LB Michael Short enters transfer portal

Looks like we're losing another one. He transferred in this season from UNC and has played in all of our games thus far, tallying 21 tackles and a sack. Don't know how bad this hurts, but LB is definitely a weak spot in our defense.

Best of luck to him. I don't think he was going to be a part of VT's football future.

I wish him well, but thank god. He was a big part of the problem on defense, and the fact that he was still getting reps showed how weak the room is.

And, if you think the future is bright, Brett Clatterbaugh played. I have heard good things about Noah Chambers, but I don't think he has played yet. 6-0 220 still has room to grow.

Does this mean a rotation of Keller, Spencer, and George Ballance? Not great, Bob.

Five star get after it 100 percent Juice Key-Playing. MAN

Clatterbaugh was playing at end against wofford wasn't he? Does he not project as a linebacker at this level?

Wait how did he get in at End we have like a million of them

End... sorry. My brain short circuited typing my post. Yes, he was at defensive end. So, basically they have Spencer, Keller, Noah Jenkins, Noah Chambers, Gabe Williams (great story who played some, but needs to get well) and Will Johnson, and Santiago who has not shown much on the roster. Woodson is out, but given his troubles and no indication of what the injury is, I wouldn't be shocked if he is in the queue for the portal.

could be cutting and pasting this quite a bit between now and the end of the year

A loss from the standpoint that we don't have any depth to fill his place.

Best of luck, but clearly wasn't going to be part of the solution @ VT.

Bye short, I won't have to watch you dance with the opposing teams guards for the rest of the season. Dude couldn't get by a grandma's block.

He should take up skating.

21st century QBs Undefeated vs UVA:
MV7, MV5, LT3, Grant Wells, Braxton Burmeister, Ryan Willis, Josh Jackson, Jerod Evans, Michael Brewer, Tyrod Taylor, Sean Glennon, and Grant Noel. That's right, UVA. You couldn't beat Grant Noel.
