Gilbert Smith from GC to UVa

Neal McMeans from GC to UT (All-American)
Bill Houseright GC to VT (All-American)
David Wells GC to William&Mary

That's a few that have been missed, may be a few more.
Re: Local College Players
Oh, by the way Randy Jenkins from Pennington Gap played QB at Kentucky. I am sure there are several other kids from the area we've missed.
Gray Hagy from Thomas Walker to VT i think.
Re: Local College Players
Spivey was listed in the media guide as was the other four Gate City boys. He was also dressed for media day but did not scrimmage in the afternoon because of bruised ribs. He will try to mix it up on Saturday's scrimmage but will definately be at work on Monday! Isaiah looked great and has worked hard this summer to get where he is!
Re: Local College Players
I'll add some Buch. & Taze. players :
Joey Worley - UK (Garden) - K
Robbie Colley - VPI (Tazewell) - P
Luke Owens - VPI (Grundy) - OL
Nick Leeson - VPI (Abingdon) - long snapper
Mark Muncey - VPI (Tazewell)
Grant Throckmorton (a r-s Jr. form Wytheville) broke his leg while running about a month ago and Tech had to find a new scout team QB for the first 2 months (at least) - Nelson County's true Freshman Brian Saunders, who was recruited as a Punter.
Matt McGlothlin - Tenn. (Richlands)
Richlands has a couple of Frosh at Morehead St. (Brandon Gayheart & Garrett Arms - which turned down an offer to walk-on at WVU), while Rob Stanton went to Richmond.
Greg Tester did NOT play for Miami - tried to walk on and didn't make it - came back and starred at UVA-Wise a few years back.
Ahmad didn't play at UVA - don't think he even enrolled. Got in trouble up there during the Summer and transferred to Marshall before the semester started. He got hurt in practice last week and his replacement (also from Graham - Paco Jones) got a TD.
Re: Local College Players
Colley went to Haysi...then to VT...but didn't play sports
Re: Local College Players
He's not referring to James Colley's son Robbie.
Re: Local College Players
I know this isn;t really on topic but where is Lorezo Miles going? if he is gonna play football in college?
Re: Local College Players
Morehead if he hasn't changed his mind.
Re: Local College Players
If Im not mistaken both Miles and Thacker are at Moorehead.
Re: Local College Players
Thought Thacker was at UVA-Wise.
