    Virginia Tech - Club 216 Trash Talk Thread

    Lambert's not going anywhere. The biggest loss IMHO was the DT Brathwaite, who is a beast and probably our best DL. His grades are fine, it's said that he was short the requisite hours towards his major. The way UVA works is that he's got to leave for a year, which really blows (ie you can't...

    Virginia Tech - Club 216 Trash Talk Thread

    Grades. UVA has enough gut courses to carry a guy for a while, but just for a while. Just the way it is.

    Michael Holmes arrested

    Sounds like a ridiculous overcharge to me. It's a fight, and no weapons, so where do you get a malicious intention to maim, etc.? Overcharging is a big problem these days, and only gets fixed after the news articles have run.

    Official Off-Topic VT Thread

    46 - prayers given. Talk to your dad about MD Anderson Clinic in Houston. It's that good, and I have some friends and family members who've done Massey @ VCU, Duke, UVA ... and MD Anderson is a whole another deal. Best in the country, by far in my opinion. Good luck, man. Lost both parents...

    2014 UVa football commitments

    Nelson is just a sick DT. Think Warren Sapp. I think we're in great shape for Brown and pretty good shape for Nnadi. One should prep, tbh. Percentages are that it will shake out for a sweet rotation down the road, and that's what it takes to be better than good.

    2013 Recruiting List

    Every source other than in Blacksburg has Teller going to UVA, for what it's worth.

    Realignment Thread

    In looking at it afterwards, I think you guys are right. I think the deal will be a lot like it is now, with one permanent "rival" from the other side. Miami and FSU have to be in other divisions, probably NCS and UNC too. I guess the main thing in this hypo is the inclusion of Notre Dame...

    Who is Beamers replacement?

    Not to argue, but from an outsiders point of view one of the really amazing things about your staff, and maybe one of its greatest strengths, is how long they have stayed together with very very little attrition. But the fact of the matter is that the day will come when that will get broken up...

    If Notre Dame was in our league, all would be good. But with their own Tv deal, I don't see how it happens.

    Who is Beamers replacement?

    Not trying to provoke a fight, but BF will not be your next HC. In these "corporate" times, he is not a top tier "face of the program" guy. I see an SEC guy, a Big Ten guy. I'm not cracking on BF who is one of the all time great DCs. I think it would probably be a "name" coach, somebody who...

    NCAA grants Phillip Sims waiver to play for UVa in 2012

    Based on the observations of some very reliable sources close to the program, Philip Sims is as advertised. Team members comments are that he is the real deal, and is showing it every day working out with the receivers. The guy has an arm, and knows what to do with the ball. On time, every...

    July 14th Camp

    I hear that he has abscessed tonsils and is getting treatment in B'burg. I barely know what that means, but it sure sounds like not much fun. Also heard that he committed today, so you got 2 so far.

    Cite the source? Look, that was all original material, so you have the source from a lot of years of training. Like I said, run it by one of your buddies and only then come back on this one. Nah, VTFF, I'm not going to bite. There has been some conversation elsewhere. If you don't know, you...

    It doesn't know what state the people involved live in. eHow for legal? LOL. Let's just say that have some reason to know a bit more than eHow. Just a little bit .... Ask one of your legal boys about whether I am right or not, and let's see if you have the nuts to fess up. As to the...

    Deformation? LOL Yes, rules are the same. Exactly the same. If you "publish" a statement about someone either knowing it is false or with reckless disregard of whether it is true or not, you can be found guilty. Opinions are not defamatory, but statements of fact can be. If found...

    NCAA grants Phillip Sims waiver to play for UVa in 2012

    Sims is big time, and one of the most popular guys in all of the 757. He is going to be a magnet drawing even more of the elite guys from that region. The Hoos will only have 3 upperclassman QBs - Rocco - Jr, Sims - So, Watford - So, Lambert and Johns - Tr F, Marshall and Cutler - '13...

    Even you are right about UNC and UVA board talk, the escalation has happened here and in some other places. The point is that as the kids hear about all of this, maybe they'll laugh and shrug it off. On the other hand they might get kind of pissed off and spread that around. I don't think...

    The stakes have certainly been taken higher. While the vast majority of kids probably had no idea of the attack going on, it's safe to say they all will now in 757 at least. I guess I should say thanks.

    It's defamation, in case anyone's interested. The only difference is slander is considered a verbal form of it, and libel in writing. Doesn't really matter. The rules are the same.

    I can go on and on to be the last word. Unless and until somebody has something real, this is crap. And I'll tell you what, if there is anything solid to it, you won't have to find me.
