On offense, possibly. Just wait until 2016. Hopefully UT players will be butt-sore because they lost the game and from getting pushed around by the o-line.
haha, How about Pred & Shred? (Predator and Shredder)
Williams already seems to like the Predator likeness and Shai has the speed to "shred" the field.
Knowing how the owner runs thing I bet he opens a whole shitload of seats that are on the track and infield itself. Even from the closest seats that are shown on that map it is still really far to the field. Even you had a sold out stadium the crowd noise on the field would be fairly low as well. This "stadium" is designed to let sound out not keep sound in as Lane was designed.
And yes, Billy Ray Mitchell at center is a tease for you to read my film review on him.
2016 OL
Jonathan McLaughlin-Colt Pettit-Billy Ray Mitchell-Braxton Pffaf-Wyatt Teller
feels pretty good to me...
But our food is the best. You can't put a price on food...
Nice write-up. I'm excited about Pfaff.
Our depth next season will be crazy on the O-line; I counted 17 returning O-linemen, and that doesn't include Pfaff, Taraschke, or the other four incoming freshman. Potential for 23 OL guys next year, including 6 seniors and a Sophomore with a year of starting experience (McLaughlin). I'm sure some underclassman will quit, transfer, etc., but that is a ton of guys. Could it be that the OL is our biggest strength next season?
So one ramen noodle night per week for 2.5 years and I've paid for my tix!

# | Bitter blog - Recruiting swoon in 2010, '11 catching up to Hokies; VT gets walk-on kicker commitment from Blacksburg very interesting article. i knew that we were scraping the barrel but i didnt know it was that bad.
i think this class is absolutely going to turn that trend around....especially when Hand shocks the nation and commits to us tomorrow.
I have a strange feeling it will be Edmunds (if healthy) with Caleb as number 2 next year. I don't think they would waste a talent like that if they didn't plan to use him and use him a lot. I also remember last year how other players talked about his potential and would tell reporters to remember his name, etc. Other players in my recent memory who have had similar hype from teammates are Kam Chancellor and Dadi Nicholas.
I still gave you a leg because you could very well be right and at least one of the many RBs will be transferring or changing positions soon.
I have a feeling he will go to Georgia, late comer but its a step up from Ole Miss and as bad as I don't want to say it but... it might be a 1/2 step up from us. And closer to Ft. Lauderdale for sure
I should make a parody video with Sarah McLaughlin singing raising money for my tickets to Bristol.
Just reading this makes me so excited. I really can't wait for our new O-line recruits to just start pancaking everyone in front of them.

# | Bitter blog - Recruiting swoon in 2010, '11 catching up to Hokies; VT gets walk-on kicker commitment from Blacksburg Great article, Andy. It shocked me to see how little those two classes produced compared to the ones before. Recruiting seemed to get lazy in 2010 and 2011, lets hope that never happens again.
Welcome Mr. Carson! Please carry on the tradition of fantastic special teams play and make us proud you are a Hokie!
The staff probably didnt know his name a week ago.
Based on the vague explanations, that seems to be what they are implying...but who knows...
Then Diablo and Magic Man.
^^ My Man.
So does this mean VT has accepted him in terms of academics?
Welcome to Hokie Nation, Carson! Always glad to have a talented special teamer join up with Beamerball.
Be honest with yourself. You are going to need binoculars from all the seats.
From last night's 247sports Signing Day Expert Predictions (sure-to-go-wrong-but-hopefully-not-in-this-case):
Raymon Minor, ATH, Richmond (Va.) Benedictine
Announcement: TBA
Minor Crystal Ball: Virginia Tech (80 percent)Expert Picks
Adams: Marshall. "The question here is not Minor's interest in the Hokies, who have long been the clubhouse leader in his recruitment. if he can get in, he will attend Virginia Tech. As of now though that is very much in question."
Bartow: Virginia Tech. The Hokies have led for Minor for a while and it looks like they have opted to sign him.
Shurburtt: Virginia Tech. "Things have changed during the last few days in terms of Minor and the Hokies and it's now all systems go toward a signing day announcement for his long-time favorite. I was told just an hour or so ago, it's 99.9 percent that he signs with the Hokies. I never put odds that high, but it looks like a safe pick."
Simmons: Virginia Tech. It looks like might work out between Minor and Virginia Tech. If a kid wants to be somewhere and the school wants him, those things usually have tendency to work out.
Wiltfong: Virginia Tech. Unless academics push him to Marshall.
Think if you are a young 2015 Stud Recruit from the 757 and you get to meet Mike Vick in Beamers office. Thats HUGE for these young recruits!
Now, can we just block some kicks this year?
