Virginia plays the seventh-game of their current eight-game home-stand Tuesday night at the JPJ.
Howard University is Virginia’s opponent, and the game is scheduled to begin at seven o’clock.
Virginia is 9-5 so far in the 2010-11 season, and Howard is 2-10. Virginia’s leading scorer Mike Scott will not dress, and just night be done for the season because of problems with his surgically-repaired ankle. If that is the case, Virginia will appeal to the NCAA in order for Scott to gain a fifth-year of eligibility.
Also, Virginia football player and current Junior defensive end Zane Parr announced today that he will forego his senior season and will enter the NFL Draft. Parr made 48 tackles in 2010, and I’m almost certain that another year at Virginia would have been in his best interest athletically, but if he can be drafted in the first three-rounds then it might just prove me wrong.
I follow the NFL Draft religiously, and having watched every minute of the Draft for the past 8 years, I just don’t see Parr going till the sixth or seventh round at best. Good luck Zane! Go Hoos!
