A grounds keeper at Liberty shared this video of VT's ground crew today on FB and it's pretty sweet to see all the work it takes to make the field look as great as it did on Saturday.
Based on how straight those free hand lines were, some of these guys could have careers as brain surgeons.

As someone who used to work at a sports complex this was amazing to watch. Hats off to the crew.
Either you have a severe under appreciation for the skills of brain surgeons or I have a the same for grounds keepers.
That comparison came from my dad. Having a hand that steady to keep the lines that straight is impressive. Steady hands and definitely a necessity in brain surgery. Weak correlation but it's there.
#1 retirement job:
Cutting the grass at lane once a week with a riding mower.
Just gonna go ahead and put that at the top of the list.
"once a week" LOL
Yeah, retirement job. Not the full-time guy. I just wanna do it that last time before gameday.
I feel like I've heard this before...
That's a happy man right there
I'm a bit shocked and embarrassed. Never heard that song by Johnny Cash before; I was thinking "isn't this a Moby song?". Damn.
As for the work on the grounds - that was tight. Amazed they hand draw that and I have to agree that is quite the steady hand. Awesome.
Found out they play that one at the stadium shortly before Enter Sandman. I could hear it over one of the Ohio State 360° videos and had to ask someone here what it was since I could only hear the beat. Can't remember if they played it in 2010 when I was there.
That's my favorite Cash song. Love that one.
thanks for the post. love the video
