Lately, you seem awfully confident that he is going to flip Hohum.

His name is ho hum, after all...

Lol. I've been using this internet alias since 1998 right after VT lost to Temple based on this Frank Beamer quote....

"Sometimes I think when you get momentum early in a game you let up a bit," Virginia Tech Coach Frank Beamer said. "It looked like things were going our way and it was going to be a ho-hum day, and then we started to play ho-hum."

It wouldn't shock me if he flipped. But that would suck..especially after he was one of the first to commit and as long as he has been committed. If he had planned on staying in-state then he should have opened up his recruitment again.

TG has strong ties in that area and at that school. I think he is being pressed hard by his coaches to goto VT. We shall see, but I think he stays a Hokie....

Looks like Beamer and Co. have cured our kicking and LB concerns at the same time!

 

[hokiegrad]

Beamer has to be drooling over a kicker that can tackle...

found this: Joey Slye | Kohl?s Football Kicking Camps, Punting Camps, and Snapping Camps

the stats don't blow you away, but it is high school... I'm sure Beamer has a couple things he can teach him.

are we sure we want that now though? special teams haven't exactly been stellar the past few years..

The stats actually do impress me....compare those with the kicking stats of VT kickers the past two years!

"Avg KO distance: 65.52 yds, avg Hang time: 3.61 sec". I'd like to see a little more distance here, but it is an average. The fact that he can tackle would greatly help the kickoff coverage. Too many times do I see a kicker trotting along setting himself up to be out of the play so he avoids any contact.

I was really referring to this: "PAT: 36/40 - FG: 4/7 long 45 yds - Punt: 38 yd avg".

New word on Drew Harris?!?... I thought we were done with him, but are rumors swirling for VT to land him again?!?

I know we have some good RBs coming in but based on the last two seasons, the more the better to get VTs running game were it used to be. Of course the Oline has to take some credit there also though.

 

[Moseph]

My bad, i just saw my last post was moved to the 2012 post.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

I would seriously doubt it. Marshawn, DJ and Shai it is.

Any thoughts on Vrabel leaving affecting Jalyn Holmes with Ohio State? Does this open the door at all?

Apparenly he tweeted "no comment" after the news came out, but then deleted that and said:<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>I got a brotherhood with my fellow commits especially with <a href="https://twitter.com/Kwon_daTRUTH">@Kwon_daTRUTH</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/JDStandAlone">@JDStandAlone</a> &amp;<a href="https://twitter.com/DameWebb">@DameWebb</a> we got a mission together GO BUCKS !</p>&mdash; QBKILLA!!! #⃣1⃣1⃣ (@JayHolmes_) <a href="https://twitter.com/JayHolmes_/statuses/421424381550919681">January 9, 2014</a></blockquote>
