Because we're all Sunday morning quarterbacks.

Can William & Mary really challenge VT on August 30th?

According to many sport analysts, William & Mary will test the Hokies young offense and keep the game close. I know that Ohio State is the marquee game on the early schedule, but, lets hope the coaching staff is not overlooking the Tribe.

Hokies in the Pros

Since I'm sure most of you don't have time to Google every single player on Andy Bitter's list, here's an update on how every Hokie is doing in camp thus far:

James Anderson, Patriots: Anderson signed a one year, $950,000 contract with New England this off season. He's projected to fill an apparently much needed role as a coverage linebacker on passing downs. Barring injury and assuming he plays up to expectations in the preseason, he will most likely make the Patriots' 53-man roster.

The Steelers waived Danny Coale injured today and signed another wide receiver from the Pittsburgh Arena Football team.

how the sec matches up against ranked opponents

My friend from SC posted this and I found it really interesting that they've had the most success against ranked opponents in the conference.

Also! I'd like to point out that Georgia's record is about as bad as ours against top 10 as is Missouri and several other schools.

David Wilson Appreciation

In light of the terrible news about David Wilson, I thought it appropriate to have a David Wilson appreciation thread where we can share our best/favorite memories of one of the best backs to ever wear the O&M. It can be anything - favorite play (VT or pro), some kind of personal interaction with him, favorite sound bite, etc. He's one of my favorite Hokies and I'm sure many of you feel the same, so let's honor him with as many comments as possible. Shoot, with the way TKP has blown up (congrats on the press creds!) maybe the thread can get back to him and give him something to smile about.

Flight to Columbus from Blacksburg area

Saw a tweet a few days ago that there were flights for students to columbus that were only like $126 roundtrip. Anyone remember seeing anything about that or have a link? Tried to backtrack but couldn't find anything. Trying to get to Columbus to see us beat the Buckeyes.

Other First Practice Notes

Hey all

I crammed a bunch of stuff into my recap of the team's first practice, but there are a few things I wanted to get in there that didn't really fit.

When the media asked Beamer about the news that David Wilson would be hanging it up, he said he hadn't heard that he was officially retiring from the game, and seemed pretty down about it.

Dirty Martellus Bennett Body Slams Kyle Fuller (LINK)

Kyle Fuller went to make a play at Bears practice on Monday and Martellus Bennett took offense and body slams him. ESPN is reporting he has been fined and suspended for conduct detrimental to the team.

No need for stuff like this. He could have seriously injured Kyle who is playing extremely well for the Bears and a key cog for their secondary this year.
