Excellent point.
@Nick - I'd be surprised if you can rattle this guy. He's a baller. But as stated above, I don't think you're going to see him running a lot of traditional WR routes.
Did not read anything and came right here. Frank tomorrow when you get out of bed put on some street clothes! Or at least some PJs that fit.
Fortunately, the hamstring being sore is due to him having to run the distances a WR does, rather than what a QB typically runs in practice. Meyer said today he looks good to go.
If you are worried about beer prices at the bar, I have one word of advice for ya:
"pregame"
Time tested economics.

# | Bud Foster: Virginia Tech defense is " more aggressive and twitchier" than Wisconsin, Bama, Oregon Bud's not saying VT has a better defense than those other teams. He saying that we do some things better (and some things worse, I'm sure he'd admit, at least privately) and we play differently, meaning you shouldn't directly compare how Alabama played against OSU to how VT will.
It's not one dimensional, better or worse. It's about how players and teams match up with each other. You don't have to be "better" than Team A, to perform better than them against Team B. You just have to match up better and do certain things differently.

# | Bud Foster: Virginia Tech defense is " more aggressive and twitchier" than Wisconsin, Bama, Oregon Last year Bud threw Urban a curve with the bear. Why wouldn't Urban throw Bud a curve and play a little more pro style and use his wealth of stockpiled athletic talent to grind us down?
Our defense will be tough but I will be surprised if we actually dominate anything in this game. Our offense has to carry more of the load.
Is it me or is Frank flat pimpin' in that suit, dawg?
He dope.
And people think he's out of touch.
My Grandpa always said "Beer is beer".
Shoot, even #teamcake is #pizza. It's kinda like bacon, in a league of it's own.
Honestly not sure. I will likely get back to my apartment ASAP and watch on the laptop or out at Buffalo Billiards (DuPont circle) since I may miss the first quarter or close to it bc of work.
Right in the honey nut feelios
Ever been to Redline across from Gallery Place?
They have pretty good food and a solid selection of beers. At least one huge projection screen and tons of TV's around the bar & seating areas. Tabletop taps at some of their booths as well. Prices are typical for the area (so kinda pricey)
A cheaper option would be Hamilton's Bar & Grill near Judiciary Square. (not The Hamilton) I haven't been there but it was recommended to me a while back.
Last time tech played bama they had a huge o-line, i think everyone of those guys are in the nfl now, tech owned bamas offense that night, they did very little. Techs special teams blew up that night, that killed tech. My point is size doesnt allways bode well for teams vs tech and with techs d-line depth i dont see it happening this yr, last yr tech was young and depth was more of an issue.
I guess Urban is #teampie so he's got that going for him
Yes Ford was red shirted.
Okay, thanks to both you guys above. I was really feeling like odd man out there for a second because nobody was talking about fast twitch muscle in explaining it, and those are always the first words out of my mouth when someone asks what twitch means. I was worried I had been misunderstanding Wiles this whole time.
Can you imagine Settle and Sobchak on the interior? Roughly 630lbs of beef with explosive first steps.
Posted this before- if it's true that Loeffler's offense is as complicated as people claim it to be, shouldn't that end any talk of Lawson starting this year since he's a true freshman who didn't even enroll in the spring? Unless he's been blowing people away in practice this year that feels like a good way to waste what should be a terrific defense.
Tyrod is my favorite Hokie of all time and it isn't even close.
I can't even imagine anyone ever supplanting him, you couldn't ask for a better representative of our program.

# | DT Tim Settle Hoping to "Burn and Learn" As He Cuts Weight and Absorbs the Hokies' Scheme Love his attitude! A year of learning from Maddy and Marshall could lead to great things. Those two already play with an attitude of a guy his size.
Ohio st averages 6'4 305 on the line, thats good size but I'm pretty sure bc, pitt, Miami are just as big if not bigger. Speed kills
good things happen to good people and i'm glad Tyrod finally got his due (now i can tell people the Bills' QB was in my 8 a.m. Finance class in Squires!)

How about a 2 TE set? Try to grind you down.
