The concept for the All-Beamer Team was blatantly stolen from MGoBlog.com. It is the best players at each position since Beamer took over in 1987. Three weeks ago, we announced the nominees for the All-Beamer Team on defense. Now, here are our picks:
DE: Corey Moore
DE: Darryl Tapp
Other Nominees: Chris Ellis, Jim Davis, John Engelberger
- It was a tough choice between Tapp and Engelberger, but Tapp had the leadership intangibles that made him a great player on Bud Foster's defense. Moore was an easy choice.
DT: J.C. Price
DT: Chad Beasley
Other Nominees: Carlton Powell, David Pugh, Carl Bradley
- Price was an anchor of the mid-90s teams that first started appearing in bowls. Beasley was a beast on the teams that followed the Vick era.
LB: Cornell Brown
LB: Vince Hall
LB: Xavier Adibi
Other Nominees: Ben Taylor, Michael Hawkes, Jock Jones
- The easiest choices to make.
CB: Tyrone Drakeford
CB: Brandon Flowers
Other Nominees: Jimmy Williams, DeAngelo Hall, Ike Carlton, Antonio Banks
- You could make arguments for all seven guys. However, I think Drakeford is the best cornerback to play for Virginia Tech and Flowers is a personal favorite, so he gets the nod over Hall.
S/ROV: Aaron Rouse
S/ROB: Keion Carpenter
Other Nominees: Willie Pile, Pierson Prioleau, Torrian Gray
- Rouse might be my favorite Hokie. Tremendous football mind and leadership ability. Carpenter had a knack for being in the right place at the right time and always seemed to have an impact on key plays.
