I heard he's been single-handedly constructing the indoor practice facility. Well, with the exception of using Bucky's help for a boost to get the roof.

I've been friends with Carson Wise's kicking coach at Blacksburg for a while, and hearing him talk about Carson coming back from breaks is hilarious. There were numerous conversations along these lines:
Coach: "Carson, have you been lifting? What've you been working?"
Wise: "Bench, coach. And a little squatting."
Coach: "Dangit, Carson. You're a kicker. You need strong legs to kick. That's your thing, that's what's gonna get you to the next level, not your bench press."
Wise: "But coach, I gotta look good."
Coach: *facepalm*
