Not with that attitude
J'wan Evans (East Rockingham, Va) running back (2019) has committed to the good guys. A walk-on I assume, he is good.
Very Solid player, kind of a big deal to be a walk-on. I think he had an offer to ODU
Offered this kid yesterday:
Huge fan of his. Should be priority #1 out of the slot for this cycle.
This is off topic but is anyone else having issues with 247 on Chrome with an iPhone? I've been getting an error for the entire site for the last several weeks.

LaMareon James to UNC.
Posing with Texas NC trophy, that's rich.
If it works it works
Yep. Smart move by Mack. Use what you can
I didn't know the coach got to keep the trophy not the school.
Probably a replica like the common wealth cup that uva has
That fake Cup got me blocked by LOLUVA football account.
I got blocked by the LOLUVA account as well. All I did was laugh when they posted a "big win" over William & Mary. Thin skinned wimps.
They can block all they want. We get the blocks that matter.
UVA twitter blocks better than their football team
Didn't Time Cop do the same thing with his FCS championship?
Composite 3* CB from 757
It's not that he's a highly touted recruit, it's that we allegedly wanted him and we don't have very many other recruits lined up that really bothers me
If we land Coit he will fill that slot need we were looking at LJ for, despite being listed as a CB by some.
Well, maybe #rudeboyz is more appealing than #loyalty. I'm not worried about it. If UNC with a 67-year-old head coach and the hashtag rudeboyz is what appeals to this young man he may not fit into the culture VT is trying to build.
There have been enough requests for a lil more context in the crootin threads that I figured I'd add the link to his profile is all
I'm not sure that Coit isn't higher on the board right now but we would have definitely accepted his commitment. More of a perception loss than talent loss IMO. James is very well respected in the 757 and is a very popular kid. He, Powell, and Lambert are all very close. Not to mention the fact the we were again considered the pretty heavy favorite.
I do still think Coit is a much more talented player though.
Am I the only one who thinks Mack looks creepy snuggled up next to him with his hand on the kid's arm?

Hey kids, gather round. Let's hold this replica trophy I won when you were 3 years old, and at a different school. It was dope #rudeboyz
Kid looks like a Boy Scout about to get a merit badge for helping an old man across the street.
Alex Hornibrook (Wisconsin) to transfer to FSU.
Edit: eligible to play immediately, grad transfer.
Have fun fsu
Take what you can get, I guess?
He is going to miss that Wisconsin Oline.
He melts down under pressure and struggles to consistently make reads. Hes also a southpaw which takes some adjusting to. Hes also one of the furthest things from a read option qb I've ever seen which is what willy taggart wants to run. It just doesnt make sense and doesnt fit
Hes also one of the furthest things from a read option qb I've ever seen
So what you're saying is, he has Grant Noel levels of athleticism.
A Wisconsin alum I know laughed at this and basically had the same sentiment. He thinks poorly of hornibrook...actually was excited when the freshman started in his place last year. Wonder how he will handle that savage simplicity of willie taggart...
I thought he was gonna be legit. He looked fantastic in the spring game and had one of the prettiest deep balls I'd ever seen but my god... it never came out again after that
I mentioned to my friend that hornibrook has Alex van pelt syndrome and he agreed it was appropriate. Alex van pelt was a QB for Pitt in the 90s that was all-world as a freshman and got steadily worse as he got older. For those that don't know...
I see your AVP, and raise you a Reggie Ball.
AVP actually played in the NFL...as a QB...but yeah, same idea
Didn't Nathan Peterman go to Pitt too?
I've tried to look at this move 100 different ways. The only reason it makes any sense is that Hornibrook is interested in coaching and wants to learn another offensive scheme (and is willing to die for the experience). FSU gets a warm body to get absolutely torched behind an awful o line. Hornibrook gets experience in Tagart's lethally simple spread veer offense....as a Pro style QB.
Maybe Taggart is bringing Hornibrook in because Taggart needs help with coaching the offense?
Desperation on both sides, that's how you have to look at it.
Sooooo FSU still doesn't have a QB...
That bwah has a noodle for an arm.
Not Hokie related but Alex Hornibrook, QB for Wisconsin, has transferred to FSU.
Look up.
A lot of 2020 North Carolina guys trending towards UNC right now. I would expect them to clean up in State in 2020. VT would be very wise to focus on select guys in NC for 2020 and start working on 2021 in North Carolina, that's going to be an above average year and a great shot at getting talent to cross the state line.
Word is they are close to landing 2021 5* DT Payton Page as well.
Everyone who is underestimating what Mac can do at UNC is going to be severely disappointed. We are going to feel this.
Just like Fuente and Frank felt all those better ranked classes UNC brought in a lot of years compared to Hokies. This is pretty par for the course of UNC and isn't a great shift in their recruiting.
Haha just couldn't help yourself. Let's not do this to another thread again please.
Yes I should just let the sky is falling crowd go unchallenged.
I was agreeing. I should stop challenging the misguided believe that Mac is going to change UNC from its historical recruiting, which on average has been better than Tech's already.
Who said the sky was falling?
I think what people need to understand about 2020 is a couple of things:
1. UNC is going to get the new coach bump, regardless of who it is.
2. This is especially true because UNC specifically hired Mac to win NC recruiting over NC State
3. NC State did really well in-state recruiting last year in positions of strength in the 2020 NC recruiting class.
4. Which means that UNC can sell early playing time and NC State and VT cannot sell as well, which gets UNC an easier path to landing recruits.
So, One year is not a trend. It's all going to come down to what UNC does on the field this year. If they start 0-3 or 0-4, will they hold on to early commits? Who knows. So, while I won't underestimate Mac, I don't see 2020 as the start of an upward trend. Now, if they kill it in 2021, then I'd be worried.
I'm still waiting for the newish coach bump in recruiting.....hell, I thought we could have something close to what UVA had those couple of years when London got numerous high 4* and a few 5 *.
It always bothered me that Iowa State and UMD could manage a new coach recruiting bump, but we couldn't.
Yea because they weren't replacing a legendary HOF coach that had literally built the programs national perception and had been the face of it for almost 30 years. It's a completely different situation. When you replace a guy that is worshipped at a school there is more of a "Don't F this up" feeling than a "Hell ya, something new" feeling that would create excitement and recruiting buzz.
I'm gonna just leave recruiting team rankings from 2014-2019 below
1. What ISU recruiting bump???
2. UMD has the most noticable bump but we'll see with Locksley if Durkin was a flash in the pan or not
3. Note the drop off of Locksley's transition class vs. Fuente's transition class. Very similar drop off in very different situations, but one is considered an ACE recruiter while many of us have convinced ourselves the other can't recruit....
4. Fuente has at best given us a slight bump from the latter Beamer years but overall is right on or right above our historical average.
The sky is not falling, but Fuente is hitting about the same level of recruiting with pretty similar recruiting infrastructure to Beamer. Recruiting support staff is where we need to improve to take the next step.
UMD has historically recruited in the 20-30 range so their rankings in the 40s are more of a product of Edsall's tenure being a dumpster fire. I fully expect Locksley to get them in the 15-25 range; however, I would be shocked if they somehow broke the top 10.
Good thing we know when kids these days are 800% committed they mean it, right? Keep recruiting these kids hard. If anyone should understand how quickly a kid can change their mind, it should be a tech fan.
2020 is going to be VERY bad for Tech recruiting wise. We absolutely need a good season on the field to carry us through and hopefully start an upswing in 2021. This seasons frail schedule is actually the biggest blessing in disguise I think I've ever seen.
It is certainly not off to a great start when compared to previous classes. The level of commitments might be around the same, but the recruits that we are receiving interest from and getting on campus is way lower than it was in 2019 and 2018. Not all is lost, but we certainly have a ways to go to match the results of recent years.
You hearing any good news about Coit?
Meanwhile, while you guys worry about UNC, NC State is up in Woodbridge stealing RJ Adams
I feel obligated to post this when I see the debate about whether UNC recruiting success really matters:
elite players have realized that grouping has real benefits. You see it at every level of sports now, all the way down to scholastic sports and youth all-star travel teams. You're going to get better in practices, not games, and when the guy across from you is NFL bound, you're getting better. When you're surrounded by elite play makers, it's that much harder for opponents to double you or scheme away from you. And depth at position groups means you're insulated from being pushed back on the field before you're really ready or being asked to do things before you're really prepared. Sure, it's more of a challenge, but that's kind of the point. There is no path of least resistance to the NFL unless you're a 1 in a million freak like Ed Oliver who came out of high school pretty much ready for the NFL. His two college career highlights were terrorizing Baker Mayfield in his first game and then getting into a Starter Jacket argument with Applewhite late last fall. He will be a first round pick, but he's not going to be the #1 pick, which I think he could have been. That looks like Bosa, fellow 5 star, Ohio State. He could end up behind Quinnen Williams (borderline 4 star, Alabama), Rashan Gary (5-star, Michigan), Clelin Ferrell (borderine 4, Clemson), or Christian Wilkins (mid-4, Clemson). If so, he may have lost multiple millions by choosing Houston over a blue blood program.
Recruiting unfortunately is a zero sum game and you can't really compare recruiting and success in the modern game to recruiting and success back in the 90s or aughts - not in any straight forward way - using player ratings or class rankings. Too many things have changed.
get out of here with your LOGIC and REASON
RIP Severus Gruber
(TKP publishes some great recruiting articles and interviews.)
Since 2004 we're 12-3 vs. UNC. Win games....get recruits. No use crying over what you might think will be a Mac Attack.
Beating UNC on the field and in recruiting >> Beating UNC on the field but not recruiting > Beating UNC in recruiting but not on the field >> Not beating UNC in either
I'd rather not lose recruits we want to sign to an in-division rival, regardless of our historic record against them.
Has a Tilted Kilt opened in Blacksburg yet?
This guy asking the real recruiting questions
Back to something interesting.
Years ago, some alumni were trying to open a Hooters in Blacksburg and were not successful due to the city wanting local small businesses. Just think how much money could have been made for both wait staff and city taxes. The buffalo Wild wings location in the burg was alwasy trash, terrible service.
One summer we went to BW3 when it was absolutely vacant, I think even summer classes weren't in session. The three of us were the only ones there. One of the waitresses was determined to make it a breastraunt. Her skirt was so short that every time she bent over her ass popped out (was wearing a thong). She kept cleaning the tables around us so she kept bending over with he butt in our direction. One of my friends who was going crazy over her ass left a huge tip ( cash).
I guess the moral of this story is breastraunt will find a way.

Made Top 6 for 4* Center Tre Mitchell the other night
Virginia Tech will have some of its more important targets on campus at the end of the month. Jalen Coit, Quentin Williams, Kobe Baynes, Kaelon Black, and Kyjuan Herndon all informed TKP of a spring Virginia Tech visit.
I haven't done a ton of research on these guys yet, but for the "more important targets" there really aren't any highly rated guys on that list.
It will be interesting to see how they evolve/grow during their senior seasons.
Some or most of those guys are probably in for some decent sized bumps, not necessarily to 4*'s but definitely possible for a few of them. We aren't in hot on a lot of blue chippers right now, hopefully that changes by ESD.
Big Coit fan. I like Williams and Baynes. Could leave the other two.
Right now, Virginia Tech doesn't stand well with many highly rated guys (per the 247Sports Composite).
Add Antwaun Powell.

We also got a PWO commitment from a long snapper.

I tell you what, we can recruit some serious long snappers. Wonder if we can convert any of them to defensive linemen.
I find it funny how long snapping has become such a specialty in the age of the shotgun QB, where nearly every snap is at least 5-7 yards deep. Might be better off just recruiting centers who can snap.
Long snappers have to be athletic enough to get down field and cover for punts.
Yeah but I don't plan on punting much /s
The long snap and a shotgun are completely different motions. The long snap is fired back there much harder.
4* CB Miles Brooks from Isaiah Ford's high school (Trinity in Jacksonville) just committed to GT despite CB's to VT and Ohio State.
Insult to injury for this class so far.

Wow! That's fucked up

Oh yea! If I'm a parent of a student athlete, I want my kid to play for that guy!!!!
Recruiting = Loss of life... sign my kid up!
Georgia Tech??? I'm very confused.
Geoff Collins is a decent recruiter and he values recruiting. For whatever reason, we're holding course instead of putting necessary resources into recruiting while everyone around us is.
I'm sure we're not far off from hearing "well it's Atlanta, how are we supposed to compete with that?"
Yet again, please feel free to tell us how you know we are holding back resources from recruiting and what they are? I get you don't like losing a recruit, but just throwing out accusations of lack of effort and use of resources is ignorant. Ohio State was the other front runner in this and GT still beat them out. Are you saying it was from their lack of focus on recruiting too?
Where did he say we were holding back resources?
Edit: I guess it's in how you read it. I read it as "every other school is making clear and obvious investments in this area and we are just holding course"
instead of putting necessary resources into recruiting while everyone around us is
That reads to me that he believes we aren't putting enough resources and effort into recruiting. It just follows up previous comments of people accusing the staff on not focusing enough on recruiting and a lack of effort, but with no specific examples. Losing a recruit doesn't mean the staff was lazy or we didn't focus enough on it, so if you're going to accuse them of that, then you need to back it up with how you actually know that.
That reads to me that he believes we aren't putting enough resources and effort into recruiting.
As a matter of fact, that is exactly what I believe, and I don't feel ashamed one bit to say it. Our recruiting support staff, budget, level of experienced hires, number of GAs, etc. are not on par with 'peer' programs and aren't close to that of a program who (hopefully) has conference championship aspirations.
Also this 'losing one recruit' shtick is so tired. We've lost multiple recruits who we were front runners for to lesser programs, and don't really lead for any 4* players this cycle. Also, I never said 'lazy,' so please keep your accusations factual, at least.
I'm pretty sure GA numbers are limited by NCAA rules.
You can have 4 on staff. We've got 2. That doesn't read like commitment to me.
Because two got hired away. You kinda have to wait till school is over in May/June to hire most GA's. Jesus man, I'm all with you on money spent on the program but stop reaching to make your point. (Also Whit can't spend money he doesn't have, and if you look around we don't have same money as most programs competing for top spots each year.)
Jack Tyler got promoted from GA to quality control, Cody Grimm got a job with Tampa Bay, and Ham is now the safeties coach. They haven't filled out the spots yet, but keep telling me about not having facts straight.
They are. We have two right now but are in the process of hiring two more. One of the names (if the logisitics work out) is one that will be very familiar to VT fans.
I think what he's talking about is a lack of financial commitment towards a recruiting support staff, which he is correct about. Fuente has language in his extension that earmarks a chunk of money to go towards support staffers, but for whatever reason, we have yet to spend all of the allocated money. Really confusing and frustrating situation to be honest.
Fuente has language in his extension that earmarks a chunk of money to go towards support staffers, but for whatever reason, we have yet to spend all of the allocated money.
Just out of curiosity (vs challenging the fact, which I'm not), is this common knowledge/been remarked on publicly or is it coming from a source inside the department?
As you say, it brings up quite a few questions if the money is sitting there and not being invested in the program. There's no way Whit would let that happen for no good reason! right....?
LA has given us plenty of evidence over the years to trust that he has some access to inside information.
Seriously, I know new people join TKP all the time but it seems like every other week someone new is questioning our #sauces. Do what I do, take it all with hint of salt and cross your fingers it's good news for the good guys. We can't keep giving away how some of our guys know stuff or the Mole will get caught and the info stream will dry up.
I think there are a few people on here (most of us know who they are) that deserve a small jar of sauce icon next to their names. The sauce icon would indicate, "you do not fuck with this poster".
That, and being able to @ someone in a post. 'Cause I want to @ the powers-at-be to make this happen!
I believe it's public knowledge but honestly can't remember
Ok, thanks.
Just for the record, I wasn't trying to question your sources at all. I've been here long enough to know who's stuff ages well. My question was more that if the athletic administration is ok with talking about the lack of hires in the open they don't see it as a huge problem, whereas if it's a subject that's only being discussed behind closed doors it could be a bigger issue. I tried to be clear in my OP, but obviously a few people interpreted it differently. Hope you weren't one of them, and if so, apologies. Thanks for the steady stream of info!
Coach Magenbauer has resigned from Salem High School in Virginia and I've heard a rumor about something involving Tech. No clue if that's true. It just happened today so a lot of stuff is flying around.
If you really want me to go back and pull up times you've mentioned "lack of effort" in recruiting then I can do it. Also yet again, I am not saying this coaching staff should be free of criticism, I just want it backed up when you say we aren't using the resources properly. I think the real issue is we don't have enough funding coming in to compete at a top 15 level in recruiting. I think realistically we fall in the 30-20 range with our lack of success since 2011 and the amount of money we bring in, so this coaching staff has been meeting my recruiting expectations in recent years. If you think we should be consistently in the top 15, then this conversation is pointless.
Also number of GA's has little to do with recruiting, but most of the other issues you seem to have is with the budget and lack of money.
Ohio State was the other front runner in this and GT still beat them out. Are you saying it was from their lack of focus on recruiting too?
If that was really your takeaway or how you'd like to legitimize the situation, that is fine, but very clearly was not the point.
My main point is the first half of the statement. Feel free to criticize the staff, but back it up.
I just wanted to add that I think it's a joke that you think our effort and focus on recruiting is what cost us a kid, when he also chose GT over Ohio State who is a recruiting machine.
If you don't think Ohio State is going to fill that spot with someone as high or highly rated, maybe you haven't been looking at their classes over the last few years. They're hot on a 5* and mulitiple 4s at CB. We are not.
That doesn't change the fact that they got outrecruited for a kid by Georgia Tech, but yea I've heard OSU has had some good recruiting classes recently. They're a real up and coming program.
I guess I don't understand your point. Stating "GT beat out OSU too for him" doesn't make this any better for VT or discount the fact that he's going to a division foe. You're actually making my point for me - GT's recruiting job here was impressive.
Losing players to Clemson, PSU, or OSU happens and will continue to happen. Yet we're now losing guys we need to NCST, GT, UNC, or MD with some regularity. You can just continue to say 'just one recruit,' and act like it's no big deal, but those programs are investing in recruiting, and I don't feel like we're doing what we need to to get the talent in the program to win the ACC given the current external forces.
I don't disagree with you. My point it obviously Georgia Tech did a hell of a job recruiting here. Ohio State has every resource you can ask for when it comes to recruiting and still got beat out. Just maybe sometimes when we don't get a recruit, it's not because of something we didn't do and it's just because that school is the best fit for the kid. My problem is when we lose a recruit, everyone is quick to question what the coaching staff didn't do, when that's really just not how recruiting works all the time.
Sidenote: I haven't say "just one recruit". And like I've said all along, I personally feel like where we are at as a program, we are hitting our goals in recruiting. Yes, other teams have taken some of our big targets, however with the success we've recently had and with the money coming into the program, I don't see us making vast improvements in recruiting. We just came off of a class where we signed 7 4 star guys and flipped one of Ohio States biggest lineman recruits. I think to say we aren't investing enough into recruiting just isn't accurate.
Another "silent" VT commit that ended up elsewhere. Believe that is three this cycle
can you clue us into who the other two were?
CRS and lamareon
All on the defensive side of the ball correct?
Lamareon was a RB/slot recruit for us. Not sure why it matters if they were all on the defensive side of the ball.
Thanks, wasn't sure if Lamareon was a silent or not
And two of the three were highly rated at a position of need. Between Fuente walling off access to the program and recruiting returns looking less promising this cycle, there's little juice around the football program. Tech's Sweet 16 run couldn't have come at a better time. It's been a pleasant distraction.
I'm desperate for any good football news, hows the grass coming in on Worhsam field this Spring?? /s
There is barely such a thing as a verbal commitment, so what is a silent commit worth?
Nothing matters except signatures on LOIs. However, it's a data point in the positive direction (or at least was). Both North Carolina and Georgia Tech have new head coaches who have put a renewed emphasis on recruiting. And now they are landing targets at the Hokies' expense.
Nothing other than basically being told that you are that recruit's leader, which is better than not being told that. If you lose that recruit, it means that another school did enough to beat you to him, which is a bad thing obviously
Do you believe this is a symptom of a systematic issue where after a silent commit we have turned our focus elsewhere and allowed others to swoop in or a "high schoolers are fickle and the other schools are recruiting better than we are"?
Wow...tons of comments in the recruiting thread must be some big news...oh
[1] New commitments, decommitments, portal entries, etc... deserve their own thread. Please read the brief best-practice tips at the top of the recruiting forum.
If there's really big news, there will be a separate thread

What's with the little foot drag? I don't think I've ever seen that technique. Anybody in the know?
I've seen a lot of receivers do the foot drag, granted it's not nearly as pronounced at this one, but I think it's a tactic used to cause the defender to hesitate if just for a moment. If you watch any of Odell Beckham's training videos on Instagram he does this relentlessly; however, he doesn't do it like Tahj is doing here. Tahj breaks his smooth stride when he does it, it's more pronounced slight of "foot?" but when Odell does it, he does it in a manner that it makes the defender actually believe that he's getting ready to cut left, right, or curl.
I'm happy that the kid is seemingly motivated and working hard to overachieve. Speaking from experience, even when you are "healthy" injuries like what Taj had take your body down so low it takes a long time to get the athletic ability back. Additionally, it is easy to injury something else due to subconsciously compensating for stressed tendons, pain, lack of explosion etc.
If he proves me wrong - fantastic. I'm 100% in favor of a redshirt here to protect the kid from himself and the things above. He is at a position that has a tendency for the most severe injuries and he is young. Heal 100%, learn the system and be Better than his HS body due to college strength and nutrition or there is clearly a higher risk of his career ending before it begins.
I'm in the camp (especially coming straight from Hs) that you protect the kids health and play the long game.
Here is a list of current prospects that I think the staff should be held accountable for landing as they are very high priority and we are very much in the hunt. After already missing on a few of our targets these guys are now extremely high priority. The staff should be criticized for these misses if they happen.
Jalen Coit - WR
Antwuan Powell - DE
Quentin Williams - DE
Isaiah Raikes - DT
RJ Adams - OG
Andru Phillips - CB
Here is a list of prospects that I would feel like the staff went above and beyond to land and should be applauded for landing:
Tyler Baron - DL
Fadil Diggs - DE
Michael Carmody - OT
Blake Corum - RB
Keandre Lambert - WR*
Malcolm Greene - DB
De'Arre McDonald - CB
*It's embarrassing the position we sit with him to be frank. He recently listed 3-4 other schools that were recruiting him the hardest and we weren't one of them. He almost certainly will NOT be a take at Clemson which is where he would commit if he was allowed right now (I'd put money on that). After that it looks like we are behind UNC, PSU, etc. He recently got a UGA offer and I'm sure he would go there if he is a take as well. A&M is also seen to be in decent position last I saw. He is Kam Chancellor's cousin, and it seems like he wants to go anywhere but VT at the moment.
I'm going to probably re-post this in each future recruiting thread to keep track of how we are doing on these prospects.
Just because someone has had family go somewhere doesn't mean it gives you a leg up in my personal case it meant I didn't even apply to my parents college. In hindsight that was a mistake but I was 17 and thought I knew everything. Again lots of legitimate criticism to go around family connections I don't think are.
I think the Kam connection might actually be hurting us here
Yeah, I've wondered if that was the case after seeing a some chatter about that possibility. He might want to blaze his own path/avoid the Kam shadow. Regardless, it hurts that it feels like an "anywhere but VT" type situation right now.
It seems like it may be, although the above comment is funny to see, given how many times we've seen the exact opposite argument made when VT doesn't land a player, too.
"Well his parents went there, how can we compete with that?" "His cousin went there, we were never going to land him" "His HS/7on7 coach is there. You can't blame him for not coming here" etc.
Because like all things when dealing with individuals different things are important. I know lots of kids their only goal was to go to the same school as their parent, they then left school and went to work for their parents.
That could very well be the case, but you're not in the room with these kids or their families. You repeatedly use this line of justification regardless of the situation and kid - 99.99% of which you're not tuned into at all, whenever we miss on a much needed target
I'm with outoftowner on this one. This screams of VT isn't winning enough so I'm gonna use the "old blaze my own trail" statement. Can't really argue with it but I bet if Kam was a Clemson, Bama or ND alum he would be "finishing what Kam started"....
Winning or losing in a season rarely factors in for most kids. Now long term winning and losing certainly does. But Tech hasn't been down that long.
Tech hasn't won the ACC in 9 seasons, and hasn't played in a major bowl since 2012. Rising high school seniors were 8-9 years old when that happened. I'd say it's starting to be a pretty good while since VT was truly nationally relevant. It may not seem like it to us who have been alive longer and following football since we can remember. But for a 17 year old that probably feels like a lifetime ago.
If winning the conference was the measuring stick that's a really short list across all of football.
Not necessarily the measuring stick, but if you're winning a P5 conference with some regularity, you're generally in the national conversation most of the time. It's just been forever since VT was a national power when you look at it through the eyes of a 17 year old. Nine years ago is over half of their life to this point, and a lot of kids that young generally aren't as attentive to the national profile and legacy of a college football program. They've spent a good chunk of their childhood and adolescence watching Tech be mediocre and now it's worst season in 30 years.
We don't have the brand or location advantage of a Miami or USC to get top recruits regardless if we have been down a long time or not. Since our program has decided we are going to be more player development/coach 'em up vs recruiting oriented, we have to build it and hope they come. We have to be winning and convincing people that we are for real. I'm worried this program is going to end up like Nebraska with its glory days behind it if we can't get things turned around quickly.
insider posts comment, fireman chimes in with overall concept that aligns with insider's feedback... [other poster] criticizes fireman as if insider hadn't validated the theory...
If recruiting is as easy as some people on this board think it is, then we need to hire them with all the recruiting money we aren't using. It's like we forget how the mind of a 17 year old works.
I appreciate you putting this together and think you are spot on with the levels of assumptions. The scary part is that if Raikes is the highest rated DT we can land, we are going to be in trouble come 2021 when Hewitt, Crawford, and Cunningham graduate. It looks like Powell may be the only future 4 star from that first group besides maybe Hoit and Jalin Hyatt.
Lambert would be a miss but we are loaded at WR I wouldn't be too concerned with a miss there. In my opinion we HAVE to land Corum at RB, even if Keshawn King turns out to be a stud.
We have players that can help us compete for an ACC Championship at the QB, WR, TE, OG, OT positions on offense with needs at just RB. On defense, I feel comfortable with the roster makeup at LB and maybe S depending on how Conner and Walker develop. I think we have definite needs at DT, DE, and CB. Of that list, I really hope we can convince Greene to come fill the Nickel/Safety role and McDonald to be a lockdown corner. LAHokie has mentioned the long shot we are for Baron and Diggs so I am hopeful for a change of heart but looking at other potential prospects that we could get.
DE, DT, and CB are certainly critical needs, and unfortunately for us, are probably the most important defensive positions in college football. A good pass rush/run stuffing DL and lockdown corners will make even lackluster LB's and S's look good. Conversely, a good LB corps and S's aren't always enough to make up the ground if your DL can't get pressure or hold up the LOS properly and your corners can't cover. That said, I am in the camp that Farley was actually quite good in coverage last year and I still expect him to have a bright career for us.
I am not worried about Hyatt getting his 4th star or not. I think he should, but I watched him play against my old HS in the 5A SC State Championship game last year and I am excited about him coming to VT whether he gets the rankings love or not.
I'm hoping we can find a late-riser at DT this cycle. Powell and Quentin Williams would make me very happy at DE.
Man that's depressing
Former OSU DT/DE on the market!
Transferring fall 2019 with 2-3 years of eligibility remaining. Will be eligible immediately🎒#RTG— Malik Barrow (@MalikB_55) March 26, 2019
I know we are hurting but this guy has had a lot of injuries. He has only played 2 games.
You better be damn sure that his injuries are behind him if you're willing to let him occupy a scholarship for the next 3 years
Beggars can't be choosers at this point, probably worth a roll of the dice. Who has an injury crystal ball?
He tore both AcL's and medically retired, but has now decided to transfer. I would call this a greater than average risk, but maybe he'll be an inspirational story one day. Who knows?
Agreed. I like to gamble but two blown ACLs for a DL is too much for me to bet on.
Virginia Tech offered Class of 2020 4**** Running Back Tee Hodge out of Maryville, TN (UT's backyard).
Blessed to receive an offer from Virginia Tech #GoHokies pic.twitter.com/di3zAh21SO— Tee (@TdotH44) March 28, 2019
Anyone else read "class of 2020" and think "dammit, we've sunk to offering middle schoolers?"
I feel old
Even more funny because of the odds he's named or nicknamed after Tee Martin. I hope we land him.
Antwaun Powell just got bumped to 4 * 3rd best in VA and #116 overall and #6 WDE.
I mentioned in a comment how he would be bumped to a 4 star soon but I think just reiterates the NEED it is to get him on board. Hopefully with his visit this weekend we can lock it up and get him recruiting other 4 stars b/c we don't seem to lead for many others at the moment.
Make it so!
Richmond (VA) Life Christian Academy cornerback Joseph Johnson Commits to NC State. Believe he held a VT offer as well as Virginia and some others.
Really liked this kid, length (6-2) with the ability to play CB.

Google's parent company Alphabet is fixing to flog its money-munching robotics arm, Boston Dynamics, which it only bought three years ago.
Executives at Alphabet reckon that military robotics tech firm Boston Dynamics is unlikely to produce any real revenue in the next few years, reported Bloomberg, and as such has quietly put the unit up for sale.
The trouble lies with Google's robot initiative, named Replicant after the cyborgs in Blade Runner, it was reported. Replicant "was plagued by leadership changes, failures to collaborate between companies and an unsuccessful effort to recruit a new leader" after the head of the group, Andy Rubin, departed the company, Bloomberg reported.
Despite having produced the "Big Dog" robot mule, and the 5'9" bipedal "Atlas" robot, neither machines were commissioned by the US military after having been created to meet Pentagon dangled contract, with the Marine Corps turning down the "Big Dog" robot as it was too loud to be used on operations.
Boston Dynamics, which had remained based in Boston, away from the rest of the Chocolate Factory's Replicant team, also struggled to fit in. Bloomberg reported that tensions between Boston Dynamics and the rest of Replicant team were made public after the minutes of a contentious meeting were accidentally posted to a forum accessible to all of Google's staff.
Replicant was subsequently assimilated into Google X, the Chocolate Factory's research wing for more outlandish projects. Boston Dynamics, however, wasn't transferred over but tipped as for sale to other companies such as Amazon and Toyota.
It was reported that Google's PR crew were upset with Boston Dynamic's latest robot video, as it did not wish for Alphabet to be associated with any forays into humanoid robotics - despite having titled the robotics initiative Replicant.
Bloomberg acquired other emails which were published internally, which stated: "There's excitement from the tech press, but we're also starting to see some negative threads about it being terrifying, ready to take humans' jobs."
Courtney Hohne, a director of communications at Google and the spokeswoman for Google X, requested that her colleagues "distance X from this video," and stated that, "we don't want to trigger a whole separate media cycle about where BD really is at Google."
"We're not going to comment on this video because there's really not a lot we can add, and we don't want to answer most of the Qs it triggers," she wrote, according to Bloomberg.
Google has declined to comment. ®

When attempting to transition an existing church in a more missional direction I believe one of the topics of discussion must surround the concept of "the priesthood of all believers." For me the "priesthood of all believers" is not just a theological perspective on there being no need for an earthly mediator to God, but I also understand it from a missiological standpoint. In other words, if we understand the church as God's agent sent into the world to participate in what He is already doing, then every member must be developed and deployed as missionaries into their local setting. The church is sent, not just collectively, but individually. Therefore, the church needs to be affirming and "commissioning" every member to engage his or her local mission field.
In their book, Untamed: Reactivating a Missional Form of Discipleship Alan and Deb Hirsch tell a story of how they "commissioned" the entire congregation of South Melbourne Restoration Community.
At South we took the "priesthood of all believers" (that every person is a minister and needs to be released as such) seriously. This didn't mean that our community always lived this out, but it was a value we tried to live by (and at times used humor to reinforce). In order to drive this point home, one Sunday morning, as our community arrived for our gathering, we greeted each person at the door and handed them a two-inch-wide strip of white flexible card and a fastener. Many looked puzzled but decided to play along, wondering just what we were up to.
A short time after the service began, Al asked everybody to stand up and fasten the white strip around their necks. He then proceeded to lead the whole church through an ordination ceremony. It wasn't quite what people were expecting, but that morning each and every person gathered at South was officially ordained into the ministry of Jesus. Once they were all ordained, they could dispose of the symbolic (and very unnecessary) dog collars and just live out their commission.
How else can we encourage people in the church to live out a "priesthood of all believers" understanding? What things have you done to "commission" people to mission?

R.C. Buford
In the aftermath of the Spurs being swept out of the NBA Playoffs by the Phoenix Suns, my ESPN 1250 co-host Jason Minnix and I discussed the Spurs prospects for the off season with General Manager R.C. Buford:
JASON MINNIX: What is your assessment of how this past season went and ended against the Phoenix Suns?
R.C. BUFORD: I think everybody's disappointed with the way the series against Phoenix played out. It just didn't work the way we had hoped. We were pleased with the Dallas series. Overall as the season went along, we were playing some of our best basketball at the end, but it definitely was injuries and a new group – it came together slowly.
CHRIS DUEL: Many analysts thought that Manu Ginobili was never the same after Dirk Nowitzki injured him with the elbow to his nose. Is it true in your estimation that the injury affected his game from that point on?
R.C. BUFORD: All I can say is that Manu didn't feel like that was an excuse and we're not going to use it as an excuse.
JASON MINNIX: When do you start contract negotiations with Tony Parker on an extension?
R.C. BUFORD: That hasn't been a focal point. Our focal point will be putting together our team for next year. With the entire NBA being at the end of its Collective Bargaining Agreement next summer, I don't know what you're going to see as far as contracts that will be taken into a new CBA until we have more definitive details on what that will look like.
CHRIS DUEL: Is that a huge issue, the prospect of a lockout? Is that causing teams to hesitate and maybe not pull the trigger on contracts because they don't know what the future is going to be?
R.C. BUFORD: I couldn't comment on any place but our own self and I think that there is an uncertainty – not necessarily on the status of the agreement – but just the long term structure of the economics of the NBA and until we have better definition there, I can only say that we're being cognizant of that as we do our planning.
JASON MINNIX: Tony Parker has an expiring contract and has high trade value if you were going to add a piece through a trade. I know you said you can't imagine the team without him, but you'd at least have to entertain any offer, wouldn't you?
R.C. BUFORD: I guess we'll answer all phone calls, but (Parker) is not the only expiring contract. Richard (Jefferson) has an expiring contract that is no different from Tony's. We've got several in our group that are attractive pieces, but again, if the phone rings, I'm sure we'll pick it up.
CHRIS DUEL: Jeff McDonald has reported in the Express-News that most of the Spurs off-season tweaking will involve trying to get Tiago Splitter to come here from Spain and the use of the 20th pick in the NBA Draft. Is that enough to get the Spurs on a level to compete with the likes of the Lakers and Suns for the Western Conference and the Finals next year?
R.C. BUFORD: Efforts will be made in all areas of our team to improve it. Whenever those possibilities are made available or we recognize opportunities, we'll approach them. I think everybody would like to see Tiago join our team. We will have a draft pick if we decide there's a player that we like, we'll choose to use it. If not, we'll look at an opportunity to make our team better through other ways. Again, in relation to Tiago, it's got to be a deal that works for us and for him and we can only control what our market and our abilities are.
JASON MINNIX: You cautioned us several weeks ago to lessen our expectation of Tiago Splitter, saying he's not the next coming of David Robinson through those doors. What kind of player is he and how do you see him helping this San Antonio Spurs team?
R.C. BUFORD: I'm not sure I was trying to lessen anybody's expectation, I just think right now there's such an unknown with Tiago and people are making him out to be either something that he's not or something that he's incapable to living up to because of the unknown. If and when Tiago gets to the NBA, we'll find out. But he's yet to play a minute here and until you really get him here it is unknown not only for you all, but for us as well.
CHRIS DUEL: Richard Jefferson struggled somewhat throughout the season. But many Spurs players have struggled in season one and have gone on to flourish in season two. Is it your expectation that Richard Jefferson will make such an improvement next year?
R.C. BUFORD: I think Richard's had the finger pointed at him, and probably unfairly, for the struggles of our team this year. I think that history has shown that most guys do play better in their second year here. Until we get a chance to play through the season and see how it goes, we'll find out then. Having said that, it's unfair to Richard that so much of our team's struggles have been attributed to him.
JASON MINNIX: Last year owner Peter Holt opened up the purse strings and allowed you to go out and spend some money and took the luxury tax hits. Has he given you an indication that he's willing to do that again this summer?
R.C. BUFORD: We'll approach the opportunities as we get them. Until we know what those numbers are, it's premature to speculate on where our budget and our payroll will be.

Oracle Database 12c: Installation and Administration
Question No: 101
You execute the following PL/SQL:
Which two statements are true?
Fine-Grained Auditing (FGA) is enabled for the PRICE column in the PRODUCTS table for SELECT statements only when a row with PRICE gt; 10000 is accessed.
FGA is enabled for the PRODUCTS.PRICE column and an audit record is written whenever a row with PRICEgt; 10000 is accessed.
FGA is enabled for all DML operations by JIM on the PRODUCTS.PRICE column.
FGA is enabled for the PRICE column of the PRODUCTS table and the SQL statements is captured in the FGA audit trial.
Answer: A,B Explanation:
The DBMS_FGA package provides fine-grained security functions.
ADD_POLICY Procedure
This procedure creates an audit policy using the supplied predicate as the audit condition.
Not C: object_schema
The schema of the object to beaudited. (If NULL, the current log-on user schema is assumed.)
Question No: 102
You configure your database Instance to support shared server connections.
Which two memory areas that are part of PGA are stored in SGA instead, for shared server connection?
User session data
Stack space
Private SQL area
Location of the runtime area for DML and DDL Statements
Location of a part of the runtime area for SELECT statements
Answer: A,C Explanation:
A: PGA itself is subdivided. The UGA (User Global Area) contains session state information, including stuff like package-level variables, cursor state, etc. Note that, with shared server, the UGA is in the SGA. It has to be, because shared server means that the session state needs to beaccessible to all server processes, as any one of them could be assigned a particular session. However, with dedicated server (which likely what you#39;re using), the UGA is allocated in the PGA.
C: The Location of a private SQL area depends on the type ofconnection established for a session. If a session is connected through a dedicated server, private SQL areas are located in the server process' PGA. However, if a session is connected through a shared server, part of the private SQL area is kept in the SGA.
System global area (SGA)
The SGA is a group of shared memory structures, known as SGA components, that contain data and control information for one Oracle Database instance. The SGA is shared by all server and background processes. Examples ofdata stored in the SGA include cached data blocks and shared SQL areas.
Program global area (PGA)
A PGA is a memory region that contains data and control information for a server process. It is nonshared memory created by Oracle Database when a serverprocess is started.
Access to the PGA is exclusive to the server process. There is one PGA for each server process. Background processes also allocate their own PGAs. The total memory used by all individual PGAs is known as the total instance PGA memory, and the collection of individual PGAs is referred to as the total instance PGA, or just instance PGA. You use database initialization parameters to set the size of the instance PGA, not individual PGAs.
Question No: 103
Your multitenant container (CDB) contains two pluggable databases (PDB), HR_PDB and ACCOUNTS_PDB, both of which use the CDB tablespace. The temp file is called temp01.tmp.
A user issues a query on a table on one of the PDBs and receives thefollowing error: ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01565: error in identifying file '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/CDB1/temp01.tmp' ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status
Identify two ways to rectify the error.
Add a new temp file to the temporary tablespace and dropthe temp file that that produced the error.
Shut down the database instance, restore the temp01.tmp file from the backup, and then restart the database.
Take the temporary tablespace offline, recover the missing temp file by applying redo logs, and then bring the temporary tablespace online.
Shutdown the database instance, restore and recover the temp file from the backup, and then open the database with RESETLOGS.
Shut down the database instance and then restart the CDB and PDBs.
Answer: A,E Explanation:
Because temp files cannot be backed up and because no redo is ever generated for them, RMAN never restores or recovers temp files. RMAN does track the names of temp files, but only so that it can automatically re-create them when needed.
*If you use RMAN in a Data Guard environment, then RMAN transparently converts primary control files to standby control files and vice versa. RMAN automatically updates file names for data files, online redo logs, standby redo logs, and temp files when youissue RESTORE and RECOVER.
Question No: 104
Examine the details of the Top 5 Timed Events in the following Automatic Workloads Repository(AWR) report:
What are three possible causes for the latch-related wait events?
The size of the shared pool is too small.
Cursors are not being shared.
A large number COMMITS are being performed.
There are frequent logons and logoffs.
The buffers are being read into the buffer cache, but some other session is changing the buffers.
Answer: A,B,E
Question No: 105
You notice a performance change in your production Oracle database and you want to know which change has made this performance difference.
You generate the Compare Period Automatic Database Diagnostic Monitor (ADDM) report to further investigation.
Which three findings would you get from the report?
It detects any configuration change that caused a performance difference in both time periods.
It identifies any workload change that caused a performance difference in bothtime periods.
It detects the top wait events causing performance degradation.
It shows the resource usage for CPU, memory, and I/O in both time periods.
It shows the difference in the size of memory pools in both time periods.
It gives information about statistics collection in both time periods.
Answer: A,B,D Explanation:
Keyword: shows the difference.
Full ADDM analysis across two AWR snapshot periods Detects causes, measure effects, then correlates them Causes: workload changes, configuration changes
Effects: regressed SQL, reach resource limits (CPU, I/O, memory, interconnect) Makes actionable recommendations along with quantified impact
Identify what changed
/ Configuration changes, workload changes
Performance degradation of the database occurs when your database was performing
optimally in the past, such as 6 months ago, but has gradually degraded to a point where it becomes noticeable to the users. The Automatic Workload Repository (AWR) Compare Periods report enables you to compare database performance between two periods of time.
While an AWR report shows AWR data between two snapshots (or two points in time), the AWR Compare Periods report shows the difference (ABE) between two periods (or two AWR reports with a total of foursnapshots). Using the AWR Compare Periods report helps you to identify detailed performance attributes and configuration settings that differ between two time periods.
Question No: 106
Examine the following command:
CREATE TABLE (prod_id number(4), Prod_name varchar2 (20), Category_id number(30),
Quantity_on_hand number (3) INVISIBLE);
Which three statements are true about using an invisible column in the PRODUCTS table?
The %ROWTYPE attribute declarations in PL/SQL to access a row will not display the invisible column in the output.
The DESCRIBE commands in SQL *Plus will not display the invisible column in the output.
Referential integrity constraint cannot be set on the invisible column.
The invisible column cannot be made visible and can only be marked as unused.
A primary key constraint can be added on the invisible column.
Answer: A,B,E Explanation:
AB: You can make individual table columns invisible. Any generic access of a table does not show the invisible columns in the table. For example, the following operations do notdisplay invisible columns in the output:
SELECT * FROM statements in SQL
DESCRIBE commands in SQL*Plus
%ROWTYPE attribute declarations in PL/SQL
Describes in Oracle Call Interface (OCI)
Not D: You can make invisible columns visible.
You can make a column invisible during table creation or when you add a column to a table, and you can later alter the table to make the same column visible.
Question No: 107
You upgraded your database from pre-12c to a multitenant container database (CDB) containing pluggable databases (PDBs).
Examine the query and its output:
Which two tasks must you performto add users with SYSBACKUP, SYSDG, and SYSKM privilege to the password file?
Assign the appropriate operating system groups to SYSBACKUP, SYSDG, SYSKM.
Grant SYSBACKUP, SYSDG, and SYSKM privileges to the intended users.
Re-create the password file with SYSBACKUP, SYSDG, and SYSKM privilege and the FORCE argument set to No.
Re-create the password file with SYSBACKUP, SYSDG, and SYSKM privilege, and FORCE arguments set to Yes.
Re-create the password file in the Oracle Database 12c format.
Answer: B,D Explanation:
/ You can create a database password file using the password file creation utility, ORAPWD.
The syntax of the ORAPWD command is as follows:
orapwd FILE=filename [ENTRIES=numusers] [FORCE={y|n}] [ASM={y|n}] [DBUNIQUENAME=dbname] [FORMAT={12|legacy}] [SYSBACKUP={y|n}] [SYSDG={y|n}]
[SYSKM={y|n}] [DELETE={y|n}] [INPUT_FILE=input-fname]
force – whether to overwrite existing file (optional),
/ 12c: V$PWFILE_USERS lists all users in the password file, andindicates whether the user has been granted the SYSDBA, SYSOPER, SYSASM, SYSBACKUP, SYSDG, and SYSKM privileges.
/ 10c: sts users who have been granted SYSDBA and SYSOPER privileges as derived from the password file.
USERNAMEVARCHAR2(30)The name of the user that is contained in the password file SYSDBAVARCHAR2(5)If TRUE, the user can connect with SYSDBA privileges SYSOPERVARCHAR2(5)If TRUE, the user can connect with SYSOPER privileges
not E: The format of the v$PWFILE_users file is already in 12c format.
Question No: 108
Examine the following query output:
You issue the following command to import tables intothe hr schema:
$ gt; impdp hr/hr directory = dumpdir dumpfile = hr_new.dmp schemas=hr TRANSFORM=DISABLE_ARCHIVE_LOGGING: Y
Which statement is true?
All database operations performed by the impdp command are logged.
Only CREATE INDEX and CREATE TABLEstatements generated by the import are logged.
Only CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE statements generated by the import are logged.
None of the operations against the master table used by Oracle Data Pump to coordinate its activities are logged.
Answer: C Explanation:
Oracle Data Pump disable redo logging when loading data into tables and when creating indexes.
The new TRANSFORM option introduced in data pumps import provides the flexibility to turn off the redo generation for the objects during thecourse of import. The Master Table is used to track the detailed progress information of a Data Pump job.
The Master Table is created in the schema of the current user running the Pump Dump export or import, and it keeps tracks of lots of detailed information.
Question No: 109
You created an encryptedtablespace:
You then closed the encryption wallet because you were advised that this is secure.
Later in the day, you attempt to create the EMPLOYEES table in the SECURESPACE tablespace with the SALT option on the EMPLOYEE column.
Which is true aboutthe result?
It creates the table successfully but does not encrypt any inserted data in the EMPNAME column because the wallet must be opened to encrypt columns with SALT.
It generates an error when creating the table because the wallet is closed.
It creates the table successfully, and encrypts any inserted data in the EMPNAME column because the wallet needs to be open only for tablespace creation.
It generates error when creating the table, because the salt option cannot be used with encryptedtablespaces.
Answer: C Explanation:
The environment setup for tablespace encryption is the same as that for transparent data encryption. Before attempting to create an encrypted tablespace, a wallet must be created to hold the encryption key.
Setting the tablespace master encryption key is a one-time activity. This creates the master encryption key for tablespace encryption. This key is stored in an external security module (Oracle wallet) and is used to encrypt the tablespace encryption keys.
Before you can create an encrypted tablespace, the Oracle wallet containing the
tablespace master encryption key must be open. The wallet must also be open before you can access data in an encrypted tablespace.
Salt is a way to strengthen the security ofencrypted data. It is a random string added to the data before it is encrypted, causing repetition of text in the clear to appear different when encrypted. Salt removes the one common method attackers use to steal data, namely, matching patterns of encrypted text.
ALT | NO SALT By default the database appends a random string, called quot;salt,quot; to the clear text of the column before encrypting it. This default behavior imposes some limitations on encrypted columns:
/ If you specify SALT during column encryption, then the database does not compress the data in the encrypted column even if you specify table compression for the table. However, the database does compress data in unencrypted columns and encrypted columns without the SALT parameter.
On your Oracle Database, you issue the following commands to create indexes:
SQL gt;CREATE INDEX oe.ord_customer_ix1 ON oe.orders (customer_id, sales_rep_id) INVISIBLE;
SQLgt; CREATE BITMAP INDEX oe.ord_customer_ix2 ON oe.orders (customer_id, sales_rep_id);
Which two statements are true?
Only the ORD_CUSTOMER_IX1 index created.
Both the indexes are updated when a row is inserted, updated, or deleted in the ORDERS table.
Both the indexes are created: however, only ORD_CUSTOMERS_IX1 is used by the optimizer for queries on the ORDERS table.
The ORD_CUSTOMER_IX1 index is not usedby the optimizer even when the OPTIMIZER_USE_INVISIBLE_INDEXES parameters is set to true.
Both the indexes are created and used by the optimizer for queries on the ORDERS table.
Both the indexes are created: however, only ORD_CUSTOMERS_IX2 is used by the optimizer for queries on the ORDERS table.
Answer: B,F
Not A: Both indexes are created fine.
B: The invisible index ORD_CUSTOMERS_IX1 and the bitmap index are both updated by DML operations on the Orders table.
F: Since ORD_CUSTOMERS_IX1 is invisible only ORD_CUSTOMERS_IX2 is used by the query optimizer.
Not C,Not D,Not E:
ord_customer_ix1 is an invisible index and is therefore not used by the optimizer.
VISIBLE | INVISIBLE Use this clause to specify whether the index is visible orinvisible to the optimizer. An invisible index is maintained by DML operations, but it is not be used by the optimizer during queries unless you explicitly set the parameter OPTIMIZER_USE_INVISIBLE_INDEXES to TRUE at the session or system level.
Note: Specify BITMAP to indicate that index is to be created with a bitmap for each distinct key, rather than indexing each row separately. Bitmap indexes store the rowids associated with a key value as a bitmap. Each bit in the bitmap corresponds to a possible rowid. If the bit is set, then it means that the row with the corresponding rowid contains the key value. The internal representation of bitmaps is best suited for applications with low levels of concurrent transactions, such as data warehousing.
Question No: 110
Your database is configured for ARCHIVELOG mode, and a daily full database backupis taken. RMAN is configured to perform control file autobackup.
In which three scenarios do you need media recovery?
loss of all the copies of the control file
loss of all the inactive online redo log group members
loss of a data file that belongs to the active undo tablespace
loss of data files that belong to the SYSTEM tablespace
logical corruption of data that is caused by a wrong transaction
abnormal termination of the database instance
