Recruiting News | |||||
This Week In Recruiting With Chris Horne The University of Virginia football program played host to more than 20 official visitors this past weekend. There were 19 verbal commitments on Grounds, but there were a few targets as well. Throughout this week, I'll have updates from the big weekend. A "Sabre Scoop" article will provide initial news and reports on the subject. On the EDGE board, news is already up on commitments Kirk Garner, Andre Levrone, Jr., Eric Smith, and Connor Wingo-Reeves. One of the main topics addressed is new defensive coordinator Jon Tenuta, who has drawn positive reviews so far from recruits. "He seems like a real tough coach, which is what you want, especially on the defensive side of the ball," Wingo-Reeves said of Tenuta. Smith, an offensive line prospect out of Georgia, seemed very excited about his first ever experience at UVa. He had verbally committed prior to the visit but came away very impressed. Following the weekend, it appears as though Fork Union (VA) defensive back Malcolm Cook is solid in his commitment to the Cavaliers. He posted on Twitter that he was closing the door on recruiting and heading to UVa. I plan to have more with Cook as soon as possible. Stay tuned to the EDGE Board for any new news and reports, today and throughout this week. As Feb. 6 Signing Day approaches, I'll have a series of "Strategy Session" articles focused on how Virginia has recruited certain positions in the past, the impact class of 2013 recruits may have on each position, and look ahead to where the focus of 2014 recruiting may be. Those articles will begin this week. Chris Horne, our resident recruiting expert, provides updates throughout the week for EDGE subscribers about UVa's commitments and recruiting targets in football and men's basketball.

Issue No. 370 - Dec. 1, 2008 Monroe Named Jacobs Blocking Trophy Recipient Official Release, Virginia Athletic Media Relations Virginia's Eugene Monroe has been awarded the 2008 Jacobs Blocking Trophy, Atlantic Coast Conference Commissioner John Swofford announced today. The Jacobs Blocking Trophy has been awarded annually since 1953 to the player voted the most outstanding blocker in the ACC by a poll of the league's head coaches and defensive coordinators. The trophy is given in memory of William P. Jacobs, who served as president of Presbyterian College from 1935 to 1945. A first-team pre-season All-ACC selection this season, Monroe, a 6-6, 315-pound senior, was an Honorable Mention All-ACC selection at tackle in 2007. A two-year starter at tackle for the Cavaliers, he was the leader of a young offensive line which has given up an ACC-low 14 sacks this year. "The honor of being the Jacob's recipient means a lot to me," Monroe said. "It is one of the goals I set out to reach two years ago. It is a reflection of not only my work, but my coaches who helped guide me, teammates who push me everyday, and family back home who has been a supporting cast through my journey. My career has come a long way, from being a backup my first year, overcoming set backs, and being able to achieve this award." Monroe has started 29 games in his career for the Cavaliers, and this year earned the highest blocking grade in seven of Virginia's first 11 games. He earned Honorable Mention All-ACC honors as a junior last season. Read SabreMail No. 370 here. |
