I don't give a second of thought to UVa except the one weekend a year we

play them. I'm amused at the fascination with many Hokie fans comparing VT to UVa as if winning that comparison means anything. We've thoroughly dominated them for nearly 25 years. I do believe it's past time for VT to set it's sights to something a little higher. To that end, we should have had at least one QB, RB or WR drafted in the first or second round in the last 10 years. I sincerely hope that Pry has a vision of correcting that as soon as possible. Let's be competent on O and work towards excelling. Then we don't have to worry about tools like Teel lumping us in with the inferiors.

David Teel tweets VT/UVA have had no RBs drafted in 1st 2 rds for a decade**

Stupid tweet. Most RBs are NOT drafted in Rnds 1-2 anyway, so duh

Brady obviously has had an impact in the NFL, but are there any RBs from

I saw him play in Beaver Stadium and thought he would be very good

Will StewartAdmin • 05/01/23 08:13 PM ET
How many RBs have gone in the 1st 2 rounds in last 10 years? Maybe 50?**
marcbvtgm • 05/02/23 12:38 PM ET
QB # > RB # and WR # > QB # + RB #
GOML • 05/02/23 09:07 PM ET
So “maybe 50” was actually way too high…**
marcbvtgm • 05/03/23 11:06 PM ET
Have no idea why Teel thought restricting his 'NFL Draft Musings' ...
GOML • 05/01/23 08:55 PM ET
I'll add that if Teel wanted to continue with his state P5 ...

$1,600 a year?
tallahasseehokie • 05/02/23 04:01 PM ET
Not a typo. $1600 a year is correct.
ChrisLords • 05/02/23 08:04 PM ET
Why not just take $1600,

GCHokieof91 • 05/01/23 09:53 PM ET
MAJOR steal. Might turn out to be a Tom Brady-level draft steal.
