What did he cut his list down to? Who is the competition?

He is waiting to make his top 5 soon but said that VT and Penn State will def make the list.

Nice, VT has an old player as one of his coaches I believe so we do have an in, hopefully we can get him on campus. If we could bring in him, Caleb, and Smith the WR corps would be awesome this year!

He had kind of dropped off of my radar and would be a gigantic steal for us. I am loving our new recruiting philosophy. A solid receiver who is not a "project" would mean a lot. I like Lockhart and Smiling a lot and think Reeves will eventually end up on the outside but Knowles and Asante are a bit unproven.

I think that Asante will turn into a pretty good receiver, Knowles is definately a project but with that speed, you can't knock the coaches for the pick up. You can teach a lot of things but you can not coach speed

Oh yeah, I LOVE both signings because they both project well and have fantastic attitudes. I just like having a couple bigger, over the middle types as well that have loads of experience at that position.

Looks like UVA picked up a 4 star Mike Moore. Don't look like we were courting him but is another good pickup for London..UGGHH!

 

[Chrish1023]

while i dislike UVA getting recruits as much as the next guy, we have done far better recruiting for 2012 than they have. and the guy's dad played for UVA so this can't be that much of a surprise

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Yeah he was UVA all the way.

 

[bigesse16]

We didn't offer because we knew we had no shot with his dad at UVA.

 

[vtpoop]

Any of you guys remember his dad? Shawn Moore, he was a heck of a QB, but we hammered UVa his senior year when the Cavs were ranked No. 1 in the nation.
His favorite receiving target was Herman Moore, a big-time wide receiver that played in the NFL for several years. The hilarious thing about him is he wanted to come to VT, couldn't get in because of the math requirements, and instead settled for UVa. Pretty hilarious considering the academic BS UVa fans like to spew.

 

[vtpoop]

Micheal Moore, huh? Maybe he can make a documentary on why UVa football sucks so bad.

Ok, I didn't realize that was S Moore's son. That totally makes sense then. He was a good one back in UVAs glory days. Herman was a good one too as well as a pretty good one in the NFL

Rivals just released some of their offensive ratings:

Millweard, Jackson and Nixon are all mid-level three stars (5.6, where 5.8 = 4 star)

Also Manning bumped up to a 5.7 was a 5.6 I believe

 

[bigesse16]

He was a 5.7 from the start. He was one of the first three stars who were fringe 4 stars (5.7 rating). Although he should be a 4 star anyway.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Manning and Tookes should both be 4* by the end of the season.

 

[EvanGWatkins]

Agree, I also think Millweard will be a 4* by the end of the season.
