I don't disagree because that seems to be all the info we've heard about Manning, but I'll play devil's advocate. College is a rough transition for a lot of people, and if he had always had football to provide a foundation for himself, then having trouble in football/school/college transition/away from home will wear down even the best attitudes. Here's hoping he can turn it around, but nothing I've heard makes me expect that.

Not to nitpick, but I have to disagree on the potential landing spots.

Miami spent the 8th pick on Tannehill last year. He had a solid rookie season that was completely overshadowed by the greatest crop of rookie QB's ever. No way they give up on him so soon.

KC just gave up a lot to get Alex Smith. Whether or not that was prudent is up for debate, but I don't see them cutting ties with him after one season.

Buffalo just drafted Manuel in the first.

depends, you can play through it IE jason Worilds but depending on severity can last for a while (IE 2 months) however thats a very extreme case. We'll prolly hear about it here shortly and he could very easily be back for the bama game

Is that a normal size hat? Good lord!

Stuart Mackenzie: Look at the size of that boy's heed.
Tony Giardino: Shhh!
Stuart Mackenzie: I'm not kidding, it's like an orange on a toothpick.
Tony Giardino: Shhh, you're going to give the boy a complex.
Stuart Mackenzie: Well, that's a huge noggin. That's a virtual planetoid.
Tony Giardino: Shh!
Stuart Mackenzie: Has it's own weather system.
Tony Giardino: Sh, sh, shh.
Stuart Mackenzie: HEAD! MOVE!
Stuart Mackenzie: I'm not kidding, that boy's head is like Sputnik; spherical but quite pointy at parts! Now that was offside, wasn't it? He'll be crying himself to sleep tonight, on his huge pillow.

Couldn't resist. That being said...welcome! Come be a Hokie and joke with us.

It may go without saying; but not acknowledging is more insulting (and the classy thing to do) than anything. I've laughed a few times on the blog section after a VT football story when some LOLUVA hack attempts to throw trash and it's dismissed without a single counter/reply...

Speaking of which is, is UVA on the schedule this year? I forgot...

I like the comments about Frank being able to fill the trophy case. Remind me again what year they won a NC in football?

Not lacrosse or ice dancing...but football!

After last year, this doesn't disappoint me too much. They were undisciplined and SOFT. I realize some are injuries, etc. But I'm glad to see we're making it tough again.

Manning is a great example. I got beat out...so I quit. That's much better option than working hard, studying (classroom, film and playbook) and earning a spot.
