After the November shooting that killed three of his teammates, Virginia running back Mike Hollins has rejoined the school's football team. And though he acknowledges that the number of football on his priorities list has diminished, he can't wait to play against his fellow Cavaliers in their opener at Tennessee. I can only imagine the emotions that will be gushing through my body,' he said. "I just can't; I can't.' I have no words because the spring game screamed at me like a sack of rocks, and I didn't expect it at all, so I can only imagine. However, I'm excited. "I'm excited for it."
