The Joe Moore Foundation for Teamwork announced today 20 Semi-Finalists for the 2015 Joe Moore Award, given to the top offensive line unit in college football.
The Joe Moore Award units are judged solely on six (6) criteria: Toughness, Effort, Teamwork, Physicality, Tone Setting, and Finishing. Evaluations are made primarily through review of actual game film and, as there are no current statistics that support the award criteria directly, statistics are provided merely as a point of reference.
The press release had this to say about the Hokies' offensive line:
Virginia Tech (5-5) – For the Hokies O-line unit, statistics definitely do not tell the whole story. For a variety of reasons, Virginia Tech has played 14 different Offensive Lineman this season. Despite this, as well as playing without their starting QB for much of the season, game film shows that the Hokies offensive line has exhibited the Joe Moore Award criteria this season and are clearly well coached and give great effort.
Congratulations to our men in the trenches and Coach Searels for efforts that are clearly getting noticed.

Great to hear! I hope our OL coach next year can get our OL on the watch-list again
All of us TKPers say DUH!
Thanks French.
Regardless of the new HC, this might let Stacy keep his job.
Does Fuentes scheme support Searels' coaching techniques?
How far we have come.
who would of ever thought this would come out of a 5-5 season. Proud of our O-Line!
You misspelled 8-5
You had one job, Offensive Line Award Press Release Writer.

Well I would look and see how many penalties Wyatt Teller has gotten for planting dudes 5 feet into the ground and getting called for unneccessary roughness or whatever. I'm it's frustrating but at the same time makes you proud.
