Thanks!
I'm not sure this is our biggest area of need, though. D-line, secondary, ILB, and O-line. All this is assuming Rocky will develop (if he ever gets the friggin chance!!!).
No shit man. You hear about how ol' Gregg Williams is such a hard ass but then you hear quotes like: "I would have left him in, but I didn't want his confidence to get hurt."

Adibi and Hall are awesome LB'ers for Tech. They have a chance to become one of the all-time great defenses Foster has coached so I hope he stays one more year even though he's eligible to enter the draft. At 220 lbs, I'm thinking safety (free?) in the NFL though unless he puts on more bulk.

Aaron Rouse imo might be a steal. This guy can lay the lumber along w/ Adibi and Hall (and others). I don't know anything about Rouse off the field.

i haven't heard much of aaron rouse but i would love to have xavier adibi on this team. If he declares for the draft i'd take him. Marshall isn't as good as he was last year and Adibi can play middle linebacker.

Adibi & Hall have said they're staying at VT!!
Rouse had a great jr. year & was expected to have a great sr. year, but didn't have the big plays of 05, plus there was the Boston College game in which he & Hall were shown arguing on the sideline.
He may have an attitude problem, but he's been a ball hawk in college. If available in later rnds, he's a steal as RedskI said.

X-Man is staying? I hadn't heard. That's great news! We'll take him with the last pick in the first round next year.

At least that's the last thing they both said. I'm a Hokie so I hope they stay, but after the bowl game on 12/30 they may change their minds (btw, the Chick Filet is on at the same time as Skins v. NYG, 12/30 at 8:00, serious dilemna!).
If Rouse has the speed for the nfl he would make a mean tandem w/ST! Both play well in the box or in cover 2.
