Air Force at Navy (USNA -11.5)
⁹ Texas at Florida (Tx -6.5)
²⁴ hoo? at Louisville (UL -6.5)
¹⁶ Vanderbilt at ¹⁰ Alabama (Alabama. -10.5)
³ MiamiFla. at ¹⁸ Florida State (Mia. -4.5)
Duke at California (Duke -2.5)
As a matter of principle, I'm going to start keeping track of what my scores would be if I simply pick the team I want to lose the game. If this works out, maybe I'll formally join next season. You can't join in the middle, right?
Air Force at Navy (USNA -11.5) Although I like both, had to pick one
⁹ Texas at Florida (Tx -6.5) Although I am not a fan of either, dislike Texas
²⁴ hoo? at Louisville (UL -6.5) This should be obvious
¹⁶ Vanderbilt at ¹⁰ Alabama (Alabama. -10.5) Sick of Alabama
³ MiamiFla. at ¹⁸ Florida State (Mia. -4.5) Although I dislike both, dislike Miami more
Duke at California (Duke -2.5) Frosty's #1 is Baylor, but UCLA Bruins are #2, so have to root against Cal (the only Bears team he dislikes)
I feel like this would be hilarious to watch though, especially if it catches on.
Imagine the buckeyes run the entire script Ohio before they can get to the bench

# | Hokies unveil a new NMA helmet for Homecoming / 🟠Orange Effect🟠 and the team will have to run all the way through the marching band's VT logo formation at the end of Sandman
He was with SANIL for a couple years and does financial planning stuff now. (As it turns out, there is not a ton of money in the NIL business if you are not a player, agent, or a coach...)
I'm a fan of all orange everything, but I just don't like this much white... our colors are maroon and orange, lean into it!
SET THE TONE!

# | Hokies unveil a new NMA helmet for Homecoming / 🟠Orange Effect🟠 We'll have checkerboard end zones next!
Yea I connected with him on LinkedIn a while back and it came up recently
Facts. We have 3 kids under 4 and both work. My wife's employer subsidizes at least 60% of daycare costs. Otherwise we'd be paying $60k+/year for childcare.
The model for daycare is so broken. Because most families need two working parents to afford a child, demand has shot up, but supply is limited because (a) it's a brutal fucking job, and (b) it's subject to a lot of (very reasonable) regulation.
I really thought that the politicians who preach about family values and making it easier for families would have at least proposed legislation that allows us to write off all childcare expenses - this is literally the absolute lowest effort thing they could do to help a few people in the middle class - but no, that would ask to much.
Dam dave, we ARE old, ain't we?
Edit: I guess he joined his dad (also named John) in wealth management...
Yeah that's a lot better, updated the OP with the correct coloring.
As for what's next, there are some rumors floating on other sites (TSL) right now that Whit is going to announce his departure from VT tomorrow or Monday.
Who knows how credible, it probably isn't at all, but worth keeping an eye on just in case. The same person said the replacement is coming in as a "CEO of Athletics" and the candidates are all heavily NFL based, with some notables from the Bucs and Colts front office.
reminds me of the Charlie Coffey era...no thanks
The shoulder numbers are definitely maroon, but it was the helmet that was described as NMA.
Agreed.

# | Hokies unveil a new NMA helmet for Homecoming / 🟠Orange Effect🟠 I'm still not crazy about orange as a base color, but this is 1000% better.

The pics I've seen on social media make the orange look more VT and less that shit school down I-81. More of the modern blaze orange look we've seen rather than creamsicle. Who knows what they look like in person it seems our colors vary year to year.
Infrastructure improvements to several of facilities to improve the athlete and fan experience
I think this is being overlooked and is almost always thought of as new stadiums. Really Tech needs to be thinking about how to make attending events on campus as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Tech needs fans telling people "it's good on TV but you just have to be there to feel it". Getting alumni back to campus more frequently will rekindle fond memories and help bolster that VT is part of their identify which is the ultimate way to build a brand.
This means getting people into the stadium seamlessly, easy access to concessions to avoid shorter lines (vendors walking the stands with tap to pay from phone or card), transportation and parking solutions to avoid long car lines, etc. Work on eliminating reasons not to come or watch the seats on the couch continue to be more enticing than seats in the stands.
The piping around the numbers up front is maroon as well, as is the Hokie Bird headshot just underneath the collar V. Its also hard to tell if the shoulder numbers on the side are all maroon.
