It is mostly about de-railed threads. The usual suspects are getting shit cut from threads for being repetitive, no contributing zilches.
National Signing Day: Cavs' Mike London looks beyond high school coaches to cultivate Virginia Beach pipeline - The Washington Post
"Coaches from both the 757 Sports Academy and the Virginia Thoroughbreds said they have a minimal role in recruiting, not wanting to overstep their players’ parents or high school coaches. But London and Virginia assistant Chip West exchanged at least 420 calls with Snead on their school-issued cellphones from August 2012 to August 2013, according to documents obtained through an open-records request."

Carson Cutler said the programs’ coaches were once on good terms with the Hokies and former offensive line coach Curt Newsome, but the relationship deteriorated when assistant coach Bryan Stinespring, who had previously recruited the Tidewater area for Virginia Tech, returned to the region in 2011.
Stinespring “came in here all cocky,” Cutler said. “When Newsome wasn’t getting the guys that they felt they should get, Bryan basically came in and said: ‘This used to be my area. He don’t know how to work it.’ Basically threw him under the bus.”
You are right, no need to go there again. But with West gone and London likely not to far behind. I will be interested to see which the direction these recruits are steered once the transition is complete. It likely won't be VT... and that is unfortunate considering only a few of those kids (from year to year) will get very serious looks from out of state schools.
Where did West go?
My fault...I thought he went with Franklin to PSU???
Either way.. do you see VA continuing to be this successful in 757 if West and London are canned here in a year or two?? Assuming Tom O'Brien and Tenuta are running things??
Wouldn't surprise me to see the whole staff terminated once London is canned.
