Recruiting News | |||||
This Week In Recruiting It's very much a waiting game in 2011 football recruiting. Virginia has 24 commitments in total, with two of those prospects - Hampton (VA) quarterback David Watford and Phoebus (Hampton, VA) linebacker Daquan Romero - set to enroll next month. And I'll check back this week with H.D. Woodson (Washington, D.C.) tight end Darius Redman, who wanted to enroll in January as well, for the latest on his status. At this point, head coach Mike London and company are in wait-and-see mode with respect to the remaining top targets in the class. Gilman (Baltimore, MD) athlete Darius Jennings made his second official visit this past weekend, when he traveled to Ohio State. He took an official to UVa the previous weekend and plans to take official visits to Wake Forest, UCLA and Virginia Tech in January before making his decision. Bayside (Virginia Beach, VA) cornerback Demetrious Nicholson could be the next to commit, though that's been the case for several weeks. Nicholson, a 5-9, 165-pound shutdown cornerback, is considering taking officials in January. He has already been to Stanford and UVa. This week, I hope to have more on Irving (TX) defensive end Horace Arkadie, a 6-4, 225-pound senior. Arkadie reportedly was scheduled to have an in-home visit with Mike London last week. He is also considering Arkansas, Kansas and Purdue. I'll have a "Countdown to Signing Day" article coming up soon, where you can get the latest on these top targets and more as the march toward the Feb. 2 Signing Day continues. On the 2012 front, I'll have article on Centreville (Clifton, VA) linebacker prospect Ken Ekanum and Northside (Roanoke, VA) tight end Dakota Jackson this week. Ekanum, a 6-3, 230-pound junior, has been offered and is one of Virginia's early top targets.

News, Notes, and Fan Discussion | |||||
Blog Banter: Blair's Top Five Bowl season has officially started (still waiting for the Panera Soup-in-a-Bread Bowl ...) and for the third season in a row, my beloved Hoos are home for the holidays. It's hard not to feel some of that December Depression, watching other ACC teams and random schools compete for the glory of being named the San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl Champion or any of its equivalents. Although Virginia wasn't bowl eligible this year, the 2010 season had its share of highlights. I'm going to pry myself away from the debacle that is the Washington Redskins game this Sunday afternoon and count down my five favorite moments from this football season. 5) Four Wins! 4) Terence Fells-Danzer scores on a fake field goal. 3) Robert Randolph scores on a fake field goal. 2) Colter Phillips scores his first career TD. 1) The Miami Game. You also have to mention Coach London's first ACC win, and the team's first upset of a ranked opponent since 2008. The students stormed the field after strong urging from the players, and London fell to his knees on the sidelines in jubilation (although he'll tell you it was a result of exhaustion and skipping breakfast). The Miami win was pure magic, and a moment I'll remember as a Hoo fan for the rest of my life. You can read more on The Good Ol Blog by clicking here.

SabreMail History | |||||
Issue No. 72 - January 31, 2003
Two UVa football players named to ACC All-Academic Team University of Virginia football players Matt Schaub and Shernard Newby are among 33 players named to the 2002 Atlantic Coast Conference All-Academic football team as announced by ACC Commissioner John Swofford. To be eligible, a player must have earned a 3.00 grade point average for the fall semester or have maintained a 3.00 cumulative average during his academic career. Schaub was named the ACC Player of the Year last season after guiding the Cavaliers to a 9-5 record and a #22 ranking in the final Associated Press poll. He led the conference in passing efficiency and finished sixth nationally. He set or tied at least 10 UVa single-season records, including touchdown passes (28), yards passing (2976), attempts (418), completions (288), completion percentage (68.9), total offense (3071), total plays (488), 200-yard games (8-tie), 300-yard games (3-tie), and consecutive games with a touchdown pass (14). Newby led the team with three interceptions and finished his career tied for eighth in UVa history with 11. He made 50 tackles, the second-highest total of his career, this season to finish second among the team's safeties. His 188 career tackles are eighth all-time by a UVa defensive back.
