Team Status?

Is there any news regarding the Men’s Basketball Team?

Who are the starters?

Who are the team leaders?

How are the Freshman and transfers progressing? Are they good shooters, rebounders, defenders, passers and/or teammates?

Have the holdover players improved or stepped up?

Articles could and should be written on all these subjects. Is there anyone out there who could opinion on this?

Halftime thoughts on V-Tech

Just happy I didn't pick them again.

-First drive on defense - and most of the first half - was embarrassing in terms of tackling. Losing Arnold obviously doesn't help but the LB group is just way too thin and haven't been good in the run game since Duquesne.

-Tommy Turnovers at it again. At some point, you almost have to go to James for the principle of constantly turning the ball over. It won't happen, but it should if he continues. The first fumble was him literally just dumping the football away, it wasn't a pitch attempt. Fumbled exchange is on both he and Robichaux.

-Where is Reed Harris and McGowan? Biggest receiver aside from Bradley and the fastest kid on the team. We see them in practice (albeit once a week), so it's sort of mind boggling to not see them get opportunities.

-Eagles do have 77 yards rushing and it's the one thing they've done well really. The offense is moving the ball to an extent (134 total yards, VT has 332), but just burying itself again getting behind the chains.

-Back to the run defense. 188 yards in the first half and an 83 yard TD run is embarrassing.

-Punt unit has been good, defense just hasn't made the field position matter.

-Not much else to say other than it looks like the Eagles are on the way to 6-6 and The Pinstripe Bowl

Michigan State roll call

It's finally (almost) hockey season! Who is heading to Michigan for our first two?

Friday night hockey, Saturday morning half marathon, then Saturday night hockey should make for a great trip. But icing on the cake - gotta find a way to jump over to Ann Arbor to pace their marathon Sunday morning!

Hopefully I'll be able to get back to Boston for the Sunday afternoon game against Maine a few weeks later. Tight squeeze with a New Hampshire marathon early that morning!

Go EAGLES!

Hightower on DePalma

Completely forgot to throw this in here when I posted Sunday morning. Talked to Hightower a bit more on Thursday regarding Vinny's role. Basically just trying to figure something out for bye week content to keep the bosses happy.

Back to regularly scheduled programming on Monday, which is the only day of media/open practice this week with the team heading to Blacksburg on Wednesday.
