New name. Same team. Same goal.

So now the team has two twitter accounts. Weird to no longer have beamerball.

Just what the team needs. Two twitter accounts. Yesterday, y'all were pooping on that guy in the PR thread, but two twitter accounts seems pretty pointless.
Maybe they'll work like ESPN shows and just argue with what the other said...
Link for PR thread?
It's been like this for awhile.
Kinda hate to see BeamerBall go when they still have another game to play...
Pete and Thomas didn't talk about this beforehand.
Well VT screwed this up, they gave up the handle altogether and some random guy now has it.
Thomas Guerry is the director of high school relations. So not a random guy.
He means this guy: https://twitter.com/beamer_ball
I think he meant the @beamerball twitter handle has been picked up by some random person, not Guerry handling the vt handle
Don't worry y'all, BeamerBall.com is still around, and still unchanged since 1996!
oh snap! well done.
out with the beamerball, in with the justintime
Has anyone seen this site before?

Best thing I've found is the Twitter directory, thus we can confirm if a certain coach really is on a particular Twitter handle. It also has EVERY Twitter handle of anyone associated with the program, from players to media.

What's funny is their website shows the latest tweets from Mr. Anderson (@beamer_ball), the guy who just took the handle, and there is a big fat "Hello!" tweet sitting down there. Hope they clean that up quick. They're lucky Mr. Anderson hasn't tweeted out anything blasting the Hokies or anything explicit in nature.
The guy that got it is a TKPer.

It's Bob, dude. Bob Anderson. You know Bob, right?
This guy?
I'm sure the school could buy it back for a couple of turkey legs
If so, why hasn't he tweeted a gif of our very own horse on a treadmill? Seeing that on the VT recruiting site would have me committing right on the spot!

I mean, no, not really.
I think the VT Twitter accounts have been VERY sloppy.
Its not a serious issue, but this was bungled and seems somewhat par for the course so far. I approve of the beefed up engagement - we were way behind the times previous to Whit taking over but the growing pains have been...frustrating.
Anyone who knows anything about inertia knows that going from 0-100mph immediately typically messes some stuff up initially. Things aren't perfect, but we went from virtually no social media presence to staffers dedicated to it pretty much overnight. I'm not surprised there are some things that need to be tweaked/cleaned up in that department.
