All things considered, this was a damn good season given what our expectations were. I'm proud of our guys for always battling tough
or teh foosballs. Spring ball starts next week
On to beisbol?
Isaiah's career is at a fast Tempo.
somehow this is all Hokie Fireman's fault
I thought the offensive team chemistry was pretty good down the stretch, but we definitely have quite a bit to work on when it comes to defensive chemistry/rotations.
Not sure anything has totally been rebuilt yet. The promise is there to become a competitive program and if he stays, it will be rebuilt and get there. But if he leaves, we have to hope the next coach can carry it forward, otherwise it could be a bit of a slump before rebuilding begins anew.
Any way I can Escape out of here?
Lady Hokies still have another game, so Tech is still playing basketball until at least Sunday.
A lot of heart and character on this team, hoping Buzz hangs around but feel future is bright. Whit will keep the program on the right track!
That's always the round of death, not surprised that it went the way it did. Tech has really turned it around in the consolations though. If they can keep it up during the morning session tomorrow I think we may actually make a top 5 finish. That would be a big step for the program.
Yeah didnt need another reminder. Knew it when it went final, just shook my head, drained my glass and turned off the television. So ridiculous that a game like that comes down to one possession. Your head will be spinning with all the what ifs where each case extends or ends the game in our favor. No technical on their coach, no bad two possessions by Blackshear, any endless number of fouls called or called and one, the foul called that gave them three free throws where the whistle happened after the ball had been rebounded, the no call when their big man managed to go one dribble from the three point line, Wilson foul called correctly as a charge, technical fouls called on the several occasions they struck Hokie players above the neck, or cut Blackshear above the eye when they kicked him in the head, somewhere in there I imagine there might be three points
So your saying we need to get one of these for next year?
That has a scary resemblance to PJ.
yeah. Buzz clearly needs to make them practice shooting with a section full of led flashlight waving students behind the basket.
Couldn't be prouder of this team, but man those last couple minutes hurt. Really tough to see KJ and Robinson struggle tonight, but we saw about both ends of the spectrum with those guys. The thing I'm most upset by is the fact that we won't see any more basketball for a while, and that's OK.
Good try Hokies. That was a tough tough game.
Oh, and... Fuck Brigham Young. Hope the Hokies see those fools around again.
Must pull against Iowa and Ohio State tomorrow. We need to stay top 4 to get a trophy, which would be the highest finish ever for the Hokies.
Thank you Wiz for the great coverage and predictions. Thank you Buzz for making it happen. Thank you team for making March fun again. Thank you wild turkey for being here tonight.
It's time for football. Cue the sandman!
What is this?! Who are you?! Level-headed after a loss?!?!?! GTFO!!!!!!
..../s
Northern Iowa halfcourt shot to win it, and I was hoping for a showdown with A&M tomorrow. Oh well.
Goodbye to Texas University.
It got to the point where it seemed like you were rooting for us to lose just so you could be correct in your prediction that we weren't coming back. And then the unnecessary aggressiveness when he didn't even call you a UVA fan. The frustration is completely understandable, we're all frustrated, but keep in mind we're all on the same team here. And I think this team has earned us believing they'll pull it out after the resilience they've shown all year long. I wasn't ready to give up hope until we trailed by 5 with 4 seconds left. Until then, I'm not counting this team out
I really like our chances of holding on to that 4 spot. Would be pretty sweet if we snuck ahead of Iowa. Penn State and VT both have 6 wrestlers still alive heading into tomorrow which is the most of any team. Now, if we can only get Penn State and Okie State to drop all their matches tomorrow and we can manage to have all of our kids take the consolation brackets and finish 3rd we can come home with that team title.
I'm frustrated beyond reason. I'm grateful this team had a better season (according to a lot exceeding). I hope Buzz keeps the buzz going for at least half a decade and we make multiple appearances in the NCAA tourney. I have nothing to say about the officiating because as a Hokie fan I'm used to it. In fact I've acknowledged it as part of our programs identity. Until something very serious is done behind the scenes (Hokie iluminati) it has been and will continue to be fact-of-reality. That's all. Next year, just fucking win.

Great effort by this team unfortunately the NIT favors the home team with lower ranked team having to do last minute traveling. It definitely was better for all, incubator fans when all games were played in New York. One venue, one location, one travel for all teams. Yes, the student are there as easily, but the teams are not jet-lagged.
I'm very proud of this teams effort and total team play. Who knows what next year holds. Whit better work hard to to keep Buzz, we want him to continue this magic!
