LOL...

1. The "Get After Ya" defense
2. Bud Nipper defense (Barney Fife reference)
3. The Grimey Wall OL

Local references:
1. The Stonewall Hokies OL
2. The HokieStone OL

If Edmunds and Harris make a killer combo, maybe:
1. Iron & Steel...(old "Sixteen Tons" Tennessee Ernie Ford song reference..."one fist of iron, the other of steel, if the right don't getcha then then left one will)
2. The Wrecking Balls
3. The Cannon Balls
4. Hammer & Sledge

No recruits are there, pretty sure that is an NCAA violation. Cav has like a 2 minute youtube highlight of each player and he goes over why they liked the kid and what they see from them in the future.

I just watched that Miami game. I hadn't seen it since it first happened. it is crazy to watch that team. They were special. It just feels like our offense was so balanced and our defense and special teams were soooo good. I hope that we can get back to this quality one day. it was amazing. Plus it is so wild to hear so much VT love from the commentators. I hadn't heard that type of love in forever.

I think it was Weinke by a few months.

That game was so frustrating, a classic bad offense type-of-day.

Then this play happened and all the anger was flushed out of my system in a nano-second, to be replaced with joy and hope. Great game.

..how bad the reception was for the first time when I attended the Texas A&M-LaTech game earlier this year. No matter where I was near the stadium I couldn't get any coverage. (verizon user)I only had my phone out to take pictures.

Trying to talk over crowd noise would be utterly useless. With that said, it'd pretty much take a car accident to stop me from attending a game. I've been in some shitty weather (last years independence bowl between Mizzou & UNC was freezing cold and rainy)

I'd imagine that's mostly due to increased stress on the area's cell network. Not only are there a bunch of extra people in town for the day, but I'd bet that people are using their phones more trying to meet up with people or discuss the plans of the day and whatnot, especially immediately after the end of the game, or before if it is a blowout.

Also, I'd be curious to know exactly how large of an area (or how many people) a single tower is intended to cover.

good o' Virginia Beach kids can't seem to stay out of trouble.

I vote they rush the 'Bama sidelines with a saddle. Tackle the sorry excuse for a mascot Alabama Elephant, throw a saddle on him and ride him out of Lane Stadium towing the Skipper by his tail. Leoffler rides the Elephant and Grimes get's the cannon. Grime's is shouting "Now feel the power between my legs" as he's setting off the cannon.

A common problem is not enough cell towers near stadiums. Because stadiums are only full for a couple hours a week, phone services don't put in extra towers to accommodate the mass influx. 3G and 4G will never work to their full potential during game times. WIFI would work better, but you would still have 50-100 thousand people trying to look at TKP, twitter, facebook, etc at intermissions, which is a lot of bandwidth.

I didn't know that Charlottesville had sunk so low as to have their cops picking up side jobs as hookers and gigolos. But then again, it's UVa territory so I wouldn't put anything past them.

The recruit night for the Roanoke Valley Chapter is at Hidden Valley Country club for all you Southwest Virginia Hokies. The tickets sell out really quickly and it's hard to get one due to the fact that it's not advertised and you have to basically know someone.

They call it recruit night because as joe said Cav goes through the highlight reels of each signee and gets the audience fully torqued for the future of Hokie football.

Welp, it looks like I will be hungover on Valentine's Day. It's a good thing I'm single...
