# | Mehul Sanghani re-appointed by Governor Spanberger to the VT Board of Visitors today If that were the case, man, I wouldn't mind having his problems.
Boom!
Must've smoked a doobie with him out on the ranch, lol.
Yeah I like Teel but he's an ACC big picture columnist. He gets a bit nostalgic or gleeful at times about UVA or UNC which isn't great for a VT fan podcast. But I guess it's the intersection of what TSL is trying to do now with Bitter and bringing more formal journalism from certain angles.

# | Mehul Sanghani re-appointed by Governor Spanberger to the VT Board of Visitors today I read it was from Brad Hobbs (current BOV member.) That's the rumor anyway.
Build That Wall
We just got the Four for Four. We have 4 defensive line commits for the class of 2027😤🤣
Thanks for posting Skippy. That song is beautiful
HA HA CLINTON-DIX!
Still remember hearing the VT acapella group sing the below song in double 4 part harmony (wish I had a recording of it still. The embed is below the lyrics of another group that had the closest to the sound I remember from back then)-good thing this is a virtual forum or there would be tear stains on these words...
While written in 1993 about war in eastern Europe, it was all to apropos for 4/16/2007...
The Prayer of the Children by Kurt Bestor
Can you hear the prayer of the children
Abandoned in the shadow of an unknown room
Empty eyes with no more tears to cry
Turning heavenward toward the light
Crying Jesus help me to see the morning light
Of one more day
But if I should die before I wake
I pray my soul to take
Can you feel the hearts of the children
Aching for home
For something of their very own
Reaching hands with nothing to hold on to
But hope for a better day
A better day
Crying Jesus help me to feel the love again
In my own land
But if unknown roads lead away from home
Give me loving arms
Away from arms
Can you hear the voice of the children
Softly pleading for silence in a shattered world
Angry guns preach a gospel full of hate
Blood of the innocent on their hands
Crying Jesus help me to feel the sun again
Upon my face
For when darkness clears I know you're near
Bringing peace again
Da li čujete sve dječe molitve
Can you hear the prayer of the children
Think it was only one or two. Portal now has evolved to where he gets better options than guys he had, especially with the budget Maryland gave him.
Feeling good about 4 pm
Just passed by the memorial and it had a good number of visitors. I always choke up seeing the cadets standing watch in honor of the fallen. It is a somber day, but today is beautiful in Blacksburg and a reminder of how we can heal from tragedy, even if the progress is slow.
Wow, didn't realize it's been that long 😢
Can't believe next year will be twenty years later! More than half of current students weren't even alive back then. Damn it's hard being old....
I'll tell you what- while not huge the string of improvements to football facilities is coming on fast at a place where things don't always move fast. Merriman Lobby, Football taping room reno reviews in just the past few days.
We still prevail! This day and 9/11 were my two worst days as a federal agent. Powerless to stop deeply evil men from harming my fellow Hokies/Americans. Never forget.

# | Tim Sands: "Power 4 Leaders Must Act Before College Athletics Becomes Unsustainable" Stop making sense, profitable college sports are all about emotionalism and greed. Logic and sound fiscal decisions have no seat at the table.
How many players did he take with him this last time?
We did prevail!
Both thoroughly enjoyed hearing the stories and also felt that yearning for "goodness sakes I hope we have a future beyond reminiscing about the good old days of the program like Bud tells so well."
They must have missed the memo where it says your first year under Buzz you will be horrible. You'd think after multiple stops people would learn
Thank you for that post. His sickening love for Bronco soured me on him, and I'm glad someone else gets rankled.
All season long Maryland fans trashed Buzz and were calling for him to be fired ...but now that he has the #1 overall recruiting class HS/Portal, they are bandwagon claiming they fully supported him, cant wait to see what he does next season, knew he was the right coach for them....Terps clown school
Another One!!!
