Spring practice starts today. Amen. Let's take a look at who's leaving, who's back and who needs to step their game up.
Adios Amigos
Offensive Skill
| Name | Position | Receptions | Yards | Touchdowns |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Greg Boone | TE | 7 | 75 | 0 |
| Sam Wheeler | TE | 2 | 30 | 0 |
| Kenny Jefferson | FB | 1 | 7 | 0 |
| Player Totals | 10 | 112 | 0 | |
| 2009 Totals | 137 (7.3%) | 2391 (4.68%) | 14 (0%) |
As you can see from the table above, in terms of production, we don't lose much. However, you can't quantify what we did lose. Kenny Jefferson has been doing work in the running game since '07. He pounded defenders like a jackhammer and he's partially responsible for escalating Ryan Williams through the stratosphere towards deity status. Greg Boone came to Blacksburg as a quarterback, ate a small village and destroyed everything in his path regardless of where he played. The Wild Turkey won't be the same without him.
Offensive Linemen
Last year's offensive line, like a slow setting Jell-O, took a long time to congeal. To me the individual parts were greater than the whole. Even though Wang could be a first round draft pick and Render has a chance to play in the league I'm not devastated by their loss.
Josh Oglesby is moving to fullback, per HokieSports. Good move for him since he wouldn't have had many carries this year at tailback. Glad to see he's willing to do whatever to help the team and I hope he succeeds.
The Mike London regime is right on schedule. After some initial recruiting buzz the first year coach and athletic department are reaching out for the support of Hooville.
"It starts with getting our state back," Oliver said. "I've said it on the radio, and I'll say it again: I have a lot of respect for Virginia Tech and what they've done. That doesn't mean I have to like it.

...And Ed Wang won Outstanding Offensive Lineman. That should put the 2009 offensive line into perspective.

Hello friends and welcome to The Key Play dot com.
Why, you ask, has this website taken over your Internets today? The simple answer is Hokie football. As far as my eyes are concerned, maroon and orange are the two most beautiful colors in the world. I love, to the point of an unhealthy obsession, Virginia Tech football.
What I'm going to do.
