Still no official word from U.Va. on the hiring of Bob Pruett , but the more I read about his hire , the more I like it. Pruett was a head coach for Groveton and Gar-Field High Schools, both in Northern Virginia before he moved on to being a coach at...
There's nothing official yet, but according to the Daily Progress , former Marshall Head Coach Bob Pruett will return from retirement to lead the Cavalier defense. Some quick facts I've gleaned in the hour or so since I learned of this: He was...
A week into February and I don't think I've quite gotten over January. January was not a good month. From the problems with the football team (falling apart at the last minute to Texas Tech, academic casualties, Mike London leaving for UofR, a...
After my post yesterday about Gibbs's departure having the potential to eliminate pro sports from my life altogether, I read an interesting bit of news today: The Redskins have apparently signed former UVA wide receiver stand-out Billy McMullen ....
I stopped paying attention to the redskins around the time Joe Gibbs left the 'skins the first time (though it had nothing to do with his departure). I picked them up again as a pseudo-favorite (although I still claim a mild hatred for pro sports...
People have asked me why I haven't posted much anything about the Gator Bowl. I just really haven't had much to say. We played very well. We still lost. Bummer. Another Sewell injury where, if he hadn't been injured, I fully believe we win...
I had better not blog about this game too often , but the Holiday Bowl just had one of the more strange happenings I've ever seen. The Arizona State QB was almost sacked, but instead made some kind of play (its debatable whether he fumbled, lateralled...
I could only read the stories about FSU and Tennessee so many times without really wondering when we'd hear something about our own players. It seems like every year we get a bit of bad news around bowl time - though this is certainly not something...
Mike Ingalls (the fan formerly known as BoardHost) just made a rare post to TheSabre's Good Ol' Blog talking about why the fans should be supporting the team for this bowl game instead of belly-aching about a myriad of other issues that do not...
The local NBC station (NBC29) reported last night that a poll on their website asked why people were not going to the Gator Bowl this year. As of right now, here are the results: The trip is too expensive - 24% I'm upset about the new Scott Stadium...
Vandy-Hoo linked to and preserved a great posting on TheSabre by LoyalHoo. I enjoyed it so much, I just wanted to make sure all three of my readers saw it.
I don't normally talk about our football commitments unless there's some real specific reason to do so. But in this case I'm making an exception. Groh and Co. landed a verbal from Rod Wheeler, a 6'4" 240 pound TE from Highland Springs...
I want to catalog these achievements in this post because I like to be able to refer back to them. I'm sure they're all listed in other places, but I want them on my own site so I can easily find them. As an aside, did you know Chris Long has...
I've got a lot of friends asking me for information on the bowl game. And now, thanks to TheSabre , I have a place to point them to for all of the information.
I don't really have much to say about this quote , in part because I think it speaks for itself, but I wanted to preserve it here on the blog so I would always know where to find it. "The chief theoreticians behind the modern athletics rivalry...
