I'm glad to see UNC brought their refs along with them today.
Currently in the standby line. It wraps all the way around Cassel. Ends in front of Lane. Send help.
I usually pull up the espn3 games without the subscription when the game isn't on TV....but now that it's on ESPNews, I'm wondering if I have to go to a sports streaming site.
EDIT: Yes, I can still pull it up on espn3

This makes me warm and fuzzy all over.
I hate how Arsenal s***s the bed anytime Chelsea is involved. It's getting old.
I held season tickets for basketball all 4 years and that was easily one of the top 3 games I attended (beating Duke on Dowdell's three and blowing out #1 UNC being the other two).
Cassell Guard! This is your call to arms!
Anyone have Comcast or Other account that I could use to watch the game? Our Comcast account doesn't work properly. Thanks!
flakes in St Augustine yesterday as well; also Gainesville
Just heard from a student that the standby line goes all the way to McComas Hall.
Youre going to be a bandwagon fan no matter what, really. Swansea, at 3,833 miles from Murrells Inlet, edges out Liverpool by 13 miles to be the closest to you, but you're a world away from any team. Try to find a local bar with a good PL viewership and go for a few game days, see how local fans of different teams are. I've been a Liverpool fan since they won the greatest damn game ever played in the 2005 Champion's League. At the time, soccer outside of the World Cup was hard to watch in the US, it was a visible tournament, they weren't ManU, and I drew several parallels between them & my first love in Blacksburg (knowledgeable & passionate fan base, though in hindsight that applies to most English clubs, that team had tons of heart, and now great personal tragedies that while tragic showed the heart of the communities). Liverpool also has the largest real fan support here in Charlotte (United would probably lead if you polled the population, but the percentage of their "fans" that don't follow anything is staggering) so there are always Liverpool fans to watch with, but the small percentage of every fan base that are complete asshats is also more evident because of the greater population and being around some of that group might have deterred my fandom in its infancy. If you can find a good watering hole with some fan diversity you'll enjoy it a lot more.
COME ON CITY!
Well, looks like you can watch live on TV after all.
I'm off to Cassell! Hopefully I return hoarse and victorious.
TV Update: Along with ESPN3, today's #Hokies game will be broadcast live on ESPN News at 3 pm. Will also be rebroadcast at 6:30 pm on @ESPNU— VT Men's Basketball (@VT_MBBall) January 24, 2016
Just announced students can get in FREE tonight with a student ID.
Agreed on all points. Moss is a pretty darn good football analyst as well, and entertaining.
IIRC Bradshaw was originally at UVA and had legal troubles and Moss originally was going to go to ND got in trouble, went to FSU got in more trouble and then ended up at Marshall. I think Marshall does a good job at evaluating trouble talent and since its not a major university in a major conference it can take more chances. Moss definitely turned it around and has been an upstanding guy doing lots of things in his community in WV.
Don't forget Ahmad Bradshaw. Could be seen as a lesson in successfully recruiting your area. Moss of course went to FSU first, but he was a West Virginia native. Leftwich from DC, Pennington from Knoxville TN, and Bradshaw from Bluefield, Virginia. Marshall's recruiters obviously put in some work at home.
I love Klopp & think he'll pull us Reds back, and I love Shankly & Paisley, but the dominance that Fergie sustained for so long in an era where it should have been impossible is nothing short of astounding. I was so glad to see him walk away.
I hate Diego Costa.
I had forgotten about this. We can be so intimidating.
yeah real madrid is definitely tottenhams "parent company". even though we could match bids for bale i dont think we should. i trust the youth pochettino has developed thru the academy. let them develop. we spurs have i think the youngest starting XI by age in the prem. league.
but if they do put the eventual NFL team at the new stadium and we get that revenue, i'm all for signing him. he'll be back in the prem. league soon i think.
Germany, Spain and England already have 4 spots each, Italy is the threat to take the 4th spot from England, but it's still a couple years out if it happens at all. England has time to tighten their grip on the 4th spot.
Still crazy how Moss ended up at Marshall of all places. Seems like for a 5-year span, Marshall was producing a Heisman caliber player every year. Moss, Pennington, and Leftwich.
So Enter Sandman is going to look like it did here (when there was a similar situation with the storm + students)...?
Me as well. He just seem to disappear.
I think the first day of camp, the starting offensive line looks like:
Nijman-Teller-Gallo-Conte-McLaughlin. Big Jon I believe with be on the right side.
If they had to play a game that day, Osterloh and Moore would be the first options at tackle. Kyle Chung and Osterloh would be the first two options at guard.
My sleeper guys are DeAndre Plantin and Tyrell Smith. Both were sleeper recruits that were blessed with terrific feet. Of all the skills on the offensive line, you can't teach light quick feet. Everything else can be improved with hard work. With the feet, you can improve, but there is a limited threshold. I really like how Smith was competitive in spring practice. Sometimes he was physically outmatched as a true freshman, but in those spring reps he was fighting tooth and nail. Plantin I heard had a terrific fall on scout team. Both kids need a good lower body off season weight training program and learn to play with good bend. Both I think can be 2-3 season contributors.
If you put me on the spot for the depth chart opening day of spring camp, I would guess (and this is purely a guess based on my eyes and ears. I have no "inside information."
Nijman-Teller-Gallo-Conte-McLaughlin
Plantin- Pfaff/Smith -Chung-Osterloh-Moore
Pettit-WALK ON-Smith-Mitchell-Clark
The Walk On OL kids were Daniel Bailey, the Kish twins, and there is one other kid I think that finished the season.
