Best of luck to a classy individual -- and a very special thanks for providing some much needed excitement in the otherwise shitty Clemson game.
He was dating my friend at the time. That one play basically zapped his confidence, it was tough to see it on his face.
Was MVP of the Jordan Classic at 16 in a game that featured Anthony Bennett (a potential lottery pick) and Kevin Pangos. Not bad...
Terrible news. If there is one guarantee though he will be successful and lead by example wherever his life after football takes him. A true Hokie.
He grew 3 (or so) inches since we recruited him? We must of lucked out. as that 3 inches is gold. I hope his game is still strong, it must be a tough adjustment 3 inches higher
You know, life gives everyone shit cards at some point in time. How you end up playing them is what defines you. I love seeing that he is staying "actively involved" and that he gets to keep his scholarship. Best of luck to him in everything.
Fuck Fuck Fuck Fuck. FUUUUCK. He was impressive on the field and I've heard nothing but great things about him as a person. I hope he ends up on his feet with whatever he gets into now.
I watched him play in the Arby's Classic two games (didn't catch the game against Hale, who couldn't do anything but dunk.) Very well rounded scorer. Confident accurate jump shot and strong adjusting his body to get contact around the rim and go to the line. He also can drive off a jumpshot fake with both hands.
He isn't explosive and won't rattle the rim, and when you look at him, you'd think he was out of shape (Eric Gordon body-type) but a very mature and smart player. I can assure you he will be an upgrade over Robert Brown.
Finally some positive VT basketball news! It's been a while
I was so looking forward to watching him for the years to come.
I'm not sure which makes me more upset: this or Exum's injury. Two guys who deserved anything but the hands they were dealt. Guess it's a good thing they're tough, high-character men.
Coming into the year, I would have laughed if you'd told me we would end up at or above .500 overall this year. Then, after our fast start, I was still shaking my heads at all the people upset because we weren't ranked, or weren't in the Bracketology, because there was no way we would keep that up. And now I'm hating myself for it.
Now, that's not to say we're doing better than I thought. Sure, we have one more win over a top 15 team than I expected, but we also have a realistic chance of going 11-21, which is absurdly terrible.
At this point, if we could manage 2 or 3 wins in these next 6 games it'll give us something to build towards next year, and that would be ok with me.
before the season started, we were all hoping for just 1 ACC win. we were spoiled after the good start and defeating OKST. that set the bar to high for us and from there it has been a let down. If you compare it to what the predictions were before the season and where we are now; we are actually doing better than most people thought. You can never really judge a coach until he has his players in there doing the style he wants. usually 3 years is the usually amount to build a body of work to judge.
6"9' 205 on rivals and now he is 7 foot and trying to get to 225. Hopefully he keeps his speed and burst with the growth.
High character guy. Hard working young man. I hope he becomes a coach someday. I think he may be in the mold of a young Torrian Gray.
His butt-on-the-turf interception will always be a part of Hokies' lore.
I really feel for this kid... So much potential tragically cut short by a freak neck injury. I hope coach Gray will continue to teach him and he becomes a graduate assistant coach in the future.
What a shame... can't say I didn't see it coming, though, neck injuries aren't something to mess around with.
Wishing him the best for the future.
thought he had some good potential and wouldve been great to add to depth this year. althought seeing that hit he took im just glad hes ok. i think hes making the right decision and wish him the best
I can't believe people still remember this dude. Haha
Agreed. His injury on the field during the FSU game was terrifying for everyone. Still, in his short time playing he made an impact. Remember this interception?
Sad to hear. High character guy. Best of luck to Michael in the future.
Dark chocolate peanut butter cups? Of course.
Dark chocolate M&M's? Yep.
Snow-caps? yes please.
Her plane lands late tomorrow night.
I don't disagree, I just provided that as an example of letting a QB go after winning a Super Bowl.
What is most likely to happen is Baltimore, unless they can reach a deal with Flacco before hand, will use their franchise tag on him and see if he can follow up his success in the following regular season.
Just brought man tears to my eyes.
