    1. We have already offered 7/ top 10 in state…those other 3 have said no VT interest.

      We should go after any one we like – no reason no too! GO HOKIES and GO CJF!

  3. I am not optimistic about getting any of these guys for numerous reason. Having said that, I like the old saying “you never know what you can do unless you try!” 😉
