That's the first thing I noticed this year. Those big ass fans. My friend proposed that we turn them all the way up on the side where the opposing team is shooting.
Not a lap pool, still just a hydrotherapy pool. Fountains recirculate but are not the source of water which comes from a flood channel on the inside of the pool wall in the foreground. They can be turned off and on as needed.
There hasn't been camping out for tickets in years. When I was a freshman in 07, they had already instituted the lottery where you enter online for tickets, and if you win you just have to swing by Cassell sometime during the week to pick it up.
Yeah, I knew that was its intention. Also knew that many players don't think of it that way, haha.
One of the challenges VT faces is a resource strain. The fanbase/alumni base is just about at the max point for it's ability to donate to the program. Short of former players, the big money donors are car dealers, contractors, etc. There isn't the influx of cash to have interior waterfalls etc.
At the same time, there has to be a better salesman on the staff somewhere. UVA doesn't have waterfalls either, yet we are looking at them rolling out two top 10 overall Rivals recruits as the two starting defensive tackles in 2016. And, to the best of my knowledge, the Godfather doesn't hang out in Manassas.
I went from the 1998 game vs Pitt to the 2011 game vs Arkansas State without seeing a game in Lane Stadium. I am not sure why but I prefer going to road games, especially when they say ACC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME on the field.
Lane they are still digging up holes. Cassell, the catwalk gets cut and they start putting up the metal framework come Monday.
Is the wind direction during the coin toss fixed on 14?
Any update on the scoreboards for either Lane or Cassell?
RE: the fountain/pool...it looks like a lap pool for endurance training or a whirlpool used for PT...the fountain is probably just part of the recirculation system...granted a flashy, beautiful recirculation system.
Ahh gotcha that stinks!
I visited Brandon Hill's instagram and he has another video showing the locker room. In addition, he said he will be posting another video about it soon.
Brady Taylor is still out there....go get him Grimey!
uh... that's not a waterfall. that's hydrotherapy pool designed for you to hunch forward and let the water massage your neck and shoulder muscles.

Low Brau, as a fellow designer you should know this bro. Agree on the no go grotto comment though. And on the room full of xbox, which is also in a room with a craft services table and adjoining the balcony with top-of-line grillmaster. I would definitely take that over an arcade if there was a choice, but I'm willing to bet there are some xbox and ps3's around that arcade room too.
The Hogmollies would be an excellent name for a rock band (nod to Dave Barry).
The one by JeffDLowe is the one I'm using on PS3. Had to make a few tweaks to VT but he already removed Holmes at least.
Yes, out of all FBS teams WVU has the 14th most wins with 708, and we have the 16th most with 697, and we are the top two schools in that category without a national championship.
You haven't been to Blacksburg since 2006?!?!? *gasp* You are WAYYY overdue for a visit sir!
I can see it now. AJ McCarron, Nick Saban, and Katherine Web probably all enjoy a dip together.
good for him
Side note on Dennis Dixon. My dad sees the Steelers team doctor at a lot of meetings and was talking to him about DD the year he played against Baltimore. Apparently the guy was so dumb that they couldn't teach him the playbook and had to limit it to about 5 or 6 passing plays. As a Steelers fan I find it hilarious that we almost beat them with a guy who didn't know 90% of the playbook.
Tony Gregory is living my dream and never leaving blacksburg. I always notice players on other teams never leaving. i swear weatherford was FSU's QB for roughly 6 years
No worries dude. you from Arch program? what year did you graduate?
