Bucky Hodges - Highlight Videos, Schedule & Roster - Hudl

new Bucky video .. looks really good .. not nearly as big as Logan and has a bit of a weird throwing motion (IMO) but much quicker-footed and has a much better, softer "touch" than LT3.

Bucky's size is very comparable to what LT's was when he first stepped on campus.

With the coaching changes at so many schools in our footprint (NC State, Tenn, Kentucky, Arkansas and maybe Auburn) Are there any recruits who would want to reopen their recruiting process and possibly come to VT? I noticed that there is a 3* TE from Danville VA who went to the same HS as D-Will. There are a few other NC State Recruits we may want to look at as well as the WR from Tenn.

Bucky looks like a beast!

The ship is pretty much full at this point unless someone wants to take a greyshirt. This is a very small senior class. I think we will wait on Dasean Hamilton and maybe MAYBE throw out one more offer to an OL, and that will be it for 2013.

Yep. Pretty quiet until a bigger picture shows who will prep or take a GS. I think we get 1 WR and 1 more OL just imo

What 46 and Evan said. Besides, I don't think Kentucky, Arkansas, or Auburn have any commits that would really consider us. And guys who would back off their commitment due to a coaching change would probably not be anxious to commit to VT when we're likely to have our own coaching changes... at least on the offensive side of the ball, which is where we could use a couple more recruits. The Tenn move may help us with North, but I think he's likely going elsewhere. The NC State move may help us keep Moss.

While it's unlikely that any of Auburn's commits would consider VT, a bunch would consider Alabama, which may affect their numbers and make it tough for them to steal any of VT's recruits.

What is the latest on OL Jon Mclaughlin?? Looks like he is looking at VT and UVa now.

Also, I know it has been brought up many times. But anything new on Dillon Christopher? What were his stats for the season? Any chance he gets a late schollie offer?

When is Hamilton gonna commit? Where do we stand with him? Seems like his and Michael Parker's recruitment has dragged out alot, with no real signs of interest towards any one school. Despite Parker's supposed interest from other schools.

Also saw that Demetri McGill committed to the Terps about 10 days ago.

I thought Michael Parker had grade issues, and probably has to prep or go the juco route in order to qualify.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Yeah, we are NOT recruiting Parker and haven't been for quite a while. Hamilton is visiting the week before signing day, and I am cautious in my optimism on him. McLaughlin is showing more interest in UVA and VT.

 

[EvanGWatkins]

As of now we have 2 guys enrolling early in Osterloh and Carlis Parker. Deon and Kendall are coming in the summer.

Yes there are plenty of red flags.

Dillon is still being recruited. Dillon talked to Newsome last night. He is coming to Menchville today to see him. )

Also, he had 6 FGs this year, off the ground. I may not be exactly accurate with these numbers but I do know only one was in the 20's. 25, 33, 36, 38, 43 & 47. He has multiple TBs and had 23 points of the 97 points his team scored which is 24%. I know sad numbers for the team. In one game we scored 35 points so you can see Menchville does not score much. Which means over the other 7 games we only scored 62 points. He had to deal with a lot of adversity - dropped snaps, new holder mid season, blocked kicks but through it all he still remained positive. Dillon has not even come close to reaching his potential. You put him on a real team that works out every day and actually practices special teams on a regular basis, I can only imagine what he will be able to do. With that being said, several schools are actively recruiting him but his first love is VA TECH.
