Stanford - Sarkasian will be in LA. If you hadn't heard the news yet, there's an opening for head coach at USC.

Don't worry, I'll bench any players that try to beat the Hokies, should the Trojans face them again.

I've played that game every year since Joey Harrington was on the cover. Sad to see it go.

0:37 - "We're bad. Okay. That being said, I still think we got a shot in the Coastal."

1:45 - "I don't know if we're going to rebound."

..pick one, big boy.

Couple of thoughts:
1. Is he sure he is a UNC fan because he sounds like some people on this site with his LT3 hate....

2. He is aware we beat ECU and GT and UNC did not...and they only have 1 win on the season?

If this is the shame I bring upon Hokie Nation by being raised by people from Chicago, so be it.

He is a smart kid who has terrific athleticism. If you want him in drills, he looks a bit awkward. Most recruiting analysts only go to camps, where the kids are in non-pad drills pretty much the whole time. Those analysts go to the camps because they can see large numbers of recruits at the same time. Based on those camps, most of the recruits receive their scoring.

Once the season starts, those recruiting folks only have the bandwidth to go watch the guys who scored at elite levels over the summer, and even then they focus on match ups where they can see multiple high level guys. Great performances in marquee match ups (especially head to head and on TV) have more impact on guys rising and falling.

Facyson perhaps didn't jump out as a rising senior during camps, but the Hokies jumped because of his anticipation, burst, and football intelligence, all three of which are critical for playing the field corner position. In Foster's offense, the field corner plays much more zone and robber coverage, so you don't have to be an elite man coverage player to be successful. Those camps focus almost exclusively on man coverage when top DB's are matched up with top WR's.

Haha, FOSTER P is brilliant. I WAS thinking about including Facyson in the FAINTs originally, but figured I'd save it until/unless Logan desperately needed the extra help. Nonetheless, excellent contribution, thank you and welcome.
