# | David Teel: Babcock, Fuente, & others to re-examine future football schedules Damn it his name is Kenny.
Rare footage of Syracuse recruiting under Dino Babers
Sky top is the only official place I know of without some kind of pass.
Dino Babers thinks Heather Dinich is an analyst with a strong understanding of college athletics.

# | David Teel: Babcock, Fuente, & others to re-examine future football schedules VT has certainly improved in this area.
They're doing a decent job, but doesn't hurt to indicate a preference for more P5 matchups, and to tap the brakes on an every-year ECU or ODU matchup.

I love this and the hard work put into it. The world is mess and my escape is this site. By the end of October I plan on joining!

# | Heather Dinich, please tell us what you think about Virginia Tech this year.... I don't think I've ever seen a thread just completely meltdown like this when it's not during a game. This is what HD wants. She wants us to turn ourselves. We can't let her do this to us.

Beware the backdoor cover, like a Stanford D-lineman returning a fumble for a touchdown, on a UCLA hail mary attempt to win the game, to cover.

# | Heather Dinich, please tell us what you think about Virginia Tech this year.... She is objectively the worst reporter in all of football. If you ever read her articles written while she was still covering the ACC, it was obvious that she didn't even watch the games. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if I found out that she isn't a fan of college football or football in general. Sorry to join the hate train, but there's a reason why there is so much animosity towards her.

# | Heather Dinich, please tell us what you think about Virginia Tech this year.... Yeah, I'd say the big highlight was the ban hammer. It's used so little around here it's sort of interesting to see what it takes for it happen. Hopefully it won't be needed again for a while though.

First of all, please don't tear Bible verses out of their intended context and use them for secular purposes, it bothers those of us in ministry. Second, politics and religion are not discussed on this site, it is for VT sports specifically and VT news in general. While I greatly enjoy discussing theology, the Bible and spiritual life with believers of all stripes and secularists alike, I refrain from doing so here because I honor the Community Guidelines. I humbly suggest you read them and do the same. Respectfully submitted.
something something RB rotation...
The reason I said it'd be possible for him to go undrafted is simply because Guards are one of the lowest valued players on the field.
According to ESPN, 17 guards were drafted in 2015 (3 in the first 2 rounds) out of a pool of 113 prospects.
Compare that to 23 tackles (9 in the first 2 rounds) out of 147 prospects.
The only field that was worse in terms of # drafted was FB. So, unless Wyatt is told he's a lock for going during a round of guaranteed money, I don't think it'd benefit him to leave. I also don't think his pass protection is at a level that will show an NFL team they need to draft him. If I was a GM, I'd take the gamble that he'll be available to pick up at a better value after the draft.

Dino Babers thought this deal was getting worse all the time.
Now he thinks this deal is very fair and he's glad to be a part of it.
We undoubtedly had a ton of success between the Vick era and 2011, and I don't mean to downplay that. We weren't supposed to dominate the ACC, but that's exactly what we did. The problem though was that we continually came up short on the national stage even while we were consistently winning the ACC.
With all those ACC titles and 10+ win seasons, it's disappointing to me that we only came away with one BCS bowl win. In big OOC games and bowls, we really lost a lot of national respect and credibility during that time.
I think not making a bigger effort to grow the Hokie Club after the MV7 years, investing more in recruiting, and adopting an effective offensive system were huge missteps that kept us from being truly elite. We definitely established ourselves as a national brand, but we didn't stay ahead of the curve and use that momentum as a springboard to the top. I realize we will never be a blue blood program, but only a handful of schools are. FSU, Clemson, Oregon, etc. have reached the top without being a historical blue blood, and I think the potential of this program can reach those levels under the right leadership. I think we are in excellent hands with Whit and Fuente.

# | Heather Dinich, please tell us what you think about Virginia Tech this year.... Interesting. I haven't read much of his stuff recently, but to my memory his score predictions were always relatively aligned with whatever the national consensus was.
That said, is a 35 point spread really that bold of a prediction? It's pretty in line with what we did to similarly talented BC and ECU. It's a little bold, but not out of reason for a neutral observer.

# | Heather Dinich, please tell us what you think about Virginia Tech this year.... Is she a poll voter? Makes me wonder if she'd take it far enough to keep us out of the playoff in the future, not necessarily this season, out of spite. Say it was a 1-loss VT team that won the ACC and a 1-loss Big XII team.
Shut your mouth!

# | Heather Dinich, please tell us what you think about Virginia Tech this year.... It definitely wasn't his greatest moment, but considering the body of work the man has put out, I don't think that night is representative of AB or his attitude towards VT sports.
We all have stuff we wish we hadn't said.
Anyone here who would like to see more wvu games has never been to Organtown for a night game.
