Very cool to see that Whit has won the UA AD of the year award. He truly has been the lynch-pin hire for us!

Under Armour, you say?

I have no idea why my username is VT_Warthog.

Arkansas blew a 24-0 lead in the Belk Bowl.

I heard his kids were going to get their own show. Hope they are saner than Dad was.

Now what I'm gonna do is sneak over there and shove my thumb right up the jaguar's butt. This aught to really piss him off...

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
“I served in the United States Navy"

Bookmarking this thread for the eventual "what the hell is Whit thinking" meltdown when the new football uniforms are revealed this summer.

Time for Nike to take notice.

...That's what Maryland does.

I don't give a damn what the fans think cause, quite frankly, I know what the fans want better than they do.

Whit's reaction when Buzz takes us to the NCAAs again.

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

Are feathers going to be on the next uniform release? Does Nike know? Are we cheating on Nike?

I dunno, these would look sick in maroon, chrome, and orange

Well, I know I'M NOT CONVINCED about feathers on the uniform.

That photo isn't going to change my mind about it.

Why does it look like the QBs head is photoshopped into that picture?

One of four? Why four?

We all know he's THE Athletic Director of the Year.

Probably because of the unis.

So happy for Whit, so scared that the attention will lead to a blue blood offering to double his salary.

Now that is scary, you are not right Alum.

BTW, congrats on the impressive Turkey Leg count, second place behind Guitarman is something to be proud of any day....

Did I do that right GM?

Very cool to see the continuing praise, and some very august company to be with for Whit. Well all know Whit has big things growing here at Tech, but the other 3 are very much national fixtures be it for the departments they run, the positions they hold in the NCAA or CFP management.

We should expect nothing less from Whit as he goes forward, even if I don't expect him to fill in and coach any Orange Bowls for us in the near future.
