He twice shared BIG EAST Offensive Player of the Week honors. Head Coach Frank Beamer was the BIG EAST Coach for the Year, the VASID Virginia Sate Coach of the Year. <br>Virginia Tech has nearly 24,000 students and is nestled in the rolling hills of Southwest Virginia located in the town of Blacksburg. The University offers more than 75 fields of study and all 50 states and 90 countries are represented by the student-faculty population. Plans have been announced for a $7 million multipurpose athletic project which will include facilities for strength and conditioning for its 21 Intercollegiate sports. Coach Beamer explained,  Our goal is to continue to have a championship football program. In order to do that, we must also have championship-type facilities. <br>Jim believes it takes a lot of dedication and hard work to be successful.  I workout to get better everyday, Jim said.  There s no half-assin in my book. You go full tilt. I achieved this level because of my work ethic and dedication. I like to work hard and give 110 percent in everything, whether it be football or academics. All of it is the same to me. I strive to become the best at everything. After siting out for my first two years at Tech, I became frustrated and took aggression out in the weight room by working hard to get to this level. Going in the weight room each day and lifting was a natural activity to me. <br>Jim s lifts improved this year to a 350 Bench, a 500 Squat, a 405 Hang Clean and a 331 Push Jerk. He has never missed a workout and the only practice that he has ever missed was due to food poisoning last August when he lost 10 pounds.  I don t like missing things, said Jim.  I try to trun my assignments in early. This attention to detail has resulted in a 3.0 GPA as he works toward a Masters Degree in Counseling Education. Jim also has a relentless method of preparing for a football game.  It starts on Monday morning at 7 a.m., watching film. Each day, Monday through Friday, we have meetings at 2 p.m. After practice, usually for about 30 minutes, I sit down with the coaches and discuss game plans and watch film. Depending on how comfortable I feel about the opponent, I watch film on Wednesday nights from about midnight to 2 a.m. This gives me a chance to focus on the opponent without having distractions. Throughout the week, I use mental imagery to focus on how I would react to an unusual situation or make the big ply to win the game. I am a player who likes to practice and be prepared for each game. Game day is no different from any other day during the week. I just think of it as another practice. <br>Jim believes that negatives like drugs and alcohol is stuff that gets in your way.  It holds you back. I advise people to be their own person. You are responsible for yourself. If you listen to other people on negatives, you won t go far. <br>The weightroom is a place where Jim develops and demonstrates leadership. He states,  A quarterback needs to be in the weightroom more that
