King entered the portal **
OrangeHokieFan • 01/18/23 04:33 PM ET
I think he is our most talented loss so far.
Flanker • 01/19/23 11:42 PM ET
I don’t. His flaws will be flaws at pretty much any P5 program.
marcbvtgm • 01/20/23 04:17 PM ET
We'll see how it plays out.
Flanker • 01/20/23 07:31 PM ET
We’ll see how what plays out? And who said Chatman was more talented?
marcbvtgm • 01/23/23 12:04 PM ET
I disagree completely!
Flanker • 01/23/23 04:16 PM ET
That’s great that you think that, but facts say you’re simply wrong.**
marcbvtgm • 01/24/23 10:55 AM ET
Well he didnt stay for competion
Mercury • 01/20/23 07:59 AM ET
Competition exists on every team.
Flanker • 01/20/23 12:56 PM ET
He had a 10,2 YPC against Duke
VaTechHokiesACC • 01/21/23 12:18 AM ET
That was one game with a different OL, a different gameplan and a diff day
Flanker • 01/21/23 01:01 PM ET
I disagree, I take more experienced staff n power 5 than Fuente clowns
Mercury • 01/20/23 02:18 PM ET
Fuente at least had Bud Foster's crew for the first few years.
Flanker • 01/20/23 03:25 PM ET
Tuten is much better and fits the offense as well

hokierevisionist • 01/21/23 11:26 PM ET
Put me down for delusional, then. King would help
justolerable • 01/23/23 01:43 PM ET
Tuten played in different league behind diff OL and in diff scheme
Flanker • 01/20/23 12:53 PM ET
Assuming a competent offensive staff, he would have been a really good
BG Hokie • 01/20/23 09:27 AM ET
Never assume a competent offensive staff at VT.**
NokieHokie • 01/20/23 10:07 AM ET
Good player leaves, let's just poo poo his skill set by default to make
BG Hokie • 01/19/23 12:35 PM ET
Not every example is the same **
VaTechHokiesACC • 01/21/23 12:09 AM ET
Give it some time on King...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/20/23 09:26 AM ET
Buh Bye. Competition makes stronger individuals and teams. Don't want to
91HokieBob • 01/22/23 12:50 PM ET
Sounds like the discussion Fu had with Hooker**
AirborneHokie96 • 01/20/23 09:30 AM ET
No, that one was much different
OrangeHokieFan • 01/20/23 12:24 PM ET
I don't know the QP story but was told the HH story by a staff member
AirborneHokie96 • 01/22/23 09:44 AM ET
was this going to be an old fashioned internet duke it out? **
whatIpostlike • 01/23/23 12:26 PM ET
BTW: Are you ready for sectionals?
AirborneHokie96 • 01/20/23 12:28 PM ET
Maybe Fu should've looked inward to his recruiting/evaluation/leadership...**
NokieHokie • 01/20/23 10:08 AM ET
No one hits 100% on recruiting. Eval seemed fine **
AirborneHokie96 • 01/20/23 10:17 AM ET
Lol you can't be serious.......**
hokierevisionist • 01/21/23 10:48 PM ET
You disagree that the eval on Hooker was incorrect?
AirborneHokie96 • 01/22/23 09:43 AM ET
Never said, nor implied, that he or anyone else should hit 100%...**
NokieHokie • 01/20/23 10:18 AM ET
He infamously skipped a practice freshman year to hang with his girlfriend.
BG Hokie • 01/20/23 09:29 AM ET
He was probably the most talented raw player on the roster **
hokierevisionist • 01/21/23 10:49 PM ET
Yes, he was.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/20/23 09:31 AM ET
Bingo! Ka-Boom. Kids like that don't make or last in the NFL either.**
91HokieBob • 01/22/23 12:52 PM ET
His skill set wasn’t really an issue. But his durability was.
marcbvtgm • 01/19/23 09:43 PM ET
Ball Security
Gorgerat • 01/20/23 05:19 PM ET
King and Wells pretty much lost us the GT game **
OrangeHokieFan • 01/19/23 11:42 PM ET
I wouldn't blame King for the loss.
Flanker • 01/20/23 12:59 PM ET
Wells had 3 TO’s I’d definitely put it on him
OrangeHokieFan • 01/20/23 01:33 PM ET
100 percent the case***
sacramento hokie • 01/21/23 05:07 PM ET
That fumble with 57 seconds left was HUGE.
Flanker • 01/20/23 03:19 PM ET
He was maybe our best back, but he stayed hurt & fumbled. I hate to see ->
HOKIERIT • 01/19/23 08:54 PM ET
Yup,predictable.HH was a bum who didn't practice well...Tre Turner?Too slow
HokieBrazil • 01/19/23 01:12 PM ET
Tre may not have been your best example..he was waived by the Raiders->
HOKIERIT • 01/19/23 08:57 PM ET
That's unfortunate...always thought he wasn't given enough reps
hokierevisionist • 01/18/23 08:51 PM ET
Had alot of upside, but it’s injuries and key mistakes which limited it.**
marcbvtgm • 01/19/23 09:45 PM ET
I think they TRIED to use him. He got hurt a lot and fumbled a lot! **
HOKIERIT • 01/19/23 09:33 AM ET
and with all that was still our best playmaker!**
BG Hokie • 01/19/23 10:27 AM ET
Yes he was...says a lot doesn't it?**
HOKIERIT • 01/19/23 11:08 AM ET
That may be why the coaches switched gears on O in midseason**
VTCALS72 • 01/19/23 06:07 PM ET
Certainly had to be a big [part of it..THAT, and no new WRs stepping up->
HOKIERIT • 01/19/23 08:44 PM ET
IMO, the poor offensive line performance had as much to do with
jboyhokie • 01/20/23 05:56 PM ET
says we need more players like him, not less.**
BG Hokie • 01/19/23 12:36 PM ET
We need more guys with his talent. We need less guys with his work ethic,
GusDaMan • 01/20/23 10:01 AM ET
Well Said** ◄
Gorgerat • 01/20/23 05:20 PM ET
Always liked him, but he had injury and fumbling issues. DONT need that!**
HOKIERIT • 01/19/23 08:47 PM ET
KK is too small and not durable enough to be a featured back**
BROman Hokie • 01/19/23 08:14 AM ET
Unless you're VT 2022 and "maybe" 2023**
BG Hokie • 01/19/23 09:14 AM ET
Well, KK missed a few games and only led the team in carries in 3 games...
BROman Hokie • 01/19/23 11:57 AM ET
He averaged 6 yards per carry. Durability issues are most likely chalked up
BG Hokie • 01/19/23 12:31 PM ET
except when your "injuries" are more of the "I don't feel like playing"
GusDaMan • 01/20/23 10:03 AM ET
Fair enough, being a 180 pound RB in major college football takes its toll**
BROman Hokie • 01/19/23 01:52 PM ET
Yeah, I thought he stepped up last year after risking to become a forgotten
BG Hokie • 01/19/23 06:43 AM ET
A always liked him despite durability and fumbling concerns**
HOKIERIT • 01/19/23 09:34 AM ET
If he can stay healthy, he should get those at his next stop. **
VaTechHokiesACC • 01/19/23 05:35 AM ET
if he could stay healthy he wouldn't be moving on to the next stop**
GusDaMan • 01/19/23 12:31 PM ET
Maybe, hard to assume that these days **
VaTechHokiesACC • 01/19/23 06:49 PM ET
In the portal era? That's a pretty dubious proclamation. More likely, if
BG Hokie • 01/19/23 02:35 PM ET
My point wasn't about who else WOULD want him, it's about how much we/VT
GusDaMan • 01/20/23 10:04 AM ET
Blind speculation**
HOKIERIT • 01/19/23 09:00 PM ET
Exactly my point.**
BG Hokie • 01/20/23 09:30 AM ET
A big part of that was he was almost always injured. Just about every game
AbsolutVT03 • 01/18/23 11:36 PM ET
He had fumble problems**
capitals1 • 01/18/23 08:56 PM ET
I knew somebody was leaving.
VaTechHokiesACC • 01/18/23 06:55 PM ET
Is timing now so this semester funded by scholarship?**
HokieDelNorte • 01/18/23 04:58 PM ET
Good question. Probably so **
OrangeHokieFan • 01/18/23 04:58 PM ET
Wait. Thought he was moving to the slot. Oh wait we got 23 wrs inbound **
3TechFanz • 01/18/23 04:48 PM ET
Way better WRs than last year
OrangeHokieFan • 01/18/23 04:58 PM ET
Some wr will leave after spring. They won’t like how far down on the depth
Hokie`79 • 01/19/23 09:25 AM ET
No reason with the top 2/3 won't stay
VaTechHokiesACC • 01/19/23 06:51 PM ET
3
OrangeHokieFan • 01/19/23 11:44 PM ET
A little disappointed he's leaving, but I wish him well.**
EDGEMAN • 01/18/23 04:38 PM ET
Hope he does well
OrangeHokieFan • 01/18/23 04:40 PM ET
Yeah, wish him the best but not a huge loss. Be interesting to see where
Fatman • 01/18/23 07:58 PM ET
And seemed to have a fumble issue also.**
hokie77 • 01/18/23 05:01 PM ET
The fumble issue is a problem. Bad fumbles **
