WTF ESPN Dave Hooker says "VT's success is fading into the past"

  • copied from the Sabre and couldn't resist

    Dave Hooker
    Blanding's pledge a strong start for Cavs
    "Virginia has more to sell than (head coach Mike) London. A top
    university, the educational offerings will lure prospects. Virginia is
    also the state school, even if it seemed Virginia Tech took that spot
    with its recent football success.

    That success, however, is fading into the past. Long gone are
    Michael Vick and a national championship appearance. The distance
    between the two programs doesn't seem that far any longer. Virginia
    was 4-8 last season in an obvious rebuilding year. Tech was 7-6 and
    barely beat the Cavs, 17-14.

    Recruiting wasn't quite as close. Tech finished the year ranked No.
    20 in the nation. Virginia was No. 34. Blanding will help the Cavs
    close the gap."

    Hooker has clearly been hanging out and pulling tricks at Club 216 with London and his tight black tshirt crew. Idiot.

  • Somebody please get this to VT coaches. We thrive on this type of stuff.

  • So if last year was a rebuilding year, what will an equal or worse record this year be? Rebuilding year #2? Even though this should be just about all London's recruits now?

    More off-season nonsense. Lets see what happens when people put on pads and start hitting each other.

  • yes it's true that we "barely beat the Cavs" last year, but what Dave Hooker, whoever he is, fails to mention that London's idiocy gave us the game. Seriously, the guy can't coach.

  • Tech is more on the rise than on the decline... We just needed better recruiting and Offensive Coaches that can help Bud Foster... We have that now....

    I guess he must have missed the fact that we've beaten them 12 out of the last 13 years.

    We have one down year after 8 straight 10-win seasons and all of a sudden "VT's success is fading into the past"?

    I wonder if he offered a similar opinion when Alabama went 5-7 in 2007.

    LOL! What an idiot.
