I remember that class. I had real high hopes for them.

I kept up with Brown and Finney-Smith after they left. Wishing they had stayed. Looking at them now, here is what I found: Brown had a decent career at UAB Rankin did well at Queens Finney-Smith had a good career at Florida and is still in the NBA Barksdale enjoyed some success professionally overseas. Any idea why they couldn’t make it work at VT? Rankin probably wasn’t an ACC talent in the end, but I thought the other three were.

People didn't know David Robinson would grow 5 inches at Navy.**
OakHillHokie • 08/14/24 02:43 PM ET
He basically grew out of Navy standards, and couldn't do any...

Important to note Steph Curry wasn't 6'2 until he arrived at Davidson
GCHokie34 • 08/14/24 01:51 PM ET
I Understand that now, thank you for clarifying.
HokieKoch • 08/14/24 02:18 PM ET
Yep, our two "best" basketball classes in school history...

Yeah...

The other signee you are thinking of is Tyrone Appleton-Miller...

The equine remains deceased.**
Lancelot Link • 08/13/24 04:30 PM ET
Yes, but we must beat it periodically just to make sure it's good and dead**

The miniature pony has laryngitis. He's a little hoarse.**

A horse is a corpse, of course, of course. **

How true/ A few posters must enjoy smelling carrion.**

Hilarious scene in the book Red Sky at Morning. Did it make the movie?
TomTurkey • 08/14/24 02:51 PM ET
But only after it's been sufficiently tenderized. **

Munson committed to VT early in his junior year.**

Shows you how much I remember from back then😆**
HokieKoch • 08/13/24 04:11 PM ET
its not haunting us at all. Davidson, in this moment, does not have
proudhokie2001 • 08/13/24 01:09 PM ET
It dinged us from a donation $ standpoint
UpperQuad • 08/15/24 04:37 PM ET
Perhaps haunting was not the right choice of words
HokieKoch • 08/13/24 01:52 PM ET
247 didn't exist back then.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 08/13/24 12:09 PM ET
Thanks for that info, I did a bit more research
HokieKoch • 08/13/24 01:39 PM ET
Yes, I agree...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 08/13/24 01:45 PM ET
The fact that no Power 6 school wanted him and he ended up at Davidson is
