Also, according to Bitter he is now 240 not 206
Wouldn't it make sense for him to just do a year of prep school this Fall? Too bad our pipeline, Hargrave is getting rid of its football program.
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
Because #goacc. It's that simple.
i mentioned Blades of Steel above. I loved that game. Played it so much. What a classic
His film looks great. Very, very impressive at TE and DE.
That title game vs Italy was pretty much rape
Not the news I wanted to see this morning. We have to get him on campus
F*cking brilliant, Hokie_x3_Hi. Turkey leg for you.
Use imgur.com to upload it.
Indeed. I created a ManBearPig Hopkins in MSPaint but I can't figure out how to get the image into here. I guess I need to upload it to somewhere prior to linking to it? Ain't nobody got a URL for that. Oh well. I'll enjoy my HopkinsBearPig on my own.
Does it tweak anyone else that ESPN says that he is a "Alabama and Notre Dame" target. I guess it will make it that much sweeter when we #beatbama
Anyone know who recruited him? I wonder if it was Lefty himself? If it WAS Lefty then I am very intrigued...
Personally, I like the Basketball/Football crossover athletes. Especially for your WR/TE. His height is a huge asset and his experience playing basketball should help improve his hands. I can see him being thrown jump balls on a fade route in the back of the endzone and catching them, landing one foot in while falling out of bounds. That's the way we need to utilize his height. Having a guy like him is huge because few DBs will match his height. I don't see him being put at DE though. Most of his tape shows him being fast, but lacking in tackling form. Many of his plays are assisted tackles which is effective, but he had trouble taking down a RB by himself. Welcome to Hokie Nation Mr. Cline!
Yes! Why is this the first thing I thought of too? I hope he comes out of the tunnel for every game in a DeLorean.
Cornwell may not be able to even play this Fall based upon this article. He would probably drop down the boards if this doesn't get resolved. Hard to stay ranked as the top QB if you don't play a single snap your senior season. It will be interesting to follow what will happen with this.

You mean college athletes AREN'T highly-paid robots that exist solely to perform on the football field for my personal enjoyment? Inconceivable!
Bingo. The second that Saban (or anyone else for that matter), is forced to somewhat abandon his run defense to stop the bleeding in the passing game, we've got 'em right where we want 'em. Then, it's Edmunds left, Edmunds right, Edmunds up the middle 'til the defense figures it out.
I really wanted to, but I would have only been able to see the Saturday game. Too long of a drive for one game.
His DE footage is impressive in the fact that he blows by virtually every LT in his highlight reel and gets the sack. The pursuit looks great, but when you look a bit closer, almost all of the LT's are slow, lock up their feet, and fail to truly engage Cline. Plus, while he "gets after ya" in true Beamer fashion, you don't see a lot of power - he's extremely upright in his rush, so I'd tend to agree that he looks like a safer projection on the Offensive side of the ball.
Now lets Gentrify this kid and get him in the dining halls...excited to see how he pans out. Certainly intriguing.
That definitely makes sense. Also, as soon as I asked it I realized that once a team gets out of its base formation, the run game gets opened right back up. Thanks for the response!
If your referring to the one playing center field to prevent any HailMarys i believe it was Eddie Whitley.
Hargrave is eliminating football? News to me.
