Off season started with the Belk Bowl ending, silly!

Directions from Blacksburg to whoville, go north till you smell it then go east until you step in it

normally I fill my time with obsessively tracking the commonwealth clash...[checks standings]...yep, I'm boned.

You need to adopt a hockey team. Football starts in late August and effectively concludes in January, which is about when hockey starts to get really interesting. The NHL playoff (best postseason in all of sport IMO) starts in April and ends in June.

Then you go to the beach, and before you know it minicamps start.

I agree with the best post-season in all of sports remark.

"Nooooooooooo!"
~What happened?
"James Franklin to Virginia Tech...."
~Fuck me......*sigh*
"Oh my God.... They're gonna take all our recruits... like WTF bro...."
~*squints eyes in disbelief*

Yep, NHL is amazing this time of year. Well, all times of the year, but especially this time of year.

I try to adopt hockey every year but it never sticks. I think it's because i never played it unlike football, basketball, baseball

I don't know why but your comment reminded me of Ken. lol

Let's Go

HOKIES

Let's start a campaign to get the Spring game televised. Gotta do something with our spare time.

Serious question: what's the off-season slate of content look like this year?

Lots of user generated off topic threads, like always.

I've seen it mentioned that they have a lot of French content on incoming freshmen class. I think perhaps an end of season type review as well.

If Henry continues putting out basketball film reviews like he dropped this am, that's very exciting as well.

And for what it's worth, that and the post I wrote is available for everyone to read.

I would expect film breakdowns, interviews, and columns.

Hell yeah oxford comma. I knew I joined for a reason.

And VT needs every single one of them to get ready for next year.

"When I was growing up, Virginia Tech was a school that was kicking ass and taking names, and it's time we get back to that" - James Franklin

but Spring Game is in April...well its something

Last chance u should come out in July

Spend the Spring watching all the Bowl highlights

Hokies, Local Soccer, AFC Ajax, Ravens

Well that is jst depressing. hopefully the XFL is entertaining to get us to springball and the draft

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"

But we're a basketball school now so the season is still going...../s

1-0 every week

Honestly, with the way CMY has got this team started you can almost drop off the "s/"

Oh come on Kop, you know it's time to double down focus on European football, CL knockouts coming up, etc!

The long, long offseason gets tough later on, but honestly there are some football seasons that are so stressful I really enjoy the first few months of increased weekend freedom.

I know...it's just that college football is a bit special, isn't it-gonna miss it. And watching re-runs of games ain't gonna cut it for me.

As a teacher, I've realized it helps my mental health to count Fridays. So in this case, only 32 more Saturdays until College Football!

There's no glory in practice and lifting but without practice and lifting, there will be no glory!

When will the ACC announce the schedules for next year? We are always the last conference to put out the schedule. And I don't understand why. Never mind, John Swofford, that's right.

If the last 2 years are good examples, the 2020 football schedule should be released this week. The last two seasons were released on Jan 17 and Jan 16.
