Excuse me but,......THE HOKIES JUST BEAT uva TEN YEARS IN A ROW IN FOOTBALL!
Who freakin' cares what some douche thinks is a better 'college town.'
That's what losers claim: 'sure your TEAM won, but our uniforms are prettier and our concessions are more nutritious, and blah, blah, blah....'
WTF?
I thought the point of the game was to WIN? That's what we did....WE WON! and won and won and won and won and won and won and won and won.......AND THEN WON AGAIN!.
Really, and you want to talk this 'best college town crap!?
What about this metric?.....I bet any party in Blacksburg last Saturday was more awesome than one in Charlottesville, because we won! Unless, it was a party in C-ville with a lot of Hokies in attendance.
How's that for a college town definition?
Take your 'we have a better restaurant selection and housing' and shove it, and I'll take my stumbling down from TOT's, stranger yelling Go Hokies, rail drinking, cold wind blowing ass to Blacksburg any day!
(Rant over, but this discussion is nonsensical.)

So...how many actual Tech grads here didn't live in Blacksburg/Montgomery County BEFORE coming to Tech, but wanted to live or retire there after?

-My only direct experience is my year at JMU (and proximity groing up in Strasburg), and a few visits to Charlottesville for the medical center and to see friends. (Oh and I witnessed DW's front-flip-for-style TD in the Boston College game in Blacksburg a few years ago, but unfortunately didn't make it down town.)

I am dissapointed by the lack of questions at the end that there's no good answer to. Like #CakeVsPie.

Defensive Player of the Year

DT Aaron Donald, Pittsburgh: A one-man wrecking ball in the middle of that Pitt line who had 26.5 tackles for a loss. I dont think anyone else on defense had quite that impact.

Ironic, considering the savage outcome of that game. (OT: And isn't it cool how I just copy and pasted the quote by itself, and it automatically put the link in...I was going to do it anyway, but wow, roanoke.com got their bases covered)

Edit: Not knocking the selection; just when I hear 'Pitt', 'defense', 'tackle' and 'impact', I think of poor Tom and chuckle a little. And I prefer to not use the comma before the 'and', but understand it is acceptable.

To be fair, Aaron Donald was absolutely ridonkulous this year and if anyone on that joke list deserves their first-team honors it was him. As nasty as our defense played as a complete unit, if I were to give my unbiased vote for ACC DPOY it would probably be Donald.

I'm not sure what anyone expected the UVA players to say.

If you go public and blast the head coach, how much playing time can you really expect to see next year?

In regard to this latest tweet: I don't get it. How can it not be about the college in a 'college town'? Wouldn't it just be called a 'Town'? (Philosorapter?)

I specifically remember bitching about how we were going to run up the middle with JC Coleman yet again. Then that beautiful play call happened. I was left speechless and so so happy.

Eh....I don't think our recruiting sucks. It could always be better but sucks is a bit strong., I'm really excited over our guys coming in. In any case I'd rather have some more "also rans" like Darren Evans, Brandon Flowers, Orion Martin, and Jim Druckenmiller than a 5 star like Xavier Lee or Melvin Aleze any day.

There was a buzz around Mora taking that job, but he's remaining at UCLA.

Say what you will, but even something like that would've come out sooner than later, no matter how tight you try to keep it wrapped.

i had mine on under three other layers of vt gear.

I for one find using the words "dumb" or "stupid" when talking about something in a derogatory sense extremely offensive. It is clearly saying that people who are intellectually challenged or non-expert in a field of no fault of there own are vastly inferior, less than human, and are a terrible part of our society.
