# | Lane Stadium Atmosphere For OSU Game Had Recruits "Ready to Suit Up," Despite Losing Effort 
Get rid of the hokie pokie?
How is this even a question? Of course not!
The problem with our running game hasn't been DLs. Our OL has usually done a decent job blocking the DL IIRC but we struggle with linebackers. If they have good linebackers, I don't know if it really matters how our OL does blocking. If JCC can't break a tackle from a LB we're only going to get 2 or 3 yards per carry from him.
It's what it's all about

Really happy for the guy that he is getting his shot.
I hope he runs away with it and is a starter for a long time.
I'm surprised by that too.

# | Lane Stadium Atmosphere For OSU Game Had Recruits "Ready to Suit Up," Despite Losing Effort Glad to hear the fans and the great showing in the 2nd quarter wowed these recruits, makes me wonder if any would have committed on the spot had we pulled the upset.
I do the Hokie Pokey, and turn myself around. Wash me in your judgement.
do you throw paper airplanes at the games too?? That's lame. The hokie pokey should stay and will stay. Why would we stop doing it?? Because it's too childish for 18-22 year olds??
one does not question the hokie pokie...
Nice fronting Mr. Rogers, like anything can intimidate you...
25 is an odd choice for a score.....guess we're getting a safety somewhere in there.
Also I don't really get a sense of their defense too much. I've heard about their LB's being pretty decent and their secondary has the most experience on the team, however I'm looking at our run game v their DL. Their DL is fairly young in terms of experience. I think our OL should get a good amount of push up front and establish a good running game which in turn will open up the passing game. Motely may have a pick in this game but thinks he still gets into more of a rythym as the running game gets going with Shai and McMillian. I also look to see Motely or Lawson to have a decent rushing game due to scrambles. Not neccessarily due to our OL getting beat but more to not being 100% comfortable with what the defense is giving them and then scrambling. However, to see them be able to stay in the pocket and light it up through the air would be awesome.
Obviously our LB play is our big question on defense right now. And if last week was any indicator of how we are going to defend the zone read or option we may have trouble here. Hopefully last week was just plain vanilla defense executing. However I would like to see more stops in the back field on runs. I don't think they will be able to run straight ahead on us but may gain some yardage on the outside. Of course I think this all depends on our LB play.
Sex in a canoe, huh?
Wow surprised no "quarter" back jokes after he mentioned his childhood story. Great guy hope he does well!
It's been played in both games so far this year. And it will continue to be at every game this year and probably many many years to come.
My daughters love it. I do it wrong so they laugh.
It adds to the family atmosphere.
I can see how it wouldn't be fun for everyone but think of it as a kinky way to do Stick it in, Stick it in, stick it in. It'll be more fun that way.

He got his quarterback.
I like it
One of those things that if people get into it, it's fun. At the anOSU game, it was so crowded that I couldn't really dance along and no one around me was doing it so yeah it felt kind of lame.
Also, it's harder to do with seat backs cause you can't hop up on your seat to get some room in front.
Hokiesports has records going back to 20-21:

# | Lane Stadium Atmosphere For OSU Game Had Recruits "Ready to Suit Up," Despite Losing Effort one of the first things I was thinking about after the OSU game was how the recruits would react to everything. good to see the recruits appreciate the atmosphere and Lane Stadium at its best despite the outcome. it showed that we can compete with the best, and these recruits got pretty excited about that.
Awesome work, Alex!

Ummm yes I can confirm they did it for anOSU game, even had anOSU band members do it.
Thx so much for the recap, it's great to hear what recruits have to say after their visits. I appreciate the journalism!
