Dadi Just Wants a National Championship

Hokie Vision mic'd up Cornell Brown during practice. He talked with Dadi a lot. Dadi talked about filling that trophy case.

I love a good nap. Sometimes that's all that's getting me out of bed in the morning.

I love Dadi, the man speaks with the heart of a warrior!

Cornell's Truffle Shuffle just made my day.

"Exit light..."

No Dadi, it's 'ship!

Gonna have to revive these

There are no words...

With a healthy Dadi, Maddy, Fuller, Facyson the dream of going all the way can finally come true.

gonna need an offense still.

I mean maybe we have one. It is too early to tell. Don't think a strong D will win a championship without any offense.

See Virginia Tech Football 2012-2014. Not really even close to a conference championship.

Party Positive.

I see offense being good, only if they can show the versatility to score quickly when needed. I like ball control as much as the next person, but with these other team's offenses set up to score quickly, we need to be able to answer in kind...when needed.

Shoot for the moon, even if you miss you will be among the stars...

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
“I served in the United States Navy"

This phrase has always bugged me. If you shoot for the moon and land among the stars, you missed by lightyears. That's a terrible shot!

Those metaphors will really get after ya.

You may miss the moon, but maybe you land in the big dipper and get dork magic?

Why you gotta be so literal?

Hitch your wagon to a star!

This year is a big test for Loeffler and Brewer. Can they get it done with this crew?

I'd say so. They should at least be more productive than recent years. I still want to see a consistent Brewer.

-Being aggressive, being tough...that's the Virginia Tech way.

I really hope Dadi Nicolas meets and marries a woman named Mommi. Their son, Sonny Nicolas, would end up being the Hokies all-time leading tackler come the year 2037.

Sonny would be one of the only players on that team not named Fuller.

Side note to the Fullers, please make lots more Fullers.

The Orange and Maroon you see, that's fighting on to victory.

If all 4 Fullers have 4 Fullers then we'd have 16 more ~20-25 years from now. This. Is. What. We. NEED

Slightly erratic, mostly sane, always a Hokie.

is that the new show they keep talking about coming out on Netflix?

FTFY.

I'm here for the memes, I just stay for the football.

Welp. I'd say this wins the internet for today

And LOTS of Tellers

Yeah, let's set Wyatt up with a pretty volleyball or soccer girl and see what we get in 18 years.

definitely go the volleyball route with that one. I knew some volleyball players at tech and they had the broadest shoulders I'd ever seen on a girl. Still feminine, mind you. If we want to create the super linemen with Teller's DNA, you've got to pair it with someone athletic, but with the right kind of frame.

I'm torn here. Volleyball players have the physique, but we've got some really good soccer players. I don't want to start throwing around terms like "genetically superior" (that's gotten quite a few people in trouble throughout history), but I wouldn't be opposed to having some top-10 national ranking mentality genes passed on in a Teller.

any girls on the wrestling team?

My high school has girls' wrestling.

Which is awesome to begin with, but especially in a place where the attitudes of the administration are usually along the lines of "Boys play football and wrestle, and girls lead the cheers and guard the colors." Or something like that.

If we got Teller together with a volleyballer even their daughters would be able to start on most O-Lines

Shot putter!
