    I really like our chances guys! :thumbs

     

    From Huskerjournal.com:

     

    DECEMBER 4, 2008. PREP STAR

    JARVIS GILES, RB, 5-11, 175, 4.5, TAMPA (GAITHER), FLORIDA

     

    Jarvis at one time was committed to Tennessee. Jarvis explains what he likes about South Carolina and Nebraska.

     

    “Nebraska academics are good they have like a 96 percent graduation rate. I love the facilities, its top of the line. I’m mean everything was top of the line, nutrition, the food was great.” Giles said

     

    “Their (Nebraska) fans are once in a life time,” Giles said, “I went to the Colorado game, and their fans were absolutely outrageous. The stadium was loud it felt like the stadium was vibrating. I was saying ‘oh my goodness I hope this is not happening.’” Was the weather cold for the game, being from Florida?

     

    “Truthfully, I wasn’t really cold at all.” Giles said, “Like you would freeze there (Nebraska). Like you would need these extra coats and jackets. I’m like no man, I’m straight it’s not cold out here. You must be tripping.

     

    Giles thoughts about the Husker’s winning 57 yard field goal

     

    “A lot of recruits around me said he’s not going to make it. I could tell from his walk, he had a little swagger. I told them I think he’s going to make it.” Giles said

     

    “Bo is coming in to visit this Sunday,” Giles said, “I like Bo he is funny. I hit it off pretty good. We sat down and talked on my visit. He’s a cool guy.”

     

    “Coach Beck (Nebraska) is my recruiter, he’s a cool guy, and he’s nice, honest. You couldn’t ask more in recruiting.” Giles added

     

    Early playing time

     

    “Nebraska said I could play early, they showed me film. They said when I come in I would probably be third string and then try to work your way to first.” Giles said

     

    “I’m leaving for Florida regardless; there is just nothing to do here. The schools are equal right now.” Giles commented about distance.

     

    If Bo comes down this Sunday just blows you away would you consider (pick) Nebraska?

     

    “Yea, I would. You got to look at it, he’s (Bo) coming down this way. I’m going to look at both head coaches, who offer’s me the best deal.” Giles said

     

    “I liked South Carolina a lot I was down there for the Auburn game. I like the fan base, they get real pumped they love their football. It’s a football community. The facilities are great at South Carolina, academically they are good.” Giles said

     

    “Either school I get early playing time. Coach Spurrier is a straight up guy. He said I work hard, good ethnics, and he told me to keep it up. I wouldn’t mind playing for either coach, I wouldn’t mind playing for Bo and I wouldn’t mind playing for Spurrier. ” Giles added

     

    “Coach Spurrier is coming down tonight. I like Coach Spurrier, a lot of history, tradition behind him, he’s a good guy.” Giles said

     

    Tennessee in the mix?

     

    “Not really, the only reason why I’m considering Tennessee is because the running backs coach that is over there, but I’m going to narrow it down my choices Monday when I get all my home visits. It will probably be Nebraska and South Carolina. Then Tuesday I will have a little press conference at the school about 12 noon.” Giles said

    First of all, I love how the guy talks. :D

     

    And he is announcing at 12...perhaps indicating he's b12 bound? lol

    1st--Plan on playing 4 QTRS! VT has played 3 decent foes-GT, ECU, UNC-all of which have taken them down to the wire. VT seems to start slow and get much stronger in the 2nd half, their D especially.

    --2nd--Our O must hit the ground 'runnin'' and not let the foot off the gas. Use the pass to open up the run; we can't grind on these guys all day. Need at least 25 pts to win. Keep them off balance w play calling.

    --3rd--attacking D, force him to pass.

     

    Overall, don't get bogged down into playing Beamer Ball.

    Beamer ball is a myth! Its just a euphimism for ugly wins... <_<

    Our O definetely needs to pick up where they left off against NMSU, we have to contain Tyrod Taylor and force errant throws, turnovers, turnovers, turnovers.....

    I hope im wrong

    Oh yeah, Missouri looked awesome. Nothing like giving up 21 and fumbling 3 times against an opponent like Buffalo. Let's just hand them the NC trophy. Threads like this are getting old.

     

    :yeah Seriously old! "Ow we're so bad, we can't beat anyone in the top 50. Oh no we have nothing but a bunch of talentless walk-ons! Ow god what are we gonna do?" :ohnoes

     

    Damn I can't wait till we beat a few of these teams. Then everyone will say, "I knew we weren't as bad as they said!" "Saw this coming a mile away!""Told you we would beat Mizzou!"

     

    Have some damn pride in your team! I've heard guys in TX higher on our team than you "fans". To scared to be ...gasp... wrong? Grow some big red balls, and have a little faith in your team!

    You pretty much summed it up..thanks man
