Warms my heart Run-blocking was a huge weakness of ours last year. If Moses is half the mauler of his reputation, we're well on our way to fixing that.

CHARLOTTESVILLE ? When Morgan Moses signed a football letter-of-intent with U.Va., it was no secret that the mammoth offensive tackle from Meadowbrook High might not qualify for admission in 2009-10.

Some four months later, Moses, a Parade All-American in 2008, appears unlikely to play for the Cavaliers this season. The start of summer school is looming for incoming football recruits, and today I found all of the players who signed in February with U.Va. listed in the directory on University of Virginia, with one exception: Moses.

The recruits listed include Hunter Steward, an offensive lineman from Kellam High in Virginia Beach. When Steward committed to U.Va., there was some talk that he would delay his enrollment until 2010, but that idea seems to have been scrapped.

In conversations with people who are familiar with Moses? situation, I was told last week that there?s still a chance he?ll meet NCAA standards for freshman eligiblity. It?s more likely, though, that Moses will spend a year at a prep school ? probably Fork Union Military Academy ? before enrolling at Virginia in the summer of 2010.

U.Va. recruit Morgan Moses shines even before he starts to play

Predictably, the procession off the bus was slow. These were, after all, teenagers at 8:30 a.m., in early July.

Can you say sleepwalk?

"They're tired and sore," one coach remarked of the East high school all-stars as they trudged toward a practice for Friday's annual bash against the West at Darling Stadium.

But where was Morgan Moses? Certainly the Parade All-American offensive tackle and University of Virginia signee would be easy to spot, all 6-foot-7, 330 pounds of him.

Yet as player after player filed off the bus, pads slung over shoulders, there wasn't a behemoth in sight.

Had Moses canceled? Overslept? Happens all the time during all-star week.

Finally, one last person bounded down the steps. Wearing an orange U.Va shirt, he was big as a boulder, with a grin to match.

"He has the attitude you want to see from kids in all-star games," said East assistant coach Chris Thurman, the big whistle at Bristol's Virginia High School. "Look at him, always smiling and happy. He's one of those kids coaches can't have enough of."

Question is, will U.Va.'s coaches have Moses in training camp next month?

A recent graduate of Meadowbrook High near Richmond, Moses expects an answer in about two weeks. That's when he's due to receive his final standardized test results.

If the score meets NCAA standards, Moses heads to Charlottesville, where Cavaliers coach Al Groh calls him "a towering presence at his position."

If Moses falls short, he will attend prep school, most likely Fork Union Military Academy, a haven for top-flight football prospects needing to enhance their academic credentials.

Morgan Moses headed to Fork Union

Morgan Moses won?t enroll at Virginia as a freshman and will instead head to Fork Union Military Academy this fall, according to U.Va. coach Al Groh.
Moses, a 6-foot-7, 345-pound offensive tackle from Meadowbrook High in Richmond, didn?t attain minimum NCAA academic requirements for enrollment. He was considered by most recruiting analysts to be one of the nation?s top five offensive tackle recruits last year.
?I think it should be a very positive experience for him,? said Groh, who added Moses? re-routing to FUMA was expected.
