Has anyone found any live coverage for other recruits (such as Caleb), similar to the Washington Post one for Ekanem?

Bunches of tweets out there saying that Tomlinson will be going to Alabama, which leads me to believe that Kirven => Tide is out

But a statement like :
.... A couple of those guys they recruited, I know I can beat out easily.

No point in making too much of it -- but I don't think anyone contending for a starting spot will be laying down .. Kirven + Ekanem = possible future sick leg of a nasty defensive line. We're gonna need them in a few years when we start playing these Big10 offensive lines.

Kind of a cocky statement, but at this point let him believe that if it gets him to committ to the Hokies!

For anyone interested, here's the link to the Hokiesports page for tomorrow. I know the Hokies SportsHoopla page will be tweeting up a storm and so will all the beat writers, I'm mainly just posting this because they have little blurbs up about JC and Donaldven.

5'7" 170 lbs and 5'9" 155 lbs. I know they're gonna be good ones, it's just kinda funny seeing little guys like that.

You want your players to have some cockiness, I suppose, right?

Saw that comment, too. They won't give up their spot on the DT pecking order without a pretty good fight.

I assumed he was refering to the other incoming DT's....N.Williams, W.Baron, and A.Smith.

Any new news on the Big 3 anyone?? It may be quiet until tomorrow. I am predicting a 3 for 3 sweep. Everything I have read indicates we have Ekanem and that Caleb/Kirven it is 50/50 and kind of leaning our way. Surprisingly, it seems to me that Caleb has said very little during this entire process.

What is it looking like on Blue? Miami currently has 32 signees! They can only sign 25 for any particular year right?? The others will either have to count towards this past year or greyshirt, correct?? If this is the case I find it unlikely they will offer Blue a ride for this year. I think he will turn out to be very good, but if we lost out on any of the LBs..I would rather it be him than any of the rest.

Edit: I think I am following you 46!!!

You mean swagger? Wait... is "da []_[]" only allowed to call it that?

Haha, but in all seriousness I'm with you, I love those kind of statements. I'm excited for some new blood to change up things and end the complacency.
