Best Rookie QB so far is......Logan Thomas
Ron Jaworski was just on SportsCenter and was asked who the best rookie quarterback of the preseason was so far and he named everybody's favorite TE, Logan Thomas. He gave him an incredibly positive review, even going as far as saying he looked like definite All-Pro material in the future. Nice to finally hear that other people are beginning to see what most of us already have.

Jaws on LT3
Not sure if anyone else saw this and I have no clips, but Jaws was just talking about rookie QBs on ESPN and said Logan looked better than any of the rest. Even said "looked like a future all-pro."

If Woody Baron is unable to play and redshirts due to his offseason right ankle surgery, then Tech will most likely end up playing a true freshman DT in its two-deep.

Hokie Club Picnic: Whit Gets It
Yesterday, I decided to finish off my summer properly and go check out the Hokie Club's welcome back picnic. I was not disappointed, even with the rain keeping us off the field. First off, a tip of the hat to Outback, as the food was pretty darn good. The rest of the event was very well set up. There was a little ticket/parking pass raffle and a silent auction with some nice goodies. The main event, of course, was a little talk from some athletic department staff and coaches, including an introduction of all the freshmen and newcomers, followed by an autograph session. Here's what I picked up from my time in Lane.

Despite the optimism in VTs camp, the Hokies seem to have many doubters.
