we shut down Darren evans last year
They also have no proven recievers
I just dont see it
Tyrod will be the best offensive player on the field in that game.
I said best offensive player, there is a difference.Originally Posted by lowslows

This aint your 05-07canes...we acually have threats on offense now.
We have one of the if not the best WR corps in the ACC and a good trio of Running backs
You point out growth and potential...dont yout think all our freshman will be a tad bit better this season?
Dont you think Jacory might have grown as a player in the off season?
aint no arguing the coaching...Beamer is better period
But havin Jacory, Aldarious, Spence, Mrob, Benjamin, and Bryd a year older is SCARY
And i aint even mention Forston, Streeter, VT....
VT could easily pull out the W but its not the lock you guys claim...

I honestly expect the game to be a blowout. We're most likely going 1-3 in the 1st four but we will dominate the Chokies. Bank on it.
Not really. New OC, New DC. Unproven talent. I don't have any hopes. I just know we're gonna beat VT.Originally Posted by The Wizard
you expecting to go to Blacksburg and blow them out?
you must have high hopes for the Canes this year..

Agree, should be a blowout.
Q: From Sean in Las Vegas: Why is Penn State consistently referred to as "Linebacker U" when its credentials don't merit that title ? especially when you factor in NFL resumes? Florida State should be "Linebacker U." Sam Cowart, Peter Boulware, Kendyll Pope, Derrick Brooks, Marvin Jones, Henri Crockett, Ernie Sims, Tommy Polley, Reinard Wilson, Lawrence Timmons, Kamerion Wimbley, Alonzo Jackson and Everette Brown played at Florida State, and Nigel Bradham is the next great one.
A: Florida State's linebacker alumni list is impressive. But Penn State was known as "Linebacker U" before Florida State became a national power.
Since 1969, Penn State has had 13 first-team All-America linebackers, and that doesn't include Matt Millen, who was named All-America as a defensive end before moving to linebacker in the NFL. The Lions' linebacker list includes Jack Ham, Ed O'Neil, Greg Buttle, Shane Conlan, Andre Collins, LaVar Arrington, Paul Posluszny, Lance Mehl and Dan Connor. Actually, I'd say Penn State's list compares favorably to Florida State's.
Bradham may be FSU's next great linebacker. But Penn State this season will have Sean Lee and Navorro Bowman, who both have All-America potential.
Lots of programs have a history of producing talented linebackers ? USC, Oklahoma, Ohio State and Texas A&M come to mind. But Penn State's past and its present give credibility to its designation as "Linebacker U."
FOH
PSU =/= Linebacker U.
Not saying FSU is, but it isn't PSU anymore.

Armstead, Barrow, Lewis, Morgan, Vilma, Williams..........
Let's not forget Nate Webster, who was an absolute monster at UM, and has had a fine pro career. Darrin Smith as well. Miami is continuallyoverlooked as a Linebacker U candidate.
Dude was probably reaching to throw out as many FSU names as he could, to try and tilt it in FSU's favor.Originally Posted by GUNNA GET IT

FSU fullbacks evaluating futures
Written by Heather Dinich/ESPN.com
FSU fullbacks Marcus Sims and Seddrick Holloway are both taking some time to evaluate their futures at Florida State, offensive coordinator Jimbo Fisher said on Thursday. Holloway was excused for some personal issues, but neither has been suspended or are in any trouble. They're both just evaluating their futures, what their roles are and where they want to be.
"Marcus is evaluating what he wants to do," Fisher said. "He's making some decisions about himself, too. He's just at a time in his career, so we'll wait and see how it goes."
A source said Sims is considering transferring to North Alabama, where Preston Parker landed after being kicked off the team. It makes sense, as they will play for Bobby Bowden's son, Terry Bowden.
Overall, though, Fisher said he's the most excited about this team since he arrived on campus. He said he loves their work ethic, and he's seeing a whole new attitude.
"You see a group that's tied together," he said. "Our attitude is tremendous. It's the best since I've been here. Now we've got 11 bowl teams to play, so I don't know if that equates to a lot better record, but I like our chances and where we're going. We're going to get there very quickly."
Fisher sounded especially excited about tight end Caz Piurowski, who will be more involved in the passing game this year and should be a much bigger factor now that they don't need him to help out the offensive line. He also pointed out players like Tavares Pressley and Ty Jones who will help the team take the next step.
The receivers, he said, have learned from their mistakes and he's noticed a difference in their attitude. Their grades are up, they're making better decisions and they understand the consequences of their actions.
Word is that Marcus is set on playing TB/RB, not HB/FB and doesn't like how it's looking for him next year. Where he would be the starterat FB and the Main back in Short yardage situations (providing he held on to the ball). Sed is just too big and coaches are unhappy w/ that.
Matt Dunham (if y'all remember him, broke one of Hershel Walkers records I believe) came back to school this summmer and would have a crack at the spot. Tobad he's at least a good 270-275 and in our 40 Yd dash testing last year, he ran like a 5.1.
Other Notables that y'all might (But probably don't) care about, Dekoda ran 4.39 & 4.43, Bert ran 4.30 & 4.34, Nigel B. ran 4.49, Huddy ran a4.9, Jermaine Thomas ran 4.49, Jajuan Harley ran 4.30 ans 4.31. Of course take these numbers w/ a grain of salt. Or a cup if you prefer. Timing was hand startbut laser finish.

I have never been a fan of Harris. He lived off the talent at MNW and was nothing but average last year. Maybe it's unfair but it's just my opinion. Your WR's won't matter if Harris can't get them the ball. Jacory is still a young QB who can be confused, Bud Foster is the best DC in CFB.
Yes Miami will have players improve and I love their young talent. But there is still a ton of youth on that team. Will their improvement be enough to match VT's overall team, I don't think so. And will those improvements come at the key positions Miami needs?
And to the person saying there was a reason why Tyrod was going to be redshirted. Beamer tried to buy an extra year of Tyrod. RS him and get another year of him being the sole starter. Glennon couldn't do that so they needed his playmaking ability.
Did you watch VT at all last year?
To say Tyrod will be the best offenive player on the field next year is truly laughable..
He aint even betta than Darren Evans who BEASTED last year
and yea i guess a 170 pound true freshman who leads his teams to two comeback wins on the road is not impessive
mind you, this is all with him coming off the bench cold in the 2nd half
Tyrod had a 2-7 td to interception rate last year
Please tell me what he bring to the table to mention him as the best offensive player on the field
