Let me put it another way I've been a hokey club member since 1997 I give $250 a year to buy four seats in the section that my seats are in. Now are going to be $600 PER SEAT that's $2400 and I am not going to raise my donation level from $250 a year to $2400 a year how many people who sit near me and are out there in the same situation. Most likely I'm going to move up to a much higher seat where my current seats will now be unfilled because you already have thousands of available seats in the corner of the stadium, and there's not enough people willing to become Golden Hokies IMO

Yea it is, if you donate at the Golden Hokie Level, $2,500, you qualify for 3 tickets in best section, $800 a seat.

Hey all! I've lurked for awhile, finally took the plunge.

While this may be a low sum to you, for people like me it is a huge increase. It will likely mean that in '17 or '18 I will have to move to the other side of the stadium, or give up my season tix. Selling is an option, but are you really going to get $94 (and up) on a seat for ODU, Furman, Delaware?

Yes, Tech should be getting more from alums and fans to help with costs. I agree. But punching some of us in the mouth with it is not good business.

Sweet. But, I've never been a huge fan of the solid white away unis. White over maroon? I like that, even if it does look like A&M. Short of that, at least the strips beaks the white a little. Never did like them on the homes.

Hooker taking on all suitors instead of committing, never saw that coming

Yep. I understand what they are trying to do, but I think they should have focused on getting more people involved with the Hokie Club and donating (50-60 dollar minimums) than holding out their hand and asking for more from the people who have continued supporting the team through the down years recently. I just joined the HC last year, and I will have to triple my annual donation to keep my three current seats (which weren't anywhere near the top tier anyway).

Nice messages from the Gaines and Alexander. Being a college kid presents a lot of learning experiences, hopefully they learn from their mistake and move onward and upward. I would be surprised if Fuente nixed them from the team completely, but unfortunately they caught him at a bad time in having to set a precedent right out of the gate. Go too soft and risk more guys pushing the rules and getting in trouble, come down too hard and maybe lose some players thinking he is a martinet. If this was the SEC, they would be suspended for one half of a game of their choosing, but I'm not saying that is a good thing.

Why are you reading it that way? The minimum cost for the top tier tickets is LOW, 800 a year per seat in giving.

Am I the only one who thinks that the middle of the stadium will be half empty beginning in 2017? Will are out of conference schedule still include the likes of Liberty and directional Michigan? I understand they have to raise more money but this seems extreme I've always thought you had to give more to get more you're giving more to get the same. I think the effort should be geared towards getting an extra 10,000 people to give 100 bucks not to get the 10,000 who already give to triple their giving

As an Arsenal fan, this season has left me jaded. However, huge props have to be given to Leicester for pulling through when I (and many others) didn't believe they could maintain their pace.

I do, however, think this was an unusually weak year in the EPL. I'm super glad that Leicester was the one to capitalize, rather than the Manchesters or Chelsea. Disappointed my guys couldn't do the same.

But for any Arsenal fans out there, Iwobi is a boss and we should be excited about him, if nothing else!

agreed but as a city fan we love to make things difficult...

We also have word of the first "Super Camp" to be formed.

TCU will be hosting a camp with Bama, USC, and Ohio State.

Michigan and UGA have also announced a joint camp.

Hopefully Fuente is calling up the old boss and seeing about us working with the good old Horned Frogs too.
