count me in...now you just need 373 :)
The main issue is finding 374 other people to buy them.
sad to hear...may he rest in peace. always loved his classes.
Great idea. I'd buy the shit out of some coozies.
Dr. Farrar passed away in May, FYI.

RIP, even though he gave me a B in Sports History because he didn't like my final exam essays >:o
Every school has their joke classes. If any recent VT people took Intro to Shakespeare with Harvill, you could attest to how that class was a total joke. Probably easier than any class I took in high school. And over half that class was athletes. Even the elite schools do it. Stanford had a little scandal a few years ago where athletes got a list of joke classes to take. I even met some dude on vacation years ago who was going to play football at UPenn and, not only was he a total meat head, but all he could talk about was how we was going to cheat his way through every class.
That being said, it is so sweet that a school wanting to keep us out of the ACC for being academically inferior got caught up in a massive cheating scandal. A cheating scandal that completely blows our joke classes out of the water. They probably won't ever get in trouble because the NCAA are pussies, but it's fun to see their reputation take a few hits.
Having gone to VMI, i have a special place in my heart for those Twaffles from W&L. They are the biggest bunch if pompous douche bags I've ever met. Always enjoyed beating the snot out if those pamperrd punks in rugby!
In the spirit of renewing the WVU rivalry, I guess his sisters were on the volleyball team.
I got that cheer when we were kicking the shit out of Washington & Lee University on the gridiron. In related news, I would rather my first born daughter become a prostitute than have any of my children go to Washington & Lee.
Being a Woodson alum (though never in any sports), I can say our Soccer would usually be up there, and some of our other sports (I think baseball did pretty well), but we usually crapped the bed in regards to football. In one game, above mentioned Evan Royster ran for something like 200 yards and 5 touchdowns in a half against us. I can say that after four years of watching it. Once every five-ten years we can actually make a good team, and get to Regionals, then go back to sucking. My second year there, we made regionals, and the QB of that team ended up at VT, but mostly on the scout team, but his senior year he got a few snaps (Jeff Beyer if anyone is wondering).
When I was there we had won like 5 state championships in swimming in a row, had the state champion men's gymnast, and a few years after I left we won the state championship in soccer with the All MET POY. So we weren't all bad, just not good in football.
The Bucky/Ford competition and the JC/Trey competition should both be interesting over the next few years. I am looking forward to watching, talking, and arguing about it.
Just an idea I'm throwing out there. How much would a coozie with that logo cost to make and sell? I'd probably buy one of those to tailgate with at the game.
Good to know, thanks. Hope we offer him.
I threw the shot put and discus for West Springfield and remember TJ being pretty good at track, so you have that going for ya!
I was visiting Tech in the summer 10 years ago and there was construction going on. I flagged down a worker and asked him if he could spare a chip of Hokie stone for an alum and he proceeded to heft an 8" square of Hokie stone over the construction barrier.....I make my family rub the stone before every game......
Settle was the guy I was thinking of. Now that RMFW is done with Exumtaur, he needs to get back to Manassas and recruit for us a little.
Do we even have enough space for all those targets?
Pretty crazy. I know them, although we didn't really hang out together.
Greg Stroman is a wide receiver/db prospect in class of 14 and Tim Settle is 5 star d tackle in '15
Bucky, because he'll (hopefully) have more experience than Ford. For running back I have Trey/JC
Eh, fair enough. I didn't know they did that to us. Granted, like 130 kids from TJHSST go to UVA every year. At my workplace, there are no Wahoos, but a good number of Hokies. Joelestra is one of them.
I was Jefferson 97-00. Played with Justin Bogner and Keith Nakai on my club soccer team.
For all those that said we weren't on the recruiting, I think this shows our technique a bit more. I like this kid, and hope he comes to VT.
You asked for it, they're following through. Although, overall, it's still 57% UVA, 36% VT, and 6% Penn State...
