Congrats, Joey...I never get tired or hearing news like this!

Of all the things to love about VT, the tradition of giving scholarships to deserving walk-ons might be the top of my list.

This, to me, is the embodiment of Hokie football, and the source of pride that I can take wherever I go. THIS is how we roll at VT. And it is damn good stuff. I hope it never ends.

A picture is worth a thousand words. A gif is worth a million.

Are they giving him a look at Mike?

I don't think it's in the cards. I believe that bringing Slye's level of brutality on an every-play basis is considered unsportsmanlike conduct against Frank.

A decade on TKP and it's been time well spent.

There's a rule in there (Rule 9) about "making a travesty of the game." Pretty sure humiliating every member of the opposing offense by having your kicker wreck them every play could qualify.

Its a good thing that we got the Sam Rogers exception on that rule.

Sam Rogers wrote his own exception in himself. No one from the NCAA was man enough to remove it.

No, I *don't* want to go to the SEC. Why do you ask?

We don't love dem Hoos.

Congrats- it isn't often where your kicker is also one of your best kick coverage tacklers.
