i have no clue but there have been rumors circulating for a while that someone had a huge injury. Maybe it is just a sprain and they don't want to release official info until they know for sure.

7/23/2007 2:23:33 PM

no worries guys

marcus stone is the backup TE

he saw this coming a long time ago obviously

o god

7/23/2007 2:33:43 PM

we have NO depth at TE

Stone
Kushner
Armstrong


Hannah coming to state would be looking real good for us right now

7/23/2007 2:36:21 PM

State boards saying VT
VT boards saying State

7/23/2007 2:55:34 PM

Awwwwwww here it goes

im hearing its VT but who knows at this point

7/23/2007 3:02:52 PM

^ Looking like VT, but I question the validity of the source, should be soon now

7/23/2007 3:04:36 PM

update? a credible one? Anyone got the Gravis hookup?

7/23/2007 3:29:07 PM

there is still like 20 minutes until the presser

7/23/2007 3:32:39 PM

I'm watching ESPN-U and they have a replay of the U-20 WC, still in the 74th minute.

7/23/2007 3:33:14 PM

ehhh.... dammit... 20mins of work I might as well do while I wait.... ehhh...

7/23/2007 3:35:02 PM

On Pack Pride, people are saying he walked in wearing VT gear

7/23/2007 3:55:21 PM

any non-alias witnesses of this?

7/23/2007 4:00:52 PM

^its true. Supposedly his mom was wearing VT colors as well.

Oh well, if he does pick VT, which it looks like...fuck him...hes the enemy now

7/23/2007 4:02:17 PM

it could just be like the presser with Demario Pressley a few years ago where they had all the different schools' hats in front of him before he chose...

7/23/2007 4:02:18 PM

I don't think I've ever seen people get so crazy about a 3 star prospect... and yes I know "stars don't matter," but damn.

7/23/2007 4:04:03 PM

its VT

7/23/2007 4:05:04 PM

damn

7/23/2007 4:05:16 PM

its all good....if he does pick VT he can become a thug...and then Jay Smith can beat his ass everyday going down the field

or he can pick NCSU and win 10-12 games a season and not have to look at Beamers neck

7/23/2007 4:06:26 PM

oh well

7/23/2007 4:07:02 PM

i cant belive 850 the buzz isnt on this kind of shit

7/23/2007 4:08:03 PM

whatever. He can take his ACL injury over to VT and sit on the bench his career like george bell.

oooh....

I remember Bell was supposed to be the "next T.A. McClendon"... well we see what happened to them both now, don't we? I was really dissappointed he picked VT and put that hat on, I was watching that live at the time....

7/23/2007 4:11:28 PM

^can you believe that just months later, Andre Brown was on the same show and picked NC State? Man, how that one worked out? Hopefully the same things happen again

7/23/2007 4:12:29 PM

Not so fast guys .. I have yet to hear any kind of real update...

His ACL seems to be fixable, but if my source was correct, he still WANTED to come here ... even with an offer contingent on healing correctly ... I mean, if it didnt heal right, do you really think VT would still honor that scholly?? Not likely, and I am sure he knows that.

Right now, he is probably banking on it healing, and deciding based upon that.

7/23/2007 4:13:19 PM

All this noise about a slow 3* safety with an ACL injury?

Damn, who cares

7/23/2007 4:14:13 PM

who is that doucher on PP saying he saw him walk into espnu with a VT hat?

He's gotten everyone over there fired up and I've never even seen him post before. People will believe anything. If VT is saying its NCSU, and NCSU is saying its VT, then I think we should wait for the official. I'm not surprised if its vt though

7/23/2007 4:15:49 PM

rivals says its VT.

7/23/2007 4:17:50 PM

VT board on Rivals is breaking it. Whitley to VT. The dude saw what he saw, which seems to be correct.

7/23/2007 4:18:15 PM

K now you people can cry..oh well.

7/23/2007 4:18:41 PM

everyone gets hopped up about any post by anyone over there, then come to tdub and it turns into 'pp has video of him walking in wearing a vt uniform'

7/23/2007 4:19:08 PM

good lord, I don't think there was this much drama over Baker or Pressley, our 5 star guys, one of which will play on Sundays and one that has a great chance with a decent OL. Was there something I missed here?

7/23/2007 4:20:24 PM

On to the next PC!!!!!

7/23/2007 4:20:56 PM

i think that he had a presser for it makes it seem like a big deal. imo, it isn't.

7/23/2007 4:21:14 PM

^^^^ we are all so bored... what else is there to pay attention to.

7/23/2007 4:24:52 PM

^ uh, the WNBA obviously

7/23/2007 4:27:44 PM

^ Good fundamentals

7/23/2007 4:30:16 PM

i'm beginning to think that this presser on espnu was a giant hoax.

edit: well they just said it's coming up, so there you go.

7/23/2007 4:33:03 PM

here is the link to the official

http://tinyurl.com/37ws8e

7/23/2007 4:34:34 PM

man he looks uncomfortable.

7/23/2007 4:38:32 PM

^ Ya, I would be... he's still thinking about Beamer's neck talking to him in his sleep

7/23/2007 4:50:58 PM

Who of the three freshmen failed to qualify?

7/23/2007 5:47:57 PM

Justin Whaley
D. Ellis
K. Linney all didn't qualify

G. Miller and A. Vogt to transfer and Gavin SMith dropped out of school



Anthony Hill is perfectly fine and not injured

7/23/2007 6:43:03 PM

That sucks about Ellis. I think he is going to be a good player. Are they all headed to hargrave?

7/23/2007 6:56:37 PM

Linney is the only one confirmed right now

7/23/2007 7:28:04 PM

now we have to really push for Mannig

7/23/2007 9:03:22 PM

^tru. and manning would be the better pickup, yea?

7/23/2007 9:22:29 PM

yes, Manning would be a much better pickup since he is regarded as top 3 in the state and we need all the LBs we can get

I haven't seen this posted up yet but here's the ESPN Top 150
http://insider.espn.go.com/ncf/recruiting/tracker/espn150?season=2008&action=upsell&appRedirect=http%3a%2f%2finsider.espn.go.com%2fncf%2frecruiting%2ftracker%2fespn150%3fseason%3d2008

Barnes at #23 and Glennon at #59

Only 3 other NC kids made the list after Barnes: Spencer Adams (#39), Dwayne Allen (#62) and Braden Hanson (#78). Kind of curious to see where Manning would end up on this list. I'm surprised he's not on there.

7/23/2007 9:28:19 PM

Gerard Miller? Isn't he a senior? How can he transfer?

Avery Vogt was a pretty sought after LB in high school right? We have 3 starting seniors this year and there would be plenty of playing time next year. Why would he leave?
