I kinda like the AI generated Lady Hokie Bird....
According to his VT Bio "Robie and his wife, Jennifer, reside in Christiansburg with their three children – Nate, Luke and Jake." Normally kids are listed from oldest to youngest so Jake would be the baby of the family.
I thought Jake was graduating this year. He just won the Class 3 VA state title at 190 lbs two weekends ago and thought they said he was a senior. Is there a 3rd son?
Updated with highlights
Robie has another son at Christiansburg highschool. I assume he will wrestle for Tech. I doubt that Robie wants to deal with the circus in Iowa when he has built VT into a program that is on the verge of surpassing Iowa. For what it's worth, Whit Babcock is very aware of the Iowa situation and is highly motivated to keep Robie, Frayer, and the rest of the staff in Blacksburg. Wrestling is one of the most successful programs at Tech and will be a nice feather in his cap if he can get the football program humming with Franklin.
LOLUVA FAM!
Nice meeting you and it was my pleasure!
Hokies!
I think we have a good shot against gt or fsu and i like our chances against unc rematch... After that....
Miami won the lone regular season matchup with Stanford 66-51 in Coral Gables.
Cal won the lone regular season matchup with Wake Forest 61-52 in Berkeley
Georgia Tech won the lone regular season matchup with Florida State 80-69 in Tallahassee
Virginia won the lone regular season matchup with Clemson 73-63 in Charlottesville
Notre Dame defeated both Miami and Stanford, by 8 and 12 respectively.
Syracuse defeated both Wake and Cal, though needing 3 OT to beat Cal in Syracuse.
Virginia Tech defeated both Florida State and Georgia Tech, both by double figures.
NC State defeated UVA by 2 in OT in Charlottesville, but lost to Clemson by 10 at Clemson
Looking at Tech's path, they should be a clear favorite to win their Second Round matchup, regardless of opponent.
I'm hoping Tech can get revenge for the OT loss against UNC, especially if by then the refs learn what a charge and a backcourt violation are.
If the Hokies make it to the Semis, Louisville is a nightmare matchup. I don't see them losing to Syracuse or whomever wins Game 2. Their lone losses are against #1, #3, #17, #20, UVA, and Notre Dame. That being said....
If the Hokies make it to the Finals on Sunday against Duke, it would be fitting, asthe two teams were each other's conference opener.
Let's Go!!
Biggest challenge may be keeping Robie. Iowa smoke is out there. Hoping he is enjoying it here so much that a big offer wont sway him. Think his kids are done with school this year though, right?
I am not even counting on that. Way too many good teams in ACC this year. Seven in top 25 and Louisville dropped out in last poll. UVA is also right near Top 25 in RV. 26th currently. Louisville 28th.
That about sums it up.
They had 6 receivers play in the nfl (not including Boldin who didn't play that year), we had 1.
Why can you always get the answer to chemistry jokes.
They all have solutions.
So... I guess there's just a LITTLE bit of softball going on this upcoming weekend in Salem.
This weekend solidified my expectations for this year. I think the best we can realistically hope for is a strong in-conference performance.
'26 and '27 is going to be something special for the Wrestling program, if we can keep the roster together.
Quality losses for Auburn.
LOLUVA can kiss my ass. Home team clock operator tried to gum up the works to fuck us but it didn't work.
FAMMMMMM!
Ahhh.... we were toyin with em so we could make them think they could come back and win only to crush their hopes with 1.7 second left!
PURE SCAHDENFREUDE!
And both our starting dbs got hurt
The Hoos made the classic mistake at least a couple times, they left Baker and Wenzel alone outside the arc. With time they rarely miss.
