# | Buzzketball Central: Virginia Tech Hokies(14-13, 6-8) at Boston College Eagles(7-20, 0-14) 9PM ESPNU So the NIT is a bit more difficult to project since the selection process is a lot more vague and it's a lot easier to observe tendencies of the NCAA bubble (better than mid 70s RPI, 9-10 ACC wins tends to get you in, # of quality wins/bad losses, etc.) than the NIT bubble.
It would be interesting to see if there are any historical trends for the NIT though...I think the big thing in our case is their requirement that you have to be better than .500. My gut reaction (with no historical or statistical proof) is that pure win-loss record would be the main factor, so if we get a couple games above .500 we should have a good shot. Once I'm home from work, I might try to pull up some additional info about the NIT and see if I can make any better guesses.
I see what you did there.

# | Buzzketball Central: Virginia Tech Hokies(14-13, 6-8) at Boston College Eagles(7-20, 0-14) 9PM ESPNU OT, but curious. Do people in Boston get annoyed that some people from the south still tend to think of everyone from New England as Yankees?
The guy with tape on his face is Jamie McNeilly, right? Assistant Coach?
The FSU game, I think. Could have been the game before that, but I remember the commentators talking about it.
Not sure... I think it's the offseason?
Hey, what are you guys counting for?
definitely still some significant stuff in central virginia as well. It aint over
I believe this would be 26.
Ok I could be on board with this

# | Anyone have any idea what this VT Basketball tweet could mean? Must not create 30 new posts to make you fear the post....must not do it......
So far I've seen 4 tornados in VA. Two killed in Waverly which is near Wakefield NWS office but no warning given. Stay safe people.
None of the above. Its the guy right down in front that put tape on his face to make him look like Seth Allen that you essentially miss because he isnt out on the floor. And who is that with the snow shovel in the back (Donlon?)? Where did they even get that?
Here in the Outer Banks I've heard we're looking at wind gusts in the 70-100mph range, strong thunderstorms, tornado possible, but not too likely.

I can say that the Tshirt thing is not new. Frank did this for years. Not sure if this is "common" and is done at most schools for these types of early spring workouts, or if this was something Bud brought up to CJF and he thought it was a nice idea to keep the tradition going...Either way, it isn't new to the VT Football program.
not gonna debate any of that...all good points and you should demand (and they should have) good answers
Who wouldn't? But how many guys put on 25lbs - with a bad wheel - and don't lose speed? That number is probably close to zero.
Agreed. The talent we have on offense and depth at QB (Lawson and Jackson) were directly attributed to him. He put guys in a position to succeed. Leoffler did a lot of ground work for the program.
One thing he's really good at is knowing where the basket is. No matter where he is in the paint and what direction his eyes, chest, & shoulders are facing, he seems to have a good idea of where the ball needs to go and how it needs to go there. He's the best finisher on the team (although I will say a number of players have improved dramatically since the beginning of ACC play at finishing around the basket).
It's something you can't really teach and relatively few college players have a knack for it.
Tape and less beard threw me off but you are correct.
