...and turn a few defenders around.
Agree, you nailed it. I'm unsure if they have no chance. I would think that Free agency is not excluded by not being invited to the combine... Anybody?
Now it gets interesting. How physical will it be.....?
Is this round robin/group play? If so, who else is in our group (other than Russia and Slovakia)?
Durkin, Sam Rogers, and Jerome Wright in one backfield on a short-yardage situation. Let's call it the HokiePokie offense, cause we'll be guaranteed to poke it in the endzone.
In fairness: Mountaineers DO travel out-of-state... I have a couple who live on my street in Decatur, GA
That car probably isn't a WVU grad -or maybe it was... what is etiquette to burn something??
Tariq Edwards has the potential to be the next James Anderson in the NFL. A unheralded yet solid starter for some of the league's best defenses.
Thanks. I like letting my geek flag fly. I thought about doing something more full-fledged but didn't have the time. I'm considered doing something after we've gotten through spring practices so I can get some more stats on the team and do another "Legend of..." style post.
If a player does not receive an invite to the combine, does that essentially mean that they have no chance of being drafted? I think Hopkins could definitely make a squad, agree with your list there. Wish he had gotten another chance to show his stuff.
Georgia: EVERYBODY PANIC!!!!
0" here in Fort Worth. Still isn't stopping people from completely failing at driving though.
Nailed it.
This needs to be an entirely separate post. I can see this taking on a life of its own (and the accompanying hilarity). +1 for the chuckle.
Team USA wins 7-1! We play Russia on Saturday.
Yes, it seems that if it's the last 2 minutes of each half, the offense can snap the ball at any point once they are set on the LoS. But if the offense subs, they still have to give the defense an opportunity to sub as well, regardless of where the play clock is at any point in the game.
Thanks..I'm sorry it was so cryptic..my sense of humor gets lost on people more often than you might think
Interesting #2 rule change: Offenses not allowed to snap the ball until the 40 second play clock has gotten to 29 seconds or less in order to allow defenses to substitute.
My initial thought was 'this may have kept Auburn out of the Nat'l Champ game.'
However, I looked at teamrankings.com and Auburn was #62 in plays per game-at 73.8, VT #58 at 74.1!
Top 6 were Texas Tech (8-5) 90.3, BYU (8-5) 89.9, Cal (1-11) 88.7, Fresno St. (11-2) 85.4, Baylor (11-2) 85.2, uva (2-10) 84.0.
So clearly, # plays/game does not equal wins.
The argument given by the NCAA is to 'enhance the safety of student athletes' but the counter argument is that there has not been any data to suggest increased player injury with difficulty with substitutions.
I think, for VT, it may give Bud Foster a slightly larger window to evaluate offensive personnel and get the right players/package in, which I like.
I don't see it affecting VT's offense.
Now I feel really stupid. Well done.

# | Proposed NCAA rules changes for targeting and defensive substitutions OK, Thanks. Does that mean in the last 2 minutes that the offense can start a play within the 1st 10 seconds of the play clock? That isn't clear here with that distinction.
I didn't even know they made such a thing...maybe you have a Unicorn?
edit: oh...put back in my place..thanks

Definitely the three you mentioned as well as Edwards and Miller.
