Some other notes/memories of Hokie:
- Hokie played as a true Fr as a DB in '77. Don't recall if he ever started but think he played a lot.
- In '78 he played FB in front of Charles Alexander. We've had a lot of good FB's over the years but Hokie is arguably the best ever.
- After Alexander left, Hokie played TB in '79.
- In '80, we went to the veer (Bo Rein's staff) and Hokie played RB.

Personal favorites:
- In '78 (on a game that was televised live at UK on Sat night; not sure how this game was broadcast since the TV rules were different then), UK had a DB named Venus Meaux. Venus int'd a pass and on the return, Hokie planted him. (He did something similar as a Saint vs KC DB Deron Cherry).
- In '79 we were losing pretty bad to OM at Miss Memorial Stadium. Hokie caught a pass in the flats and housed it. Big part of the comeback win.

There used to be some videos on YouTube by rnolan that would show these but have apparently been removed.

Hokie was a great Tiger and LA icon.
