Here's the thing (and I'm not too worried about OU, given their recent hires): OU alum wealth means they can basically print money. Given that kind of budget, OU can recruit top tier talent, pay top tier coaches, and build top tier facilities. That is the formula which could pull CJF away.

If by have fun with it you mean dress like Syracuse, nope.

Just like they wedge Let's Go Hokies at a standard time now. Used to be done more on an "as needed" basis rather than an "always needed" basis.

Ironically, the Hokie Bird underwent a darker to lighter transition in the early 90s, about 1993 IIRC. From the "incorrect" to "correct" shade of Chicago Maroon. Put that in your useless VT trivia bag.

Haven't paid much attention to the precise color since I suited up.

This does not have enough legs, by a factor of at least 50. Mainly because that' sort of what I thought...it looked folded.

Seeing as how it's got nearly no fans, I'm going to disagree with this assertion.

Wishful thinking for me, but why go to a place where 8 wins is a failure of a season? Extra stress, unrealistic expectations, all for extra money. "Momma said there's only so much fortune a man really needs and the rest is just for showing off." -Forrest Gump

Alludes (if tangentially) to one of the reasons I put my $ here, instead of the echo chamber that is typical VT beat reporting. Especially with the new VT FB staff...nobody's breaking anything, so you don't put your energy into that rat race. Here I get different analysis that has actual depth.
