Q: How good is VT's O line?

We were handed our hats a bit on our D front. Can we expect more of the same from Virginia Tech?

I haven’t watched much of VT, but what I have I kind of get the impression that Harris is similar to DeAngelo Hall…jumps a lot of routes, but gets quickly fooled on double moves. Harris looks athletic enough to recover against a lot of WRs when he guesses wrong though. Is this a correct read on him?

Also, who is your best WR outside of Harris and do you think that is the reason for the passing games struggles or is it more Taylor not being ready? Along the same lines, do you believe it was a good idea to take off Taylor’s RS?

Late again

I always seem to miss this — if it’s too late to add these, I certainly understand. Again, I’m not as proficient on the X’s and O’s ….

1) Florida State has seen its share of divisive quarterback controversies over the past few years — how did the early-season QB situation in Blacksburg affect team morale. What effects of that remain?
2) What is the feeling in Blacksburg about VT being in the ACC — is it generally considered a no-brainer that this was a good move? How has the rivarly with UVA been affected, if at all?
3) How is Taylor being directed when it comes to running vs. passing. Is his scrambling to passing percentage where the coaches want it?
4) Back when VT and FSU were independents, they actually played each other quite often (esp, in the 70s if I recall) in games that were notoriously close and often quite exciting. Given that history, do Hokie fans see FSU as a friendly, long-time rival, or does the Sugar Bowl memory still overwhelm any other history?
