He was stating that it was no loss. Kayl came to VT when VT needed
players to replace those who left and those who committed and never arrived. She gave a good effort and played in difficult situations. I see no need to bad mouth her. Maybe those who leave read this board and believe they are under appreciated. As a VT grad, I appreciate anyone who wants to play for VT and thank them for wanting to be a part of the good guys. Therefore I too believe the statement was hateful about someone who was trying to help the team in any way, and that effort and dedication should be appreciated if you are truly a Hokie. I guess some of you cannot help yourself.
