Reason for being cautious is I have a 2nd cousin that plays football for University of Houston and he can't partake in the family fantasy football leagues. I'm not sure if its a team or ncaa rule.

I think it's an NCAA rule. My cousins played bball in the West Coast Conference (one for Pepperdine, the other for Portland) and they couldn't play in our league either.

I heard the Wolffs are here today and the younger Wolff got an offer today. Can anyone confirm?

On another note, Frederik Antoine (WR out of Canada) who I don’t think we ever heard of a commitment, retweeted the game’s highlights and the younger Wolff’s offer.

For those that have not had a chance to watch the televised version, the announcers said during the game that ODU was hosting the largest class of prospects they have ever had on campus at one time. They went on to say that ODU officials had to give out something like 120 tickets to prospects parents, etc.

Laughing at the VT recruits that are retweeting ODU highlights. Its a shame ODU isn't 4-0 right now with this win.

So did we get any commits after the VT game?

My daughter is a senior in HS. Received email today from ODU. Thought it was interesting how quickly they incorporated the outcome of the game into their new student marketing campaign.

The Old Dominion University football team’s stunning 49-35 victory over nationally ranked Virginia Tech on Saturday night was one of the biggest upsets in college football history and reverberated throughout the entire sports world. According to ESPN’s Football Power Index, ODU only had a 1.8% chance to beat Virginia Tech.

At ODU, courageous ambition unites with valued experience. Soaring talent fuses with an unrelenting will to succeed. At Old Dominion, history is ours for the making.

Here, we’re friends and teammates, mentors and peers, connected by opportunity and propelling each other onward in a place old enough to have traditions, but still young enough to create new ones. Join us, because at ODU nothing’s more valuable than the history we make together.

You can experience what it is like to be a Monarch at ODU’s Open House this Saturday.

Now that's what I'm talking about! Glad they are using the game as a marketing tool!

The only problem is that they didn't get to the ask until the end of three paragraphs of writing. Need to put the call to action up front. But amazing emotional writing all in all I love it.

Yep. Good message and timely/speedy. Agree about the CTA getting lost at the end, but a good design could mitigate that issue and we don't (or at least I don't) know what it looked like fully designed. Hopefully good. Nice work marketing team.

Couldnt figure out how to paste the image in my note last night, but email included the ODU logo at the top and a picture of Duhart and Fulgham doing their in air celebration. On the side of that picture were two blocks one above the other showing No. 13 VT 35 and ODU 49. As an ODU and sports fan definitely caught my eye.

Lead in started Has KJ thought about joining the Monarchy?

According to 247... Drelyn Ford has decommitted.
