I would think that these players represent only a small fraction of the


Team. In Adonis’ case, I think it made a ton of sense if they got a great deal, given that he likely is pretty familiar with TG’s game plan.

In general though, if the Redskins hire players that are just as good as other schools’ players, then VT products have built-in marketing and name recognition. A hundred thousand Hokies already know Tim Settle and may be more likely to buy a ticket because they are now following a familiar face.

Think of the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders- I remember long ago reading that it was a great marketing campaign that consistently drew in fans to the Dallas franchise and had nothing to do with actually playing football.
