As a keyplayer that joined just last year, this thread/fail chart is awesome!
like this?
It's more like a revolving door than a carousel. We all know that if a Hoo is on a horse, even a fake carousel one, he will inevitably fall off of it.
Mike London lost more quarterbacks than UVa had fans at their spring game.
Mike London's Bridge is falling down.
If you look at what Sims could have done it's a big loss for UVA. However I don't think anyone is really upset given his spring work ethic. Watford and Lmabert have shown a larger desire to the new OC anyways.
Bet he wishes he didn't transfer from Bama.
can we add a quarterback carousel to this chart?
a thousand turkey legs for you, sir.
I could probably program this into MatLab. Sorry, flowcharts = MatLab in my view.
Welp. 
For the record, InTheBleachers is Mike Felder (featured columnist at B/R and podcaster), and he played at UNC.
This is all I can think of since this thread started.

@iamswag1 @hokie_byrd @kbfuller17 ill hit phillip sims so hard he'll decide to just kick it in chesapeake take some onlines— James Gayle (@JGayle99) May 10, 2012
I was thinking the same thing while reading this.
Big words from a man who acts like an ass on the sideline. Sims will resurface at Hampton or Norfolk State.
UVA apologists will be saying "at Alabama they weren't required to go to class"
LEGEND OF ZELDA IS THE GREATEST GAME EVER CREATED
I like you, french, but you're overcookin' my grits.
Cross Saban and head directly to Bermuda Triangle @ralphdrussoap UVA announces QB Phillip Sims ineligible and no longer enrolled.— Paul Finebaum (@finebaum) May 31, 2013
Harsh words.
Hit it!
I had high hopes for this guy when he went to Alabama. I love seeing VA products do well, and if just happened to win championships in the vaunted SEC, I'd have been happy for him. It is looking more and more like he should have stayed there. Sad story. Hope he finds success somewhere.
Having said that, BooVA.

It sounds like he had some academic issues, to put it mildly.
"The thing we tell the young men who come to the University of Virginia to receive a world-class education and play for our football program is pretty simple," said Virginia coach Mike London. "Go to class. Show class and treat people with dignity and respect. Those directions are pretty easy to follow and they will lead you on a path of success.
"When an individual strays from those directions, it is very disappointing to me. Phillip Sims did not make the commitment he needed to succeed here. I appreciate his efforts last season. He is a very talented young man who is blessed with some extraordinary athletic abilities. I still believe Phillip Sims can and will be a successful person. We will do what we can to assist Phillip in continuing his academic and athletic opportunities elsewhere.
"The young men who remain with this football program are committed and have done a great job in the classroom, in the weight room and on the practice fields. Our team spring semester grade point average is the highest it has been in the past 10 years and we understand that for us to be successful on Saturdays in the fall, it will require that everyone involved in the program do what is necessary each and every day to prepare to win.
Is Grimey trying to pull a Newsome and recruit TEs to play OL? Either way, this kid looks to be a sleeper. He's only played football for a year, so he's raw, but we can develop players. Nice pull.

Spoke with Jim Pletcher, recent #Hokies TE commit Kalvin Cline's coach. Said Cline is a hoops guy who played football for 1st time last year— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) May 31, 2013
Cline had a few I-AA offers. Was going to try to walk on at Miami. #Hokies first made contact about 2 weeks ago. Jeff Grimes made 1st call.— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) May 31, 2013
Football runs in the Cline family. His father, Mike, played DT for Arkansas State and was an 8th-round pick by the Packers in 1985— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) May 31, 2013
Pletcher said Kline was 6-4, 215 pounds last April. He's 240 pounds today. "Fell in love with the weight room," Pletcher said.— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) May 31, 2013
OK, doing a Google image search for the football player Kalvin Cline is virtually impossible.— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) May 31, 2013
That punt return was hilarious.
