God Bless Slamball....

This was the Ebaum's world vid that defined my freshman year at Tech... sincerely I thank you for posting this

I also propose THE CAGE FIGHT: picking which movies are: not the best, not the worst, but "the most Nicolas Cage"

Me: "Oh all seeing all knowing Portal, please bless us with talent and spare us from taking our beloved 'croots."
The Portal:

I always think about how Tyrod turned down more money with the Broncos to play for the Bills:
That season Peyton was struggling and Osweiler came in for a few games. Had it been Tyrod, he could have lit it up in the Kubiak offense. Not to mention a defense that carried a 50% Manning to a Super Bowl victory.
Tyrod could have taken the starting role and never given it back. Thus becoming a super bowl champion....
Sigh, it's all so perfect in my head.
Hope he wins the starting job on the Chargers and tears it up.

The more money spent usually equates to a better recruiting class.

This graph is taken from a good article breaking it down.

Interestingly enough. VT came in at #40 in recruiting spending and landed Fourteen 4/5 star recruits. That's more 4/5* recruits than 23 schools that spent more than VT. (LOLuva was #27 with only One 4/5* to show for it) So it shows our coaches are doing more with less. Imagine what they would be able to do with more cash.

So here's the good news. We have the power to change the program's trajectory with our wallets. So we can post hand wringing comments about how we demand better, or we can create better.
We can blame coaches for being crappy recruiters and sit on our pocket books, or we can put these guys in a position to win with the recruits.
Maybe if we get VT into the top 15 of recruiting spending, then we can start making top 10 recruiting class demands.

You sure? They come with chicken...

This might explain why Guntar is the way he is:
My dad, every year since I've been married, buys one of those cheesy Hobby Lobby Santa figures and modifies it with something super dark:
One year it was a bloody snow shovel and an eyepatch. Another year it was a severed reindeer head by his festive axe.
He then hides this item somewhere in my house when I'm not paying attention for my wife or I to find.

He isn't a kid, grown ass clown man.

Last time we lost we wore this uniform combo here. Damn I forgot about that. Somebody gotta do their googles— Beta Mode (@BrendenHill) November 29, 2019
