Update: he just transferred to George Mason
EDIT: It was sarcasm. Never as funny when you have to explain it. See comments below. 🍻
Huh?
I think that was supposed to be a "scarred Hokie fan can't have nice things" joke.
Yeah. It was sarcasm. We desperately need some athleticism.
Thanks to whoever downvoted a tongue in cheek joke though.
No. He hasn't.
Edit: Word of advice. Let some congratulations come in before loosing the cynicism. Possibly even throw in a /s or use sArCaStIcA font just to be safe
Seriously? I've got a MY quote in my signature. Some more background, but my dad and uncle know him personally. I won a sportsmanship award named after his dad. Very proud of that one. They're both fine gentlemen who we should all emulate.
I LOVE Mike Young. He put in a good word for me at a couple places back when I was still playing ball many moons ago. I worked in compliance at RU for his cousin, the AD. Worked with Mrs. Ballein, who he is close with and hired. I could go on and on about what a prince of a guy he is.
There is no ill will at all. BUT, if we cannot recognize: (i) that we have some talent/athleticism and retention issues; and (ii) that a guy who isn't enrolled at VT and is still in HIGH SCHOOL cannot transfer to another university, then lord help us on this site. Good grief.
Congrats, Ryan!
