Is there any word if he is planning on going to our Spring Game this weekend?
yeah, he is scheduled to be there for the day of the spring game. Pretty good looking list of prospects and tech football alumni. hopefully the good ole boys can impress them and show them what tech is all about.
Any chance you can list those planning on being there on here? I don't pay for pay sites.
I have to 86 that, posting information from a free source is fine, but grabbing premium content behind a paywall and dumping it here isn't. I'll see what I can dig up.
By the way, Mike Farrell of Rivals feels the same.
here is a full list of predictions from 247

Even one of the Michigan Insiders picked VT.
and a loluva insider

Here is a link to an interview with Hand. He says VT "feels like home." Note that he is changing his major to sports management from engineering.
Guess he is getting a "going pro" degree?
Heeeelllooooo Da'Shawn, there's a Cookout in Blacksburg as well big guy.
Do we even have "Sports Management" or something comparable?
The closest I've ever seen is Hospitality and Tourism Management, which is what I am.
A lot of the athletes do HNFE, no?
Yes,
Health Nutrition Fitness and Exercise I think. Great way to align your studies with your career goals.
*Human Nutrition, Foods, and Exercise
Hmm...if he were pursuing engineering, then I'd say we were a top 2. Now that he's changing, I'd say we fall behind Florida and Michigan. The only real positive he had to say about South Carolina was "the food is off tha shizzle dizzle". Once he grubs at West End we'll knock them out of the running. I'm feeling less confident now, unfortunately. Education is a big deal to this cat; maybe he'll reconsider engineering?
If he sticks with engineering we have a brand new building for him.

They are installing a Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 jet engine, weighing roughly 15,000 pounds, inside the atrium of the
building. It is about 10' in diameter.
So that's where my tuition went. Meanwhile half my classes were in Surge and Litton-Reaves. Can you tell I'm bitter?
Actually the 45 million dollar building was funded by three donations.
Yeah....three. Crazy.
whats the building going to be named?
Blame Glennon
Funny thing is, Sean took over my freshman year at VT. Several years later I go to NC State for grad school, where his brother was BMOC. I couldn't escape that fucking family.
I'm a Tampa Bay fan, I feel the same way.
I'm not making any predictions in regards to how good he will be, but unlike what I've heard about Sean, Mikey's a real good guy. Went to hs with him and he was incredibly humble, was universally liked, and never caused any problems.
I guess its just another example (MV5/MV7 being the original inverse example) of how you can't judge a player by their older brother.
Found out at the Spring Game, one of my friends lives in Sean's apartment complex. Now my buddy is strongly considering moving to a new complex!
