Football Transfers and Attrition

[vtfan15]

There are rumblings VT could be a landing spot

Yeah. Seems like at this point people are only bringing it up because Loeffler recruited him to Florida (apparently?).

 

[Hokie Swagger]

my thoughts exactly. don't need him. won't be able to play next year im assuming and dont think hes good enough either way.

 

[vtfan15]

He graduated so he can play for one season without sitting. But I agree, we don't really need him.

QB Tyler Murphy becomes the latest to transfer from the Florida Gators - ESPN

 

[HoHumHokie]

VT must land Nnadi.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Not unexpected. That awesome D Line haul from a couple years ago has turned out well.

Of course we got Big Lu and the Predator!

Agreed. I saw him a bit and wasn't overly impressed. It's not like he's a Russell Wilson type transfer. I'd much rather toss in one of the freshmen and deal with the growing pains

 

[Rocco]

Murphy's good games were against Arkansas, Tennessee and Kentucky.

 

[HoHumHokie]

Any updates on Corey Marshall's status?

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

He gonna be gone.

 

[vtfan15]

He gonna be gone.

That REALLY sucks. Outside of about 8 players or so that 2011 class was a complete disaster.

 

[HoHumHokie]

Here are the 11 of 21 players from the 2011 class "still" on the roster. I thought we had already lost Goins and it sounds like Marshall is gone too? Is Roth just along for the ride or does he stand a chance at getting playing time aside from Special Teams?

 

[hokiegrad]

Goins missed the season with back problems. The original news that he was gone was quickly changed to just out for the season with the possibility of not making it back. We'll have to wait and see there.

I keep hearing that Marshall is gonna be gone.

I think Roth has a decent chance of getting some playing time next year, with what we're losing from ahead of him, but we'll have to wait and see there as well. He'll be competing with a lot of other unproven guys.

 

[HokieNut20]

Biter said Marshall's status has yet to be decided.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

From what I have been told by pretty reliable sources it is decided. I would love to be wrong though.

 

[NickVT10]

So with us losing 3 starting DL, Marshall not coming back, does Teller/Smith move back to DL?

Edit: 3 starters to graduation. Marshall likely not coming back, Harley transferring. That is 5 DLs lost in 1 year. Nnadi just became ever more important.

 

[Sleepy T]

Definitely. Nnadi, Walker AND Sobzcak may ALL get some PT next year.

 

[SPHINX06]

I stil like Mihota to be good. remember before the other day he was the star recruit between he an SS

 

[hokiegrad]

I don't see anyone moving back to DL from OL.
