Duff - Why is she allowed back? -- HokieED72 08/19/2018 2:54PM

She is likely a walk-on. -- texashokie1 08/19/2018 3:29PM

Yes I believe she has always attended on the child college GI bill benefit -- VT_Alum2x 08/19/2018 4:46PM

Yep,G.I bill,her dad is military man. ** -- Sportsman 08/19/2018 6:21PM

Maybe that was only part of it. Could have been a coaching conflict. -- RJHokie 08/19/2018 2:57PM

I heard -- texashokie1 08/19/2018 3:46PM

I had heard that as one reason. I think it’s good that she is getting back -- RJHokie 08/19/2018 3:50PM

Are these past players... -- HokieJack 08/19/2018 12:11PM

Since it is only one playing returning -- texashokie1 08/19/2018 12:56PM

That’s interesting about Duff. Good to have her back though! ** -- RJHokie 08/19/2018 09:35AM

Mara Strum. Had not heard of her. -- HokieR 08/19/2018 08:07AM

Yes, local-ish kid -- VT_AD 08/19/2018 9:33PM

Google her -- delawarehokie 08/19/2018 09:30AM

Did any of her parents attend Tech? ** -- Old Line Hokie 08/19/2018 8:51PM

No, neither of them did -- VT_AD 08/19/2018 9:31PM
