Thanks for this, I hope you are hungry because I gave you a leg to snack on!
Dude, this is Awesome! Ford def. put on some muscle this offseason. Also a really cool graph on VT bowl streak and 16-1 record against UVA in last 17 years. It's such a dig and I'm positive it's meant for recruits to see.
Posting this when I should be going to bed?!
You bet your ass I read the whole thing! When I read the blurb about fanatical fans (a bit redundant) I thought, "I'd be a bit offended if it wasn't so #&%@ing true."
Definitely a step up from anything else the athletic department has put out in regards to content and graphics. I like it
Typo?
EDIT: and by typo I'm referring to Frank's tenure as head coach.
Rogers, Loeffler and Stinespring are not included as notable coaches in Beamer's coaching forest. Interesting list of who was and was not featured.
Frank was hired in December, 1986. So that's correct. His first season started in 1987. But as for the "present" part, well...
Laughed out loud when I got to the page where they reference winning the Garden & Gun "Best Southern College Town" award. I think we can claim that one for TKP, can't we?
You bet your sweet ass we can! Some of my most proud work of the last year came during that remarkable Cinderella run for the ages!
Can we please make sure every announcer gets this?
Oh God, not this again.
yeah. kuh-LAY-al
what's the problem?
Rhymes with Real...
I knew he'd be back...
KEAVINNE........Ke-Vin
Some tough ones on there. My simple brain never had Ekanem right in my internal speaker system, I certainly don't have Houshun, Nijman, Shibest, Cornelsen or even Jerod (I keep saying "He Went to Jareds!").
And Der'woun.....no chance. I just assume he only goes by Greene.
Excellent. Needed something to get me thru this afternoon lull...
Pardon a dumb question but is the printed version of the guide normally available at the stadium on game days? (I'm not sure if they even bother with a printed version anymore.)
I got printed programs at the two games I attended this past year. But they're nothing nearly as extensive as the guide discussed here.
This is a media guide handed out to, well, the media for the ACC days. It is online for everyone, but not something that is available to buy. You would have to have an inside connection to get one, presumably. Gameday programs are still handed out every home game.
I know it's available every year as one of the "add ons" on my season ticket renewal form. If you call the ticket office, they'd probably be happy to sell you a copy.
There are printed programs available on gamedays for free, but they are just a few pages and related to that particular game.
Thanks for the replies.
