Ok - now which signee are we going to pin as the guy that we should have moved to TE?
Save this for a different message board.
So since Santamaria is listed and none of the other kickers are, does that mean that he will be on scholarship?

I also have a problem with a system that allows for it to go on, unchecked. To that extent, yep, I'm conflating things, but given that we have evidence of possible abuse or conflict of interest, it's something that needs to be looked at.
Let me boil this down to my main problem: there exists an industry in which parents pay money to coaches, who in turn engage in (sometimes extensive) contact with college coaches to influence the process, either by trying to influence the coach or the recruit. Payment of any individual who then acts as an intermediary on your behalf is called hiring an agent and is the definition of an NCAA violation.
I was in an off-site meeting and couldn't look on my phone and got ALL the bad news at once, so I didn't take it all that well.
Either way, hopefully the guys we got are the building blocks for something special.
Not worried about the STARS, Confident the VT Coaches will continue to develop talent that produces more wins than loses year after year after ...
Now don't tempt me to go all Bronson on ya with the Colt! Nah, I better chill, pour some Gallo and maybe take a short cruise on the Santamaria...wouldn't want the police to have to go all McMillian (telling my age, haha) on me!
He just signed. Gotta say we brought in a great WR class. Hey Javon, don't come across the middle because Mr. Holland Fisher #TheHeadHunter might knock your gold teeth out.
Oh and Derrick, enjoy picking splinters out of your ass. When you do see the field expect to be pancaked from Mr. Pettit #Colt45

Unfortunately I nailed it outside of Scott to ecu Instead Of Odu.
Welp, I mixed up their respective attributes, my bad. Still a good addition to the roster.
sharp dressed young man. His twitter feed was.....um.......different....than that of Javon Harrison.
Regardless we have a QB competition a WR competition and a RB competition. Who would have thought that in 1 year we would have major changes with recruiting and bringing in the guys to help the offense and lessen the pressure for our D
Focus, guys. We gotta think about who will lead our offense next year.
Now, if I were to grade Mark Leal, I'd give him an F. One fifty-yard drive here and there won't get it done.
It seems like the board would be happy with a fusion of Andrew Ford and Chris Durkin. I kinda like the tempo that they operate with.
Its now 28 with the addition of Ford
HokieSports now has Isaiah Ford on the Signed list.
It's time for a:

As a pragmatist, all that matters to me is what happens in the end.
It seems to me like your real problem is with these certain people acting like jackasses. That's a seperate issue from 7-on-7 and private coaching/training, which is a seperate issue altogether from having relationships with coaches who influence kids to do to your school. It sounds like you're conflating all three.
I. Ford is on the ticker! SOLD!!!!
Rivals is indicating him to VT
We have 27 in on the HokieSports ticker. That's a pretty big class. Other than Ford, whom else are we waiting on? Any?
Let's See:
2 from Florida (3 if Ford sticks)
3 from PA
2 from Ohio
2 from NJ
1 from GA
Not Bad, we have definitely increased our recruiting footprint.
Its now HokieSports confirmed
Sweet heaven, Bitter just tweeted. Ford to VT....AGAIN!
On the plus side...I learned what the word "conflating" means today.
