...and so is losing to Eastern Carolina
The true home of the art lies in Blacksburg, and the secrets are heavily guarded by Wyatt Teller
I don't know where to put this, but Wabissa Bede (a highly rated 4 star PG) is starting to trend our direction in the last couple of days. http://247sports.com/Player/Wabissa-Bede-85349. The future looks bright, friends.

Mason's back!!!
As always, fantastic analysis. Now we wait for the obligatory, "Nice write-up, French" comment.
Anyone else read this and have to go back and count? I saw
Mason, Mook, and Facyson are my 2 fave players on defense.
I disagree that Mook is light years ahead of Cody. Cody could cover, support the run and blitz. I believe that is the whole package. He did it for a full season while Mook has done it for 3 games. Give me a Senior Cody Grimm all day every day.
I hope not. It's not taunting, and it's not really showboating. It just shows he's having a good time.
I, too, noticed the lack of celebration vs BC, but I interpreted it as more of a chip on Jerod's shoulder after Bristol.
Death Backer University, where enemies enter and their souls taken.
Welcome to the Terror Dome.
about that..I noticed that Evans' TD celebration was basically non-existent vs BC. I wondered if maybe he had a lil talkin' to over the archery celebration he did vs Liberty
I guess that all depends on how far you want to walk and if you want to pay and which direction you're heading after the game.
- Price's Fork public lots: $20. Relatively easy to get out to 460 because you're the cars causing the headache for everyone else. You can tailgate here so that's a plus. Not terribly close to the stadium, but nothing without a pass will be except for...
- Harris St/Center St./Houston St, etc: This is the neighborhood behind the tennis courts. Super close, but you're at the mercy of what people charge. My sister charged $20/car to park behind their house on clay st back in 2000 so I'm sure that's changed. Also, many/most of the lots are permit only so you could get towed. Also, there's a ginourmous bottleneck when you try to leave.
- McBryde Village (my favorite because I lived there). Right across price's fork from Goodwin Hall. Go down a few blocks and you've got free on street parking. If you're headed west on 460, this is your best bet. Not a short walk by any means, but you'll move faster than cars and can shoot right up tom's creek to make your escape. Not tailgate friendly, so be sure to stop by Lot 18 on your way to the stadium.
- Gables shopping center. Not terribly close, but you have a nice walking path that will get you to the stadium without having to deal with cars. Also, if you want to hit up a restaurant after the game, 1st and main usually takes a while to fill up because most people are driving there and you'll beat them by walking.
- Then there's all your shuttle lot options, but that BT bus isn't moving any faster than any of the other cars so I err on the side of walking rather than driving/riding.
Also, remember that South Gate is, for all intents and purposes, shut down at this point as they work on the new interchange. So don't expect to get in or out that way very easily.
Thanks a million, Mason. Mook and Facyson are my 2 fave players on defense.
Is the only time I will support someone wanting to be a Nickelback rockstar....
you know if we don't score more than 34 points everyone is going to blame you, right?
I know I am

# | Examining Mook Reynolds' Role as Virginia Tech's Nickelback OH MAH GAWD, OH MAH GAWD, ITS MASON'S MUSIC, MASON'S BAK, MASON'S BAK!
Great read by the way, thanks!
Never Forget!!!
Good to see you back Mason! Great article!
boss!!
Not going to lie but maroon jersey and pants would look so nice with this helmet, would make the orange POP much better than having the white pants
I am confident in Mook's coverage abilities against most athletes. If Tech does face an athlete that Mook can't handle, it'll be up to Foster to decide how he wants handle it strategically.
Does Foster want to be more conservative? In that case I'd suspect we'd see press coverage with Mook in the slot and give him safety help over the top.
Does Foster want to stay aggressive and stop the run? In that case I'd suspect we'd see more off coverage, with Safeties focused on stopping the run and providing underneath zone coverage so Mook can give ground and not get beat over the top.
