Render also wanted to be part of O Line coaching. He does a really good job talking up Virginia Tech so imagine he would do a good job at motivation and keeping guys focused.

Would be a long ride from California...

I have taken the Amtrak pacific surfliner several times (from San Diego to LA). It's usually a good way to go, but sucks when it gets behind. Gorgeous view of the ocean.

When I see shit like this, it's infuriating. How in the fuck was this even a remote possibility? Why would you have any flight pattern that came within miles of the by the book landing path of all commercial flights into a major airport?

The GPS approach into RWY 33 has a 3.1 degree glide slope, which means at the 3300 feet from the runway they would be at about 175-200'. That's the same altitude reported by the helicopter. pic.twitter.com/Qk4PCPT6vk— Scott Manley (@DJSnM) January 30, 2025

Again, we are going to come away from this wondering how the hell we allowed this to even be a remote possibility. I guarantee you that if we scour flight logs over the years it's going to be littered with near misses. Which is completely and utterly unacceptable because we have learned these lessons from previous incidents and we did implement procedures to not have it happen again.

Man, I don't know if I am just really unlucky or if others are just really lucky when it comes to Amtrak, but going on the Northeast Corridor Route from Philadelphia to New York or Boston or Washington DC, I find that their on time performance is maybe around 10%. And they almost never tell you that the train is late until arrival time and then it switches to 5 minutes late ... then 15 minutes late ... then 1 hour late ... then ...

Also find that it is rarely less expensive than flying and can be quite a bit more. But that differs from trip-to-trip.

On the plus side, will say it is a lot more comfortable than flying once you actually get on the vehicle that is supposed to take you form point A to point B. And from Philadelphia to New York or Washington it is actually faster than flying when you take into account how early you are supposed to get to the airport vs. how early you are supposed to get to the train station. Also usually more convenient at my destination as I'm normally going somewhere in New York/Boston/Washington DC and the station is close by downtown while airports (other than DCA) usually are further away.

Sergio Render has expressed interest in the role...I don't know what the role does, or what qualifications Sergio has, but found it interesting

I am interested in this position.— Sergiorender70 (@sergiorender70) January 30, 2025

maybe ND has a truck, but she is in the Caitlin Clark camp of getting real NIL deals and not needing the pay for play version

Kind of hoping that ND caught the flu on the way over. Might be the best way we could win if their players aren't 100%.

Anybody else surprised LSU or USCe hasn't backed a truck of NIL money up for Hannah?

If you book ahead of time, I have always found it cheaper than flying. I can get on the train in Roanoke and get to DC about the same time it would have taken to drive but a lot more relaxing.
