# | Bitter blog - Hokies, Thomas not worried about QB's stats, confidence I wonder if he's just not quite articulating what's going on in his mind. There are things he can control about himself - decisions, timing, accuracy, footwork, all of that. He can't make the WRs be in the right spot or catch the ball. He can be a leader and try to get guys going (and I saw an effort to do that on the field against Bama), but he also has to realize that it's the job of the coaching staff to fix the WRs' fundamentals, not his.
I am still looking for more details on his performance, but I can confirm that Kathleen Red Devil (Florida) WR/DB Hokie verbal commit Javon Harrison has returned two kicks for touchdowns in his first two games this season. I hope they seal the deal with Harrison. I think he can be a gamebreaker at WR and kickoff returner. He looks just like Cordarrelle Patterson when he catches and runs with the ball.
Yeah, I've never been in love with his quotability. I am most in love, however, with his competitiveness.
Thank you.
Im just going to go out here and do my own job, Thomas said today, acknowledging that some passes could have been placed better. If [the receivers] are not where theyre supposed to be, Im going to just keep moving forward, keep doing my own thing.
While I am a Logan Thomas fan, I'm not a fan of his quote above.
imagine what our defensive staff could do with bama's or lsu's roster
Sounds like a helluva scouting opportunity.
Hokie QB/WR/DB commit Travon McMillian had a big night, rushing for for 165 yards on 21 carries and passed for another 125 yards, as Hylton beat Osbourn 38-6.
McMillian will be given an opportunity to try QB at VT, but I think he will end up at receiver or defensive back. One receiver had 10 catches, but only got 43 yards. That means lots of screens.

Note, McMillian plays Stroman and Settle this Friday in Woodbridge this Friday

You don't like cheerleaders...but, but, but
Much easier and actually cheaper for me to attend a game at FedEx even if the prices are horrendous. When you break down the 5 hour one way drive, two nights in a hotel where the price has been increased (two night minimums), and then tickets to the game itself, it ends up being cheaper getting top seats at FedEx. Plus not as taxing physically (though has been mentally recently).
Kyle Fuller as gunner is another good fit, because he can tackle in the open-field like no joke. However, I'm not really going to harp on the coaches stocking the ST up with young players. We did lose A LOT of the roster since January.
Even if she wasn't a Hokie Girl, why would we down vote someone for their sexual orientation?
"Not that there's anything wrong with that"
I like it when someone gives an analysis like they actually watched the game. All of the ESPN responses have been shit. And thats not even from AA or HD, it's from some other guys. It was obvious they didn't even watch the game. Blah.
I do believe AMB is a Hokie Girl, so I'm not sure where the -1 came from

Testosterone fueled turkey leg for you!
Excellent article, French.
Hokies WR/QB/DB commit Greg Stroman had two rushing touchdowns and one passing touchdown as Stonewall Jackson (Manassas) beat Potomac 39-14.

I know this is just Stubhub so technically they have already "sold" -- that's a lot of extra tickets though.
They should offer all of the extra tickets to students......sell out! You have about 10k that normally miss out because of the lottery. Or open it up to the residents of blacksburg....you will fill the stadium.
I think the Special Teams owes us (and themselves) a few big plays this weekend.
I think I would like to see our current offense...but in hurry up mode. It seems like we have much better schematics this go round but i'm concerned our offense is too dependent on talent and playmakers which I fear we lack (especially at wr).
I watched Washington run a similar triple option look we used with a screen option which is similar to what Clemson does, and just like Clemson but unlike us, they run it in hurry up which I feel catches the defense off guard. They destroyed Boise st running one play 3 times in a row.
Few years ago I made an off remark (a little out of sarcasm), saying that since our play calling was so damn simple and we had tyrods legs, we might as well run the hurry up. People didn't seem to agree maybe due to nostalgia and now even Bill Belichik runs a hurry up offense; it doesn't have to be in spread. The ODU coach mentioned somewhere that he has like 10 plays in his entire book with only 2 running plays; I think we all know how effective his offense is.
I feel we have the right parts to still run a power - run based - offense, but in hurry up mode we have a chance to break open more of those Trey Edmunds runs or create separation with our speedy but underskilled receivers catching the defense off guard...
...also I believe that what's plaguing LT3 is he is thinking too much. He walked in on 3rd and long in his 1st appearance and threw a strike to Dany Coale. He then struggled for his 1st 5 games and once the weight of the world was lifted off his shoulders after a dismal performance against Clemson he showed up the next week with the game of his life. He has always performed better in his 2min offense which obviously is in hurry up.
The combination of proper offensive coaching (which i believe we finally have) from our line to the play design to Logan's mechanics, coupled with hurry up I think could be special.
I'll admit I tend to speculate quite a bit but I think there's something there...I'd like to know what ya'll think...
