Yeah its been a doozy lately but it actually could have been a much worse winter we dodged the bullet on a few events if its raining its probably actually sleet at this point I think its a little to cold for rainfall both atmospherically and down here on the surface
Remember when we made fun of UVA for having 7 QBs on the roster?
Score!!
I've thought about it, but I don't see the value. One of the things that separates this site from the pack is the discourse. Most two option polls on heated issues are going to be split close to 50-50. Starting a thread "Who do you predict will be our starting QB in 2014?" will provide much more insight.
You guys are getting absolutely hammered this winter, but I thank you for taking the hits since VA is a little bit more prepared for ice and snow. We got a bit of sleet yesterday and the roads all but shut down.
I wish we were recruiting him for OLB. That would help our chances if this kid believes he has a future in the NFL
Is it just me or are we back to rain?
I was actually really proud of myself when I thought it up.

...okay, there's too many "E"s there. Sorry.
I think what makes it hard to predict is that there is such a different skill set for each of the QBs.
Lefty's made it clear that his goal is to create favorable match-ups for skill players based on their abilities/talents/unique skill set. If our running game remains mediocre, I see our offense running more read options/Inverted Veers, allowing a dual threat (Durkin or Brewer) more likely to get the starting job. If Edmunds breaks out, and string quality runs together game-in, game-out (ala Miami game), and our O-Line continues to improve, then I see one of the better pocket passers getting the starting nod (Ford or Leal).
He certainly knows how to speak to the press. I couldn't tell at all how he feels about us from that. Very even-keeled young man.
But I totally hope we get him. I think everyone believes we could have the best defense EVER if Coach Bud gets elite athletes and elite depth who all fit what he's trying to do.
snowing in blacksburg already. not sticking on roads/paths yet
I see this as a real possibility
Not that surprising actually. Everyone's attention is on something else besides swimming at Miami beach.

Best case scenario:
Chad Morris replaces a retiring Beamer in 2 years and retains Bud Foster.
Brilliant!
I may have had a 'play-in game' with Rody and Brewer, but I love the BYE for Leal.
It's that time of year where we pull out the brackets. Who ya got?
Hey, at least it will lead to a few good stories after the hangover.
Wow, a thousand camels? Sweet!
(was originally looking for a little kid swinging and missing a tee ball, but couldn't not post it once I saw it)
ohh man I can't wait to use this one liner on a night out.
Joe, any thoughts about a 'poll' feature, where the Original Poster can pose a question and give other posters X number of answers to select from? Not uncommon on other forums.
I thought it would be interesting to see a 'who do you predict will be our starting QB in 2014' poll.
EDIT: My apologies if this isn't the most recent sight update thread. First one produced by the search.
Yes! Great success!
Not so much "fell" as "got a little push."
Whoever posted this thread, thank you for confirming what all of us new.
I'd rather the coaching staff be honest with him. If we're recruiting him as a DL, that's what we're recruiting him as.
I'd be a much worse situation if we recruit him as a OLB, he commits, then in the fall we tell him "Actually we changed our mind. You're going to be a defensive lineman instead." It worked out for Logan Thomas, but the abrupt position change doesn't work out well in most situations.
BTW, defensive ends get paid more than outside linbackers in the the NFL. The kid probably wouldn't mind getting more money if he makes it.
