Josh Conklin is a money grubbing douche who's allowed his content level to dip year after year. Continuing to ask more and more from long term supporters while providing less and less. Hell, French is the only reason to subscribe to this anymore.
Jesus. The parallels between this site and the program are ridiculous at this point.
Stop pimping your product 24/7 and do your job. I'd like a refund.
Edit: everyone should downvote me to let your thin skinned daddy, who perpetually throws hissyfits about everyone that even slightly upsets him, know you're a good boy. Because he cares enough to check.

Not cool, this is the premier Hokies website. Joe has done an incredible job getting it to this point literally because of heart. Go to any other website and they all do the same thing. The subscriptions go to capital improvements and to allow the the creator to not have to use his day job to supplement his "hobby" which at this point is a second job. We are all here because we love Virginia Tech and Virginia Tech sports. You can walk away if you so please

This guy has been a member of this site longer than I have and this is the first time I can recall seeing his name. I knew more about Josh Conklin than I do about you and your level of added value to this site and its community, and I just learned who Josh Conklin was when I opened this thread. Get out of here with this noise.

Although at some point soon I am going to increase it for new members. I have a massive code release set to ship which will allow more flexibility on pricing including monthly plans.

Hey Joe, totally understand the need for a price bump and I'm hopeful the monthly payment option brings in more TKPC'rs. Also, appreciate the implied loyalty to current TKPC'rs.
Some ppl just can't be satisfied and it's a sad way to live.

Seriously though, I think you're dead wrong about the content here. Marcolini and Moss continue to be excellent featured writers alongside French. I remember when the site was free, I miss those days too, but you get what you pay for, and I think we have. There is no dip, that I can tell.
This smacks of a deeper off-site beef with Joe and this just isn't the place for it.

I am biased, but Brian and Shelton are worth the price of admission on their own. So I appreciate you saying that.

I know you didn't mean anything by it, but TKP was never free. For years and years I paid for it out of my own pocket. Then I wanted to pay contributors and I tried to make the numbers work by advertising dollars (scale content). Not only was that very unsustainable money-wise, but it forced me to work on TKP like it was another full-time job. The subscription model alleviated a lot of those concerns.

Josh Conklin gets on 1 of the 4 bench press stations at the gym, pulls 1 of the benches out from the station next to them and when they are not using their station, they sit on the bench they pulled out staring at their phone for 10 minutes so that no one can use either of the stations.
And he does not have the real hot legs of the woman who actually did this a week ago when I was trying to get onto a bench press station.

I for one was pretty surprised that Notre Dame was not ranked something like 20-25. Pleasantly surprised that the voters weren't total idiots, but surprised nonetheless.

Josh Conklin thought he was going to be coaching the Terriers of William Beard. Then he found out that not only was William Beard's name actually William Byrd, William Byrd had no Beard. Josh was so disappointed he fled the state entirely, refusing to coach anywhere but schools with a Terrier mascot for reasons he stubbornly refuses to disclose. He threw a dart at the board, and that's the story of how he wound up at Wofford.

Boy, I hope you're right- and you should be. But the last few years we've failed to get bench players into games we should have so I'm hopeful but not confident. Hoping Pry is getting us back to the days where we completely manhandle such inferior opponents.

Josh Conklin demands to speak to the Hokie Ambassadors boss after his campus tour because you didn't agree to let the group see your personal dorm room.
He (hopefully) becomes especially annoyed when the address of "your boss' office" you referred him to from the steps of Burrus Hall turns out to be the Cassell Coliseum Hokie Bird statue.

I'm guessing you're making a reference to the failed tailgate in Miami past weekend? If not, there's a great picture of it on Twitter somewhere. I saw it through Bills' twitter

Josh Conklin schedules a project walk in the middle of the lunch period at a high school, just so he can walk by the blond teacher's classroom he is madly crushing over. And when they make eye contact, she says, "oh you're finally fixing the HVAC!?"
Unfortunately, they do not know the scope Josh laid out, and the shortest lead time is 8 months.

What's even more bonkers to me is that the account is actually a paying tkpc member --- if you're that butthurt about things then why pay
Joined to read French's film review, did that, some time passed, lashed out, and now wants a refund. (Running a website and business is fun!)
"Continuing to ask more and more" -- has the price of tkpc ever even gone up??
It hasn't.
Although at some point soon I am going to increase it for new members. I have a massive code release set to ship which will allow more flexibility on pricing including monthly plans.
thanks for receiving the long-stated feedback that monthly membership option would be amenable to many users here!

Is he? I don't see a key by his name.
Edit: NM, I see what happened now.
First comment in nearly 3 years, and bang! outta no where, coming in hot!
They weren't Joshin' around!
FTFY

I think he means there aren't enough emma pics like their used to be ... /s
This and ESPN+ are the ONLY sites I pay a subscription fee for and this is by far the better bargain AND the better content.
The Athletic is pretty good, too.
ESPN+ is only worth it because of the Disney+/Hulu/ESPN+ bundle.
Scott Frost is that you?
Sir, Joe didn't lose to ODU.
Never thought I'd see the day where I discovered a John Oliver burner account in the wild, especially on TKP, but, here we are.
Josh Conklin goes fishing with this guy.
Sir this is a Wendy's

Ya know, I think his Wikipedia page speaks for itself:
"He is the worst head coach in college football history leading the Terriers to a 1-10 season in 2021 and an 0-2 start in 2022."
Haha which one of you clowns did this??
Damnit!
Sadly it was probably a Wofford fan.
Fixed it
Josh Conklin's Wikipedia pages says he's the "worse head coach in college football history"

I know a guy named Josh Conkle and he couldn't be a bigger, insanely annoying, UVA homer. The name is close enough.
Josh say gosh
Brent pays the rent.
Josh Conklin believes both Nebraska and Notre Dame should still be ranked because of program history.
I for one was pretty surprised that Notre Dame was not ranked something like 20-25. Pleasantly surprised that the voters weren't total idiots, but surprised nonetheless.
Somebody hung a "Conch Republic" flag on his office door to signal a desire for a fleeting occupation of office.
He's never been in on the joke, claimed a Hemingway cat, suddenly became a huge Jimmy Buffett fan, brags about the flag constantly and framed it.
Josh Conklin is strongly opposed to a 12-team college football playoff.
His suggestion is an 11-team playoff plus Notre Dame....

Yet.
This season.
Against Elon and UT-Chattanooga.

He expects other people to call him that too.
I think it's actually "The Conk Commander."
Josh Conklin is just using wofford as a stepping stone to a P5 job
Who the fuck is Josh Conklin?
Josh Conklin cleans his car out with a shop vac at 3 AM on a Sunday, and asks if everything is ok when you go out to see wtf is going on.

Josh Conklin thought he was going to be coaching the Terriers of William Beard. Then he found out that not only was William Beard's name actually William Byrd, William Byrd had no Beard.

Are you "auditioning" for (FOE)rensics?
haha, not on purpose. I felt a riff coming on, and ran with it.
Josh Conklin doesn't think it is fair that Virginia Tech is probably going to play their 2nd, 3rd, and Walk-On's this Saturday.
Boy, I hope you're right- and you should be. But the last few years we've failed to get bench players into games we should have so I'm hopeful but not confident. Hoping Pry is getting us back to the days where we completely manhandle such inferior opponents.

Josh Conklin recommends you hide your $10 disposable charcoal grill under your $60k SUV before heading into the stadium.
I'm guessing you're making a reference to the failed tailgate in Miami past weekend? If not, there's a great picture of it on Twitter somewhere. I saw it through Bills' twitter
If you don't have Allstate, you might be paying for this yourself.
Here's a link to the story...
Miami tailgate fail
wow. I'd be so pissed if my car was destroyed by some idiot parked in my vicinity. I'm not really surprised, though, that people are so stupid.
I'd like for them to at least tell me before hand so I can pick which car I take to the game :-).
