Ok, my computer problems have been fixed (for real this time) and I just updated the front page (with old information).
The Billy Hayes and Wheeler Brown interviews will be posted shortly. I've got to transcribe them again.
Tell me what have I missed since I've been away.

You need to add this kid to our signee list because he will have a major impact: Mijuan Curtis RB/WR/RS/DB Roanoke (VA) William Fleming (2005 1st team "Associated Press" and "Virginia High School Coaches Association" All-State All-Group AA as a junior and 1st-team "Associated Press" All-State All-Group AA as a soph as a KR! 1st team All-Region III as a defensive back during the 2003-04 season.) Height: 5-foot-7 Weight: 165 pounds 40-yard dash: 4.4 seconds Vertical leap: 31 inches Seems like the kid is a gamebreaker in the big play market: This kid is rated a five star prospect as an all purpose back by Max Emfinger, a top high school national recruiting analyst. This kid scored a ton of TDs every kind of way possible last year (23) and 25 the year before that. He's one of those hybrid guys who can line up about anywhere and do just about anything because of his speed and elusiveness. www.maxemfingerrecruiting.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=243&Itemid=2

Just updated it.
BTW: Where did we find that guy and why did he sign with us?
Sounds like he has more credentials than a kitchen drawer has utensils.

We snatched him up when the D-1 guys wouldn't sign him because of his height. We had to fight off Hampton and Richmond in the end for him. He never considered any of the many D-II offers he got. It basically came down to three things in our favor - academics, better facilities, and available playing time early.

Think he'll be redshirted?

I don't think so, I think he's more than talented enough and certainly fast enough to play as a freshman as the main kickoff and punt return man and as a reserve wideout or soltback. Chaz Dawson will most likely get the redshirt now, who is from E.E. Smith in Fayetteville, since they are essentially the same type of player.
Curtis is just more advanced physically at this stage.
