Willie confirmed today on the Baschamania podcast that Jared Haught is leaving and the replacement is already a done deal. He wouldn't say who the new addition to the coaching staff is. While it's tough to see Tech move on from one of the program's best, I think we all agree that it was time to shake things up for the upper weights and find someone that can help them take the next step. Sasso and Mullen have shown flashes and have all the athleticism, just need to be consistent. Best wishes to Haught in the future.

I think we either reserved a time or prepurchased tickets for the tea garden. Maybe you should call them. We parked in an underground garage under the music concourse. I think you enter from 10th street. Haven't been to the rehab center in the couple of times we've been to SF.

FYI the main full loop at Muir is about 2 miles and takes about 1-1/2 hours to walk. Its a totally flat walk.

What was wrong with her layups? She shot 43% inside, most of that layups. Thats 10% better than Wenzel and 5% better than Wells. She also was more selective, taking under 5 shots per game and focused on passing the ball. Every other starter + Suffren took 7+ shots inside per game.

Her 3 point shooting was spotty at 29.2% but that was still 3rd best for players in the main rotation and she only shot 2.3 attempts per game.

Thank you! Discussed your ideas with the couple we are traveling with. We now have a parking reservation at Muir for on the way from Napa to SF, but not quite when they open. Will hit the viewpoint going into SF after. Saw the marine mammal rehab center in the GG park - looks interesting - know anything about it?. It does not look like you need reservations for the Tea Garden? Did get one for Alcatraz. Also got a reservation for Yank Sing - looks awesome.

It's a really nice start. We need an actual big, but there's still a core of talent on this team. Get me a guy who can pass from the inside and two guys who can really shoot. See if Mutts and Catoor want to sue for an extra year maybe.

Thanks for posting Fireman. HokieEnginerd and I were thinking about posting something as well but we weren't sure if our accounts even worked anymore. There were several people on here that we felt would want to know...

We knew Nick for about 10 years and are glad that we were able to call him our friend/family.
Nick was.... Nick. He was an amazing person with a larger than life personality. He was a great friend (even when we joked that he didn't love us anymore when his work schedule changed and he didn't come to as many tailgates). He had a huge smile and could bring a smile to anyone's face.. He sent a text to our group at Christmas saying that he was excited about football this year and was planning to come to some games. We're going to miss him.

Thank you for starting this post. I was introduced to TKP and Joe by nephew Nick when my wife and I started to go to the football games after our son started school at Virginia Tech. Up until that time we had not experienced being at a college football game. Beamer was still the coach and we were hosting Ohio State that Labor Day weekend. Wow - the atmosphere. We were hooked. Then Nick, his dad and his brothers were telling us we had to come to Lot 18 before the games. This took our Saturdays to another level. We were warmly accepted into the TKP group with many home brewed cold ones and other beverages of our choice as I got to meet a number of you. Loved seeing Nick having a good time with you guys and he could cook, boy, could he cook along with several other chefs in the group. We can't make it to the games like we did before but because of Nick we were able to experience many good times with the TKPers. I thank you all for your sympathies and prayers. Thank you Nick ~ Uncle Dan and Aunt Trish

Sad to hear about his passing. While I didn't know him outside of this site, he sounds like he was a person most should strive to be like. As someone who's also 39 with a family with young children; it saddens me to think about what they must be going through and having to live life without him there.

Cherish every day you have with the ones you love.
