Hokie Nation Continues to Hate on Sean Glennon

Former Virginia Tech QB Sean Glennon has seen some ups and downs during his collegiate career. He went from being named MVP of the 2007 ACC championship game to riding the pine during his final game in the 2008 Orange Bowl. He took the reverse path from what most QBs take. In 2006 he threw for an impressive 2,191 yards; in 2007, his passing numbers dropped to 1,796; and in 2008, his passing yards plummeted to 743 total yards while...

The NCAA Strips Florida State

It’s official. The Florida State Seminoles will be forced to vacate 12 of its wins, five from the 2006-07 season and seven from the 2007-08 season. As part of the NCAA’s punishment, the school will be required to forfeit any trophies won during those seasons.

Other teams facing sanctions were men’s and women’s...
