I hate to give credit to the hoos, but yes, they have had a wonderful season. Congrats to them, and I hope they lose quickly in all tournaments

Cut WAY back on the police presence. It's like a prison. As an 8 year season ticket holder I gave that feedback directly to the athletic dept.

I feel like any embarassment that might be incurred by dumping their mascot as he is crowd surfed is sufficiently covered by the fact it was happening while they were celebrating an ACC title. I have to give them props for that, they've had an excellent season.

It really is an outlier as far as defenses, as much as Paul Johnson's wishbone is on offense.

This has always been the cause of concern for me. We can safely assume that more dubious recruiters say GT players don't translate to NFL because of scheme, and so I also believe they say the same about our defense. Save for DBU graduates of course. That being said I am 100% in awe of Bud's genius and will follow him into hell.

This game makes me even more divided on if I want JJ back next year. I want him to have his third year, but a game where we were supposed to have a chance and got blown out (again).

I just think the poor guy finally got a few good night's sleep.
Dude looked like a No-Doz ad for most of the season.

I personally think that the ACC Tournament should be limited to the top 12 teams at the most. Pains me to think we should even be allowed a chance at the ACC Tourney Title.

Maryland 64 - Virginia Tech 47

Wow, we shot about 22% in the second half and managed a measly 18 points. It was the epitome of my other write up from today. Plenty of blame to go around, Eddie was 4-13, Wilson was 1-10 and Thompson 2-7. Just pitiful.

We started the game with a 3 min and 29 second drought before we got our first bucket.
We then had a 5 min and 34 second drought starting at the 8:19 mark in the first half.

Second half, we started with a 5 min and 12 second drought before JVZ got a layup.
Then some DejaVu, starting at the 8:19 remaining in the second half, a 5 min and 59 second drought. Four droughts totaling 20 mins and 14 seconds. OVER HALF THE GAME
Maryland was so far ahead in this one that everyone on their roster got into the game.

17 turnovers and we failed to get any of their players ever remotely into foul trouble.

As for Maryland, not hard to score 36 in a half when you hit six treys and have five dunks. 28 of your points right there. We did hold the Terps to 40% shooting and seven points below their average.

We have our last game of the season at Georgia Tech, which had looked to probably be a close game, but they just knocked off Syracuse tonight, so who knows what might happen. The game is at two pm on Saturday. The wall at the end of the tunnel is so close.

This definitely was not happening circa 1995. I wish it had been though.

My orientation was a few junior/senior year students rounding up the freshman on the hall to the first home game. Showing us how to hide the booze, organizing the paint for "Go Hokies" on chests, yelling at us to stand for the entire phucking game, jumping like crazy, shaking keys, etc.

I like the idea of the orientation but really if you want better fans then make better fans in your time there. My friends and I would invite freshman every year to go with us for the first home game and do the same thing. I like to think it as your social responsibility to pay back to VT for the best 4+ years of your life.

Hot. Turkey. Wings.

I don't think Lefty lacks coach speak. That's pretty much all he did last season. I think his pattern will be like this: Off-season give open answers without giving too much away. During season: coach speak.

Dude...it was a joke.
