awesome. lets make a great impression

VT CEE Class of 2016/2017

5 years, 2 degrees, 33 football games as a student, and 2 Cassell court stormings later, I bleed Maroon and Orange

As if we needed any more incentive to be loud. Side note: has anyone heard what the recruits at the Marshall game thought? That seemed to me like a fun game to play in and a crazy environment (despite the weather/opponent). I'd be interested to see what those kids thought.

StinyFTL,

Please don't copy and paste content from behind a paywall.

Thanks,

--Joe

Could you be any more obvious...pasting an ENTIRE article from behind a pay wall?? Cmon man..not fuckin cool

Yeah, I mean, I appreciate the thought/effort and the fact that I got to read it, but a simple "he enjoyed it, here's a link" would have sufficed.

Gotta love what some people up/downvote for. I know there's a curse word (ooooh ahhhh), but posting entire articles from a pay site is enough to get us shut down (FTR, I'm not trying to call you out Stiney; you didn't mean any harm). Sparko I know you could care less, but here's an effective way to get some turkey legs back.

OMG accidental downvote!!!! Someone fix for me!!!!

^ Yeah. Not trying to police the blogs, but read the Community Guidelines. Don't paste entire articles. Especially if it came from behind a pay wall.

Can we post full Brazzers "articles"?

Sexist... And a few of you of you chuckled and are now going to hell... You bastards.

"...sticks and stones may break my bones but I'm gonna kick you repeatedly in the balls Gardoki!"

My bad bros, I didn't realize I crossed a line. Won't happen again.

Someone else correct me if I'm wrong, but I do think it's ok to vaguely summarize (1-2 sentences). Maybe a grey area though.

Im still trying to get over the fact that Joe can potentially sabotage every single one of our comments. Idk why I never realized this since it is his site. I commend you Joe for shouldering that power responsibly (I know I probably wouldn't haha)

It's a post within a post. Like a cross between TKP and Inception. Am I dreaming?

Pretty much, yeah. A short (no more than a couple sentences) summary and the link to the original content (or at least where you found it) should suffice.

But, I never got to see what the post read.

Add these 2 guys too!!

your 100th turkey leg sir

Thanks!!!

it would be great if we can get them to commit

From my understanding, there will be a large amount of recruits there this weekend. Shame as the UNC game won't be as tough as originally thought, but would be nice if we blow them out. Hope the crowd shows up...

and stays past halftime festivities...

Don't sleep on this UNC crowd. They're actually a tough bunch.

What's Important Now
The Lunchpail.
The Hammer.
BeamerBall.

This UNC game will be brutal, it will go down to the last possession.

That would be awesome. I know I will be there losing my voice like always. AHHH one more turkey leg and i can finally give some out.

How do you take tweets and apply them here? Help a brotha out.

On the bottom right of a tweet there's a "More" button. Click that and copy and paste the code in the box.

VT '15

Ok when I do this it just shows a blank box with an X in the middle. I copied the embedded link. I hate computers. :(

Visitor list for this weekend. (From what I can tell from twitter)

Commits
-CJ Reavis
-Terrell Edmunds
-Tyrell Smith
-Andrew Ford
-Billy Ray Mitchell

Prospects
-Jacorian Payton - '14 LB
-Melvin Keihn - '14 DE/LB from MD
-Isaiah Ford - '14 WR from FL (Louisville Commit) Looking to play Fball and Bball
-Kendrick Holland - '14 WR from FL
-Ricky Walker - '14 DT
-Daivon Ellison - '15 CB (Tyrell Smith's teammate at Don Bosco. Seems to be close to Billy Ray as well)
-Tim Settle - '15 DT

Possible
-Greg Stroman - last I saw on twitter he was trying to make it but said he has a SAT this weekend. Would be nice to have him down along with Settle.

-Tremaine Edmunds - Seems logical that he would come with Terrell but no confirmation.

-Also looks like Tyrell Smith and Andrew Ford might be bringing a few Cedar Cliff (Ford's HS) guys as well.

Feel free to add others.

Edit #1 : Shai McKenzie said his visit will most likely be the last home game (Maryland) for us.

Edit #2 : Added Kendrick Holland to the list. (247 shows he's taking his official)

Edit #3 : Added Isaiah Ford, Melvin Keihn and Jacorien Payton to the list. (According to VTFan.com)

Great info; thanks.

It seems that Andrew Ford is loving him some Blacksburg.
He visits, then returns home to dominate in his high school games-Loeffler via osmosis.

I love the enthusiam of these kids.
Metaphysical question: Does one become a Hokie, or is one born a Hokie?

I'm a little surprised that Andrew Ford will be here again since he just visited for the Marshall game as well. I know a lot of the guys coordinated their official visits so a they would be here at the same time but still, to make that trip from PA 2 times in 3 weeks is crazy. But yea, according to Tyrell Smith he'll be here.

I love the fact that Ricky Walker will be here when Reavis, Smith and Billy Ray, our best commit recruiters will be on campus as well. Have to imagine they'll be in his ear all day.

VT '15

Sounds good to me. Sounds like he's trying to visit with his his future teammates and potential future teammates. CJ's coming, too.

Note, I have no idea what happened up at the top of this post but it I gather that something was posted that wasn't ours and appears to have been removed by Joe? Confusing.

Someone posted paid content. That's all.

VT '15

Has 247 confirmed whether or not that womens lacrosse recruit will be making her official visit the weekend of the Derps game? She has been the CJ Reavis in our recruitment of Shai...

Anyone know the latest with Ndadi (sp?)?

If you don't want to recruit clowns, don't run a clown show.

"I want to punch people from UVA right in the neck." - Colin Cowherd

Edit: The following is fan fiction and not a dig at BraggHokie's spelling of Ndadi. Here's a turkey leg to get you to 30. On a serious note, does anyone actually have an update on Nnadi? Would really love to get him and Walker then have this DT thing Settled for the next few years.

The year was 2016. Nnadi and Dadi Hi-Low the tOSU QB, ending his life. On the ensuing chest bump a spawn was created. Secreted away by coach Wiles and nurtured to become a one-man D-line, "Ndadi" was sent back in time to watch over and protect a young CJ Reavis, his mere presence causing opposing QBs to float balls Reavis' way.
True story.

What's Important Now
The Lunchpail.
The Hammer.
BeamerBall.

... and now-senior Sam Rogers allowed the one-man d-line to live, approving of its existence.

And all was well with the world.

Sam Rogers high-fived Ndadi after one particularly brilliant play during practice. Charlottesville imploded.

Ndadi is the only one capable of tackling Sam Rogers. Even then, it's simply a stalemate that Rogers concedes out of sheer respect.

"Exit light..."

And after graduation Sam & Ndadi become the newest and baddest members of the Avengers....

Hilarious. Who down voted that?

Hopefully he gets to watch us throw the heels around like rag dolls.

A decade on TKP and it's been time well spent.

3 star WR Kendrick Holland from Florida will take his official visit this weekend as well. Tall WR with an impressive offer list. This weekend is shaping up to be a pretty huge recruiting weekend.

Also can you not edit a comment after a day passes or something? Tried to add it to the list above and it would say comment posted but when I refreshed it would go back to normal. Not that it's a big deal, but just curious.

VT '15

It's there. Most likely it's a problem with your cached version of the site. I've seen that happen a couple times where I've edited something and it didn't show up, but it was there when I viewed it on another browser.

Oh, nooooow the updated comment shows up. haha

VT '15

From what I have heard, we were almost out of it for Settle until Stroman committed. I think he has been in his ear since then.

In Sam Rogers we trust.

Raymon Minor will be here as well.
This weekend is going to be HUGE recruiting wise! So many prospects visiting and all the commits can convince them to come to VT :)
