ND has far and away the largest fan base that will be watching the network and access to ND sports will drive up carriage deals for the linear channel everywhere. And because of ND, the Chicago market (and all of Indiana) is in the ACC "footprint"...so approaching 5 million households
Meanwhile 14 ACC programs get bump in the basic network deal because of ND and ND gets only a 5th of a share.
I understand people being upset with the aloof attitude of their fanbase, but financially, there is no downside to the arrangement.

# | ASK FRENCH- What are your Hokie football questions before fall camp kicks off? I've always had in the back of my mind that the better coaching move may have been Fuente + making TGray the DC and backfilling the defensive staff with better recruiters. Tough to let Foster go, but the talent on defense is such that it is tough to let Foster stay and continue to underrecruit his side of the ball.
Ifs and buts now, but what is widely held as Fuentes biggest win (keeping Foster) may be his limiting factor in the long run.
I would even say with spurts of showings between mediocrity and elite

# | ASK FRENCH- What are your Hokie football questions before fall camp kicks off? Any idea on what the big change is from? It's the same coaches, so just the player types or a scheme thing?

You should set up your home machine for Chrome Remote Desktop, if you're permitted to. Really simple way to remote into another machine by just installing Chrome and a plugin.
The sounds right, but we'll get our cut of an ACC TV deal when ND goes to NCSt and Syracuse this year. Having a few ND games per year on the ACC TV contract does pay dividends, no? I'd rather have them boost our TV deal a little instead of not at all.
well the real shame is that I only have my animation/photo editor from 1999 on my work computer. I have photoshop at home, but rarely get on the desktop these days. So it's a real pain to isolate gifs at work and the quality is crappier than it would be from home. Also, putting one gif into another is a joke in photoshop, but painstakingly slow in what I have at work (think: drop in one frame at a time). That said, I'm going to try to make some time at home to drop sam here into some classic TKP gifs and welcome suggestions.
He was the best runner by then but they had to get him up to speed on the rest of the nuances of running back.
This should be made part of the permanent TKP archive. Want to isolate that Disappointed Tina Fey lookalike too? We'd be able to use that all over the place.

That's quite the transformation...
I read the link provided. I appreciate that he apologized and I agree that his comment was ill advised. However, I gather from [writer's] remarks that [generic college aged writer] does have some maturing to do of [pronoun] own, but I will not speculate on how long that will take, as I am no biologist/psychologist/behaviorist and everyone is different.
That is to say, a more experienced reporter, of either sex, may have finished the interview and stayed on track with intended line of questioning.

# | Virginia Tech Football Commits reach Four-star ranking as 247Sports shows them some love I wouldn't call the lower spectrum guys projects per say. Guys like Smith and Pimpleton aren't well rounded players but they have very specific traits that are elite. Fuente has a plan for those skill sets.
Our Virginia troubles is definitely worrying though. I don't know how that gets fixed

Maybe so but my point is that it wasn't necessary or effective to continue rotating 4-5 RBs
