Week 11: Virginia Tech vs. Florida State (Nov. 8, 2012) Coming to a Lane near you

Logan Thomas just baffles me. He throws a perfect touch pass then forces a crossing pattern (twice) for interceptions. The offense pretty much goes and comes with him because the RBs had trouble getting the edge and breaking tackles all night.

Defense was playing well but we just don't have the talent right now to win the game solely on defense like in the past. Special teams has been bad all year except for the punter and few good punt returns by Jarrett. ST is really missing Justin Meyers, who hit touchbacks when the kickoff was 10 yards back from what is was now.

I agree.

LT has a lot of potential, but he's inexplicably inconsistent. Unfortunately, without a running game, he's the whole offense. The line isn't good enough to make just any running back look good.

Just read that the only reason Holmes didn't get in the game was because of an undisclosed injury. And here I was thinking that they had wisened up

Wow. I can't understand.

 

[sparko]

that is absolutely pathetic and inexcusable

 

[Lumbee09]

Wow... some of those runs really could have been busted open if he just put down half a block. He doesn't even try blocking on most of those clips.

 

[ckhokie]

10 games into the season and this is still happening? Totally inexcusable for a SR. It's really a shame, with the physical tools he has, if MD had any sense of work ethic, he could be one of our best WRs ever.

 

[VTfoozball]

Unfuckinbelievable. Does he realize what sport he's playing? Does he think it's 2 hand touch?

Holy shit that video is making rounds. Currently getting retweeted by Trent Dilfer, Deadspin, Smart Football, among others. Maybe Davis will get his act together now.

Bench him. If WRs dont block, they dont deserve to play.

I mean fuck, it would be one thing if he was just bad at blocking. He doesn't even look interested in what's happening on the field.

With 2 (maybe 3) games left in his college career? I don't see that happening.

Wholeheartedly agree.

 

[sparko]

Yeah this video is going viral on twitter...sad but he deserves the criticism and so does the coaching staff for allowing him to start all season...he may be our best playmaker but sometimes you have to sacrifice to set an example...this is the epitome of what is wrong with this program right now

RT @ChrisLangLNA #Hokies WR Demitri Knowles (LCA) said he was told by WRs coach Kevin Sherman that he'll start Saturday at BC.

Marcus Davis definitely earned his place on Deadspin.

Wow. He needs to get his head into these next couple games and show that he at least will try to block or he will submarine his draft stock. No NFL team will want that kind of effort.

What really bothers me is he watched Coale and Boykin block so well for 3 years and apparently learned nothing. 90% of WR blocking is simply putting forth the effort and he can't be bothered to even try.

I think its apparent he didn't watch.
