LOOOOOL. Me? Architect? I'd be a afraid for the people in those buildings. I'm pretty sure if Hokiefootball clicked my name and scrolled, it shows that I'm majoring in bovine scatology.
French, this is good. Too damn good to be open content on the interwebs. I feel like we need to password protect all your posts so other teams can't learn our defense.
Vandykes in a critical spot against Bama can he prove himself in coverage (he has the intangibles but is still a work in progress) against a team full of superior athletes and stay on the field, or else we become very vulnerable against the run while sitting in nickle with him off the field.
Oh, and I forgot (always implied, but also worth spelling out...) Great job with this French! Love TKP so much...
I'm wondering about coaching responsibilities given this shift back to more of the 4-4 look... Coach Cav used to coach Rovers and Whips, with Gray taking the Corners and Free Safety. More recently, Gray took over the 'whole' secondary, coaching corners, FS, and Rover, with Coach Brown just taking the Whip (and Foster the Mike and Backer). That made sense as my understanding (which could definitely be wrong) of the scheme used for the past few years had the Whip as the only true Hybrid, with the Rover as a more traditional strong safety. Now that Whips and Rovers are the hybrids, does it make sense to have one coach (Brown?...) coach them both, as before?
As good as our coaches are on the D side, it's always been a bit strange to me to have a single coach on a single (non-quarterback) position. I know Brown helps with the D-Line, but that still seems a little soft, overall.
Not sure if French (or anyone else, for that matter) is in a position to answer this kind of question, as it it logistical rather than tactical, but just thought I'd see if anyone has any thoughts...
He has more Turkey legs than UVA had fans at their spring game.
Well he has been tweeting about being stressed out by recruiting and wanting to focus on his senior year so im thinking probably around end of summer or early fall he will commit

Mine just came in yesterday... thanks for the super quick turnaround Joe! It looks great!
Well done, sir. This had me laughing awkwardly at my desk this morning.
Got mine yesterday. Thanks for the super fast shipping, Joe!
Hokiejoe11, you are a gentleman and a scholar. I just wish I would have seen this post early enough to take advantage. Hopefully you keep TKP in mind the next time you hit another motherload like this.
Gifs would also be helpful for people like me who read these at work and have youtube blocked. But if you can't, it's no big deal, I can always go back and read them at home (well, I do anyways).
Excellent work sir!
I can't see a picture of Deron Washington without hearing chants of 'teabag Paulus' ringing through my head... its a beautiful thing
Well FSU is still projected to take him (247) but Pitt was always a challenge. Would like to see him make more visits to VT before I get my hopes up! Any idea when he may decide?
I am proud and honored to have been the 38th upvote of this comment. As of this writing, it has zero downvotes (obviously...) Thus making GuitarMan's comment '38-0 bro!'. At least for the time being. Just felt this was worth celebrating.
So...how do I call this defense in NCAA College Football on the ol' XBOX?
French, I've said it dozens of times before on these boards, but you sir are the titties. Thank you for all that you do, kind sir.
Great explanation once again.
Is it possible for you to use a GIF or maybe your own youtube vid showing the X's and O's? It's at times hard to follow since Coach Foster's schemes are so complex. Seeing the GIF / Vid where the X's and O's move would be tremendous.
Keep up the great work!
#BEACHFLOW gets me every time!! I mean did David Cornwell ever look at a map of VA to find Blacksburg?
Revisionist history. As I remember we went undefeated and filled the thorphy case last year (as we had every year since 1999). No "facts" will change my mind :)
Ha, thanks. I don't want to kill the thread - I'm hoping to see lots more from you creative people. For some reason, these captions just instantly came to mind. I'm glad to provide a laugh.
Ugh. Sorry fat fingered it. I'll get ya back
