Could be why we're rumored to have offered sleeper DB Mike Tyson out of Norfolk.

#Hokies SS Antone Exum also watching at camp, looking like a TANK. Says he's up from 215 to 225. Squat up from 385 to 410. "I'm ready."

If he still has the same speed and quickness, LOOK OUT!!

He will be laying some lumber this year. Great news on Diggs. Would be nice!

Only a matter of time probably until Alston Smith officially commits to VT. Bruce said his son will likely announce before his h.s. season.

Werent we slow to offer Crawley(i could be wrong), then prob didnt recruit him the hardest with Manning and Tookes already on board, now for some reason it seems like we need another DB (i wonder if there is some serious wavering between tookes and manning?) and now Crawley seems to be the best available. What im getting at is: I wonder if "slow playing" crawley early is hurting us now that (apparently) we need him, with his offer list it may be hard to make up that lost ground.

Take a look at David Wang's tweeds. He had something funny but it is hard to cut and paste from phone.

Any info out there as to how well Will Smith is performing? Or if Haynesworth looks like he could earn an offer. I'd love to start adding to this OL class.

If the rumors are correct,

*Greg Pyke got an offer sometime before camp started.
*Jonathan McLaughlin got an offer today.
*Benedict was also in town being evaluated.
*From KT: G Trenton Saunders, T Will Smith and G Ty Hayworth seem to be impressing today at camp.

Six OLs who have received offers or appear to be somewhere in the process of receiving one. Not bad...making progress.

More from KT:

Several O-line prospects have been told VT's coaches will meet Tuesday to decide which new OL will get offers. Not sure any got on today.

Class of 2013 QB Bucky Hodges from Virginia Beach says he grew up a VT fan and "they will always be at the top" among his college choices.

Can confirm those

Great to hear about Mclaughlin. Do any of you guys know anything about him?
I've heard a little here and there about Saunders and quite a bit about Smith, but i'd be interested to hear some opinions about Haynesworth and Mclaugghlin.

I wasnt in panic mode because i figured the offers would come today and maybe even a few more later in the week, but it is extremely relieving to finally start seeing some progress.
