My only question is what is the need to put the score and opponent on the ring? I my personal opinion i think it's a little tacky.

Still not the same. Maybe we don't grow enough GMO corn here in VA.
I'd suggest a slight change. Cobbler w ice cream > cake > pie.
You have piqued my interest now. What makes you think he will be good at LT? Mind sharing (if you haven't already)?
Sorry - fat thumb on small phone. It was meant to be an up vote.
If we get 5 offensive lineman at the same time to come in, and they get 4 years working with each other under Grimes' tutelage ........Holy shit.
Turkey leg for using the word beat. Which reminds me, I have to post this video. It's basically some guy shit-talking wannabe porn stars so don't watch if you think that's mean.
Grimey just chatted up Brady Taylor. The other 4 commits are working on him and want the fab five.
Brady say he had a great conversation. Looks like we may have 5 OLers coming in.
What no camping out the night before? Weak sauce...
I'm seriously loving this hire.
To all my 2014 OL commits...I'm fired up for our future together in Blacksburg. Let's get one more & make it THE FAB FIVE!!!— jeff grimes (@coachgrimey) July 11, 2013
Absolutely correct. Clearly someone in the marketing department isn't to sharp with the whole marketing thing.
Freshman Non-Lottery for Tickets > Cheese
I would have listed Ronyell, but my neck hurt too much from watching Javon Walker running by him to type his name correctly.
Bryan Randall is and always will be one of my favorites. Mainly because i played against him in high school and despite the fact he singlehandedly beat us but wasn't a douche about it, but also because of his leadership abd handling of the Marcus debacle.
QB- Mike Vick RB- K Jones (maybe Ryan Williams) FB- J Fergasun TE- J King WR- A Davis WR- A Freeman OT- D Brown OT- E Chung C- J Grove G- T Washington G J Pyne
DE- C. Moore DE- D Tapp DT- D Pugh DT- J lewis
Mike-Ben Taylor(or V Hall take your pick) Backer- X. Adibi Whip- J. Anderson
BC- B Flowers FC- E Green FS- V Fuller Rover- Kam Chancellor
My thoughts exactly...
It's hard to be intimidating for a noon kickoff vs. Western Carolina or Marshall.
Hopefully everything goes right and we get a Saturday night game vs. UNC. Gotta show those recruits a night game in Blacksburg, somehow.
The whole entrance part is now just a cut scene with highlights/general southern rock music. Some stadium sounds are still addable, but you can't put any music over when the team runs out of the tunnel now
Watson is in the NFL now, so impermissible benefits aren't an issue. The rest of the team is getting their rings all at once sometime soon. There could be some typos in those too, so they'll have to figure out what they're allowed to do. Making any money off of it would probably present a problem - OSU anyone?
Thanks for the dates. I'm anticipating my anticipation of these trailers already.
Let's look at the bright side. I've heard (even though I haven't been to Blacksburg since 2006) that the students in the current student section aren't like we used to be. Whether it be the abundance of paper airplanes, the inability to comprehend and recite our cheers at the right time, or the inability to recognize a key play, the word is they're not pulling their weight.
Maybe getting a slew of fresh new faces in those stands is exactly what we need. If they bought the tickets (assuming they'll be in the student section), hopefully that means they WANT to be there. Hopefully freshman orientation got a few thousand of them well educated in when and how to cheer. Hopefully this will bring us back to being one of the most intimidating road games an opponent can play.
Or maybe I'm hoping too much. I guess we'll see.
Also, make every one of them make a profile on TKP and take a 100 question quiz on important dates, people and plays in Virginia Tech history. Bonus points are awarded for successfully explaining why Stiney's 3rd and long screen plays sucked.
Could allowing him to keep the ring be viewed as an impermissible benefit especially if he sells it later? I read somewhere that he will receive a replacement for the mis-engraved ring, but since its something that the other players didn't receive and since its presumably of greater value than the replacement ring, it seems to me like allowing him to keep the ring AND receive a replacement, especially at no cost would at least be a gray area.
