This is an excellent post. thanks

and your niece is a badass

Thanks for the correction about Alabama. Need to up my googling skills. VT definitely plays the bear better than anyone we've encountered. And that's not even your normal base defense. Sheesh. Hopefully a year of watching your film will help us. Miller is only a help as an option, not going deep or across the middle. Maybe as the H-back.

That's not the only Man Bear Pig we have had a couple come through Blacksburg..........

Kroger is headquartered here in Cincinnati and the proper term is Kroghetto not ghetto Kroger. Get the "classist" terms right!

Why is everyone jumping down AZHokie's throat about this? We've discussed so many things way off topic than this. Hell I just started a post on Mr Robot that is about anarchism and hacking corporate and government systems. He made no association to the football program (unless he edited text) and despite what others commented it is directly related to the school we are playing on Sept 7, as well as being something important socially.

For me, I look at this from a psychological point of view. I personally doubt that everyone in the band was comfortable with this but with a charismatic leader and peer pressure of those following that leader and their bandmates before them. It's a common issue in college life that leads many to do things that they would otherwise never consider. I realize this is THE college band but to me with all this going down I really expected OSU admin to do more to penalize it already, even without this coming to light. I hope some positive example is going to be made of all this.

Thanks for the post. Now back to some football!

pretty sure what he means is the parent of a student, like my parents were ostensibly Hokies back in NV because they supported me and I plastered VT decals on their cars.

The search function is non-functional to the point where I struggle to find topics when I know exactly what I'm searching for. I also think it's fair to bring up the topic as long as it doesn't implicate the entire university or fan base, which doesn't seem to be the case here. Frankly I found some of the quotes from the story shocking.

added to the list!

In the Navy, the ordinance kids on our carrier would wear shirts that said "IYAOYAS", as in "if you ain't ordinance, you ain't s***". It made little sense and seemed fairly inocuous, but one night our LPO went on a hilarious rant about how topsiders shouldn't have an ego as far as the ship worked.

They had an old passageway of ours and we still had a key to the display case. So, we made a poster and hung it outside their office "IYAROEYJAFTR - If you aren't Reactor or Engineering, You're just along for the ride".

Acronyms are fun

I thought the team outlawed tackling Sam Rogers in practice

Shabutie did a great job- were any other TKP'ers on site? I'd love to hear more impressions, especially since the VT Football snapchat only had a couple of snaps showcased from Saturday.

Nothing is confirmed but I'm pretty sure the talks were that it would be on the drillfield.
