šŸˆ UVa Football Postseason '23-'24

Following up on a couple of the posts, in his Q&A with TheSabre, Lo Davis said that employees of the University and the VAF can fundraise for NIL/Cav Futures, but they can’t ask for a specific sport, although I believe donors can specify what sport they are giving to. Perhaps that is where some of the confusion is coming from.

can’t specify on the website, there’s no memo field or selection opportunity. I don’t want to give to women’s rowing, fans want to give just to football so we can stop the november embarrassments

Yes, I’d like to contribute to the recruitment of the top coxswain in the country.

Long as it doesn’t go to the swim team I don’t care

Huge deal to get him back.

Maybe that is sending a message to his other team mates who may be on the fence.

Chico Bennett coming back next year. Say what you want about CTE, but the players seem to have bought what he’s selling.

This is actually really encouraging (and impressive)

He played hurt most of this year, correct?

Su, Bennett, and Carter is a solid core of DL for next year (and I know I’m forgetting some folks)

The guys who are in seem really in.

The energy does not feel like a losing team. Now what CTE and staff does I dunno but it’s a start

Definitely not what I anticipated. Expected a mass exodus by anyone who could find a home. But, you know, these kids have shown a lot of quality for several years. Let’s give TE some of the credit for that.

I don’t know that those guys were finding a starting gig at another P5 in the portal.

But glad they’re staying. Better than alternative. Excited to see what we bring in.

Bryce Carter and Diatta. Think Smiley has another year, too.

How does Chico have eligibility left? Feels like his 4th year here after 3 at GT.

This will be his sixth year. But technically has two years left because he would be able to use 2021 (when he didn’t play a snap) as a redshirt or medical hardship year.

Sounds like Butler and Clary are trying to get waivers for a 5th year. Would be a nice boost if those get approved

Any news on if we will be getting a talent infusion from the JMU exodus? It seems like such an obvious move, especially for the kids from VA
