Trey Edmunds Injury Check In
Just got to talk with Ferrell Edmunds (dad/coach of Hokies Trey and Terrell) about the new potential Hokie in the family, Tremaine, and couldn't resist asking about how Trey's leg was feeling.
He said that he thought Trey is about 90% right now, which seems about in line with what everyone in the program has said so far.
He also added he'd be a full participant in the team's preseason practices.
So not surprising news by any stretch, but still nice to hear about a guy that could take the offense to another level next year.

When did you first notice a decline in the VT offense?
We all know the VT offense has never been a consistent juggernaut. We've had ups and downs but Beamer has always seemed to prefer a ball control offense first and not necessarily seemed to worry about constantly have big threats that can score from anywhere, anytime. And I don't think there's anything wrong with it, Beamer has won lots and lots of games with his philosophy.
But...I remember a home game vs. Syracuse. Might have been 2001? We lost. Something like 21-14? The whole game the team just couldn't run the ball. I remember a few goal line stands by Syracuse where we just couldn't stick it in.

New Players' Heights and Weights
It looks like Hokiesports has updated the heights and weights of new enrollees. That obviously means it's time to read way too much into this new information!
Yes, I am also excited.
Check it out here
Notes from 1st read through:
1. Mihota is listed at DE again.
2. DJ Reid is bigger than I thought he'd be (229lbs).
3. They incorrectly list Bucky Hodges at 6'6" when we all know he is well over 8' by now.

How do you smuggle booze into Lane?
With all the excitement about recruiting misses, upcoming season, etc., I figured I'd try to start a more light-hearted discussion about drinking. Specifically for games at Lane.
I've also seen some pretty creative ways to smuggle in the good stuff. Was wondering what everyone's favorite methods are, and what their favorite things to smuggle in are. I've had zip-loc bags of wild turkey taped to my legs, airplane bottles in my shorts, or even stuffed in the toes of my boots (bought cheap oversized walmart boots specifically to have extra space!).
And for those of us that are more advanced smugglers, I recently found some more ideas, such as:

Holiday Inn Express for VT/Ohio St
Anyone else book the Holiday Inn Express & Suites @ OSU for the VT/Ohio St? Just got a letter from their GM stating scheduled maintenance is set to occur the weekend of the game and my reservation has been moved to the Hampton Inn, a good 13 miles from the stadium. Huge bummer - got the hotel because it was cheap and relatively close to the stadium. Anyone else in the same situation?
