Last season's ahead-of-schedule twenty wins and 10-8 ACC record fast-tracked the Hokies hype train on the hardwood for 2016-17. Buzz Williams' third season in Blacksburg has the promise for a highly successful Virginia Tech basketball campaign. There's nine days until Tech's season opener. Click play and get buzzed.

Fuck. Yes.
This gets me hype.
I'm glad I could do what I was going for!
This is an excellent video!
Now start studying so we can have you around next year, too!
Rock the Cassell.
You could use two steps from hell for every hype video and I'd be totally ok with that.
My only complaint is not seeing Seth Allen emerging from an ice bath dancing to my boo
Phenomenal job. Cannot wait for the season to start
I've never been this excited for VT basketball! Cassel is gonna be rocking and it's going to be beautiful!
holy cow...that's one helluva hype video...awesome work!
Excellent video my man.
I've done it. I've gotten the Dozer "Chuck Norris thumbs up of approval"
Happy Birthday to me!
My reaction when the basketball hype video comes out
Great Video! Love how you ended with the last play of UVA game and Perrantes going down. Man, that guy's hair really annoys me, idk why, but it does.
Perrantes annoys me in general. So happy to see him go after this season.
Yes. Yes. And more Yes.
That made me feel old as fuck.
Get buzzed. Love the video.
I think I had forgotten about Seth Allen. I think of this team as Med Hill and Bibbs and Leday and Clarke and Outlaw and KJB. A year ago, I had the success of the season pinned on Allen. He's a good player, can take over games. He was a big part of most of the big wins last year. Excited to see him play again.
Boooom! Nice!
Now do an ALL-BUZZ video. 10 minutes of just him reacting to basketball plays on the court.
Anyone know Devin Wilson's plans as the basketball season begins?
How much has he actually seen the field? At this point can we just call this a ploy to open up another bball scholly?
We asked him at basketball media day a few weeks back. He said he hadn't talked to Buzz or CJF at that point, so he wasn't sure how it would transition.
Here's my story from that day with his answers: http://www.thekeyplay.com/virginia-tech-basketball/2016/10/12957/buzz-wi...
who all will be at the season opener on Nov 11th? It's the night before the Georgia Tech game. Let's set the standard early for an awesome year at the Cassell!
Me.
I'm there. My season tickets just got delivered today. I'm a happy dude.
Me and my cousin will be there.
Hell yea! and Fuck Pat Narduzzi!
I want a nice concise printable version of the Men's B-ball schedule. HokieSports version is just not my cup of tea. Anyone seen one that meets my description above?
Great trailer...thanks! BTW, from the team picture and from the listed height & weight from the roster on Hokie sports, it looks like Tyrie has put on some weight. He's listed at 205 on the roster, while I think he was around 180 in high school.
WE BALLIN'
Side note: Does anyone know how tall Chris Clarke really is? He's listed at 6'6", but Ahmed Hill is listed at 6'5" and looks a lot shorter than Chris in the team picture.
We'll have to stand him next to Bucky Hodges to find out. Tape measures don't go high enough.
Damn, 3,500 views in 24 hours. Y'all are amazing. Can't wait to see Cassell packed on next Friday!
