YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

#ALLOFTHEFULLERS.

giggity

There are a bunch of big hits out there as well as blocked kicks. A bocked extra point returned for a score comes to mind.

How could I have possibly forgotten DMFW's return to effectively end the GT game?! What a thrill.

While the highlights of him on offense are nice, most of those kids are scared to death to hit him.

Do you remember that many folks were asking me how to beat Clemson's misdirection? Quick reads and then attack and knock the shit out of it, demonstrated here by Edmunds. http://youtu.be/CYPH96CspAk?t=4m38s That is just nasty.

I hesitate on Edmunds, not because I think he can't do the job, but because I think he will be the best Hokie backer since Adibi, but he would be a servicable running back. I think Scales will have a role and we shouldn't dismiss him (remember, they played Oglesby over Wilson in 2009.)

Other questions:

1) Does Via beat out Painter, Benedict, or Wang? Via was better than Jaymes Brooks in long stretches last year (watch key drives against Michigan and Georgia Tech. Also, Via was better than Brooks against Clemson.)

2) Ronnie Van Dyke is too good not to play. Do they Barquell Rivers JWG and Tweedy, or do they consider RVD back at rover where there is no proven backup (or starter really.)

3) What is ultimately the defensive line rotation? By most accounts, McCray and Harley were banging on the door this spring, and Maddy was the defensive MVP. Does Wiles decide to go with Antoine Hopkins? And, is there even a possibility that if McCray shows up as the monster we all know he can be, does he beat out Collins, whose level of play dropped precipitously after the Georgia Tech game.

4) Who is the next man up at corner?

5) Who is the number 4 wide receiver? Do they sit Caleb and play Fuller (what I call the CJ Leak scenario) to make sure that Kendall... if he commits, doesn't change midstream? Or does Caleb play? Where does Knowles and Willie Byrn fit in?

6) Something we have not talked about either. This is the first year in a long time that the Hokies don't have a crusher as the kickoff man. Journell was fine on field goals, but does he have that Justin Meyer mule leg. Meyer was an underappreciated weapon, often winning the initial field position battle for the Hokies until the punters gave the advantage back.

7) Punting. Can Caleb punt? I jest, but last year's performance isn't acceptable. The Rangers have also lost their top two punt return guys, which may be the toughest part time job in football.

we didn't recruit seth out of HS so he went to Liberty because Greenberg offered him walk on his first-year and then a 3-year scholly.

So then when stephen came around greenberg recruited him hard and Mrs. Curry I believe said she didn't want stephen to go to Tech because they didn't treat seth fairly. At least that's what I heard.

If Clemson didn't beat us 61-13 in two games last year, I'm pretty sure his mind would have already been made up. We gotta stop losing those big games and we'd be able to attract more talent.

Still think he's coming home though, go hokies.

Hopefully he signs with the Hokies. Don't like the fact that Clemson is even a possibility. He should be a VT lock with his family, but you never know. Does not help that we got thumped by Clemson twice last season. Guess we will find out tomorrow.

but I feel Trey has a good chance to beat him out as well.

Anything from the 2007 Clemson Game. What an awesome game.
Nebraska ending(especially if you can find Roth & Burnop's Roberts catch)
