any GIFs of Logan ducking to avoid that sack?
It's his eyes! Don't look at his eyes! He'll steal your spirit!
A good buddy of mine from Tech married a Mich State alum last summer. She's a pediatrician. They both were very upset with that Sugar Bowl, but very happy with the Spartans opening last season with a win over noise state.
It's dolomitic limestone I'm pretty sure, so you might be able to contact some commercial supplier and buy some that looks close enough. It won't be real hokie stone but it should be close.
About that, I hope we'll settle down with a few good formations for conference play. Just need to know what works based on the scenario.
I remember how angry he looked on the sidelines when we went to play them in '08. That whole series was great for VT Football and it was a little bit of revenge for what his LSU defense did to us the year before!
Totally agree
Jut keep them off the field by executing drives.
All I can say is a very mobile QB was sacked SEVEN (7) times.
3D print an imitation of it?
Agreed on that. I think merit-less arguments and weak statements are annoying but fortunately/unfortunately "this is Amurrica and dammit we can be completely illogical and say whatever we want" and are proud of it.
Hating just to hate is unproductive; I 100% agree there.
I can certainly agree, I just can't stand the hate that comes across sometimes. When people post nothing except, "he's trash," "he lost us the game," "he's the reason for (whatever)," or nothing beyond profanity, it upsets me. We can all certainly have an opinion and I don't mean to diminish that, but please at least have a reason for it. If you don't like your CEO or President, then there's probably a policy reason behind that. I don't like people who hate on those in charge for no reason, either.
+1 for the rational assessment that Glennon was forced into duty when he wasn't ready. He did what he could and that's all I could ever ask from him.
At least you're honest.
I have a pile of it sitting in my parents back yard. We used to walk through campus to get to TV from downtown instead of taking the bus a lot. We acquired a lot of broken pieces of Hokie Stone laying around from all the construction. We had lots of ideas of things to do with it in our apartment, but we'd get drunk too early on the weekends we could do anything with it to use power tools.
if you can do better, do it. Walk on and show them you can play. If you're out of eligibility, get a job as a coach and fix their problems.
I always find this to be a weak argument. Everything in life is critiqued and "eye-tested". Can I be a better CEO of my company or better POTUS? Maybe or maybe not, but why does that directly impact my ability to have an OPINION on something.
"Glennon will not go down in history as a great VT QB, but he's been a good representative of this program on and off the field and I respect the fact that he did his best, and the above quote shows great maturity."
Speaking for me personally, I've never said that I didn't respect him or think that he is a bad ambassador for the school. It's quite the opposite really. Glennon was the wrong QB for Tech at the time and had a lot of things going against him. Perhaps people "blame Glennon" as a way to incorporate that entire era of Tech football.
Either way people are allowed to have opinions even if we don't agree with them. Glennon is clearly a polarizing figure when it comes to this fan base. Que cera, cera.
I acquired my piece honestly... and by that I mean totally stolen out of a pile being used to build the knee wall in front of Durham Hall.
Well Vick had access soooo that much?
I have a dream of building a bar out of hokie stone. One day maybe...
Damn. Thanks for the info. I wonder how much $$ I need to donate to get access...
Yeah, that is a pretty ridiculous comment. Besides having a great game plan for Bama our players physically beat them at every position. Hopkins and Maddy both beat double teams on several occasions, our second-best DE Collins beat their top 10 draft pick left tackle and Gayle was nearly impossible to block every time they went with play action passes.
How about when Jack Tyler blitzed on 3rd and short and beat the fullbacks block and still made a tackle for loss? Very, very few LBs in the country can make that play. The same goes for our secondary against their WRs.
I would be willing to bet that LSU does not hold Alabama under 300 yards this year. In fact, I doubt it will be under 350 - 400 yards.
I could understand this article being written in years past when we were not as talented as LSU and other top defenses but I don't think their is a defense in the country this year that has the talent we do, across the board.
Bud, "You're lucky to be alive son. Congratulations. Don't ever look at me again."
Carden: Thanks for letting me live, Coach.
Bud: Thank Gayle. He showed mercy.
sarcasm? or doesn't get that we refer to the team as the cowgirls?
