We're really not that deep after this year. Nigel and Woody are both seniors, assuming we roll 5 deep this year, that leaves only three defensive tackles with any game experience next year, and none as highly regarded as Crosby (Settle's probably tied).

Thanks! And I'll help you get there with a leg.
This is the 3rd year I've made a citrus hopped honey Saison for the spring game. I normally have slight tweaks every year (change up the yeast and fermentation temperatures). It's been a pretty big hit, so I keep making it. I use Cascade, Simcoe, Amarillo, and Galaxy hops late in the boil and as a dry hop. I keep it to 25ish IBUs so the beer is balanced between a honey malt flavor, citrusy hops, and some peppery and tropical fruit yeast flavors.
This year I used a French Saison yeast that really attenuated well. Normally I shoot for 6% ABV, but the yeast made it 7% because it was such a monster. I also fermented in a bucket that had a little sour bacteria from a previous batch (thought I killed it with thorough cleaning and sanitation, but oh well). So it has a little bit of acidity/sourness from that. I kegged it with the remaning Galaxy and Amarillo hops last week, so I'll probably give it a try soon.
The Belgian Blond kind of sucks - almost zero yeast flavor. So I kegged half of it and I'm souring the other half. I'm trying to culture some dregs from a Wicked Weed bottle to add on top of the Lacto bacteria and Brett Brux wild yeast.

Well right, even the IRS mentions on their call-waiting that they would never call you and demand money. So they must get enough calls from shocked American's to have started combating this within their call queuing system.

I am just asking whether anybody else has noticed specific data that they only provided to VT. Enough of my friends have reported similar experiences, it makes me really think one of the school systems was hacked. I have not seen any confirmation from VT.

Just realized I can't upvote yet, but just so you know, I wanted to up vote you for the homebrew. And also bacon.

Do you make the same beers for every spring game?

Had this happen with them spoofing the Loudoun County Sheriffs office saying they had a warrant for my arrest based on an IRS complaint. They then tried to pawn me off on an "IRS Agent" in New York that could settle my debt. I told them they could come arrest me, then called the Sheriff's office myself, who asked that I go online and report it to the FCC as a communications fraud as well to the IRS themselves. The IRS also asks that you inform the Treasury.

I would buy into it more if these camps were being held in remote locations where the players have an exposure problem. Instead, they were being held in talent rich areas where the players already have multiple options. Hold them in Idaho if we're so concerned about the diamonds not being discovered. This was always about colleges that have enough money to expand their footprint. I'm normally in favor of free market, but when colleges start conspiring together against other colleges, I draw the line. If schools want to poach the fertile recruiting grounds, they should have to do it the old fashioned way.

With all that said, I'm all in favor of 3rd party camps that have equal opportunity for everybody, and those are still allowed.

I'm pretty sure that they should think about what they are doing with their lives. There's no way they could do what I do with the hours of time on TKP and the boozing during football season. /s

Or better yet, just think that there will be Olympians this Summer who were born in this millennium. Then wonder what you're doing with your life.

You should just go and start knocking on doors and demanding your place since he mentioned you and never corrected it. At least he mentioned you this time and not someone with nude image of a woman as the header photo (that has happened).

My guess is since I had been tweeting with them earlier in the day, I sent them the story and picture of Wilford from Jacksonville Sheriff's Office, it was inadvertent. BUT I'm playing it for all its worth. Using it to convince my wife it's a sign we need to go and take the kids to the game. Tweeted at VT (Pete) and Coach Fuente that I'd love to be there on the sideline with him and I'd even bring him a Fire Dept shirt. So we shall see.

Ah, gotcha. I assumed it was the indoor practice facility at the River Course. Thanks for clarifying.
