Amen to that! It's like moving from the kiddie pool to the grown up pool.

Nice competing for recruits with ACC and Big East school already, CUSA better watch out. They won't know what hit them.

He had heard about some potential academic issues, but not so much that they were the reason of the transfer.

Seems that a lot of it stems more from Dew being asked to learn a position (whip) which is apparently really tough to pick up because not a lot of teams use it. It's a hybrid safety-LB position with lots of responsibilities, from coverage, to run support, to blitzing.

I have a feeling if he returns to his regular role at safety, he'll be fine.

That's exactly what a friend of mine from VT said. He said he'd fit our system better than the whip position he was trying to adapt to there.

How about we pee in the A-10 pool in December first

No one will notice a little pee in the A10 pool. It already has a big steaming pile of VCU floating in it (Cue Caddyshack video).

My VT friend just walked up to me at work "Man! you guys got another good transfer in Caleb." He said he saw him play lots at Phoebus as his wife and her father went there and go to a lot of games. He said while he watched him play for Dee at Phoebus he would rack up 12 tackles a game with ease. He said he was hurt a lot but UVa strength and conditioning probably helped with that.
