Every time the Pats play they always talk about what a steal Brady was since he was drafted so late...
Would be different if Brady were coached up and went in the first round
William and Mary was 80th something in FCS total offense this year, just sayin' ...
I don't think coaching Tom Brady in 1996 is the same as coaching Tom Brady today
Do we know anything about the meeting with Pep? Did I miss a news story aside from Teel's tweet that he won't be coming to Blacksburg?
We don't know if Beamer even offered him....was there actually an official interview?
I need to back off this....my nerves are getting shot. Work is stressful enough alone. This is the first time I've ever been through anything like this...its worse than talking about a bad loss the next day. We have no idea whats going on. Its time to just back off this thing and let Frank do what hes going to do....all the chatter in the world won't change a thing.
Better, oh so much better.
I'm going to get excited about someone who was on staff with the Lions when they went 0-16...
/sarcasm
I still direct much of my anger from that game toward the officials. Tremendous tackling on BC's last TD pass, by their O-line that is...
I would imagine all of that went out the window as soon as it was announced that we are playing them in Blacksburg this fall, unless we make a home+home series with them since they're leaving for the B1G

That is all.
You mean he-who-shall-not-be-named? I do in fact still refer to him as that.
I remember that game, and man, it was brutally cold. Also, if I remember correctly, Tyrod had 4 turnovers before halftime and it was the ugliest game I'd ever seen at that point. My dad was with me and I didn't want to put him through any more misery... only game I left early while I was in school.
Wasn't Watkins a sophomore this year?
what is so bad about this home slate? As someone else posted, UNC is probably the best team in the division next year not named Virginia Tech, and should be good long-term. I would think people will want to see us avenge the Pitt loss next year, and that should become a good rivalry in the years ahead as Pitt will do well in the ACC. I would think people will want to see VT trounce MD on their way out of the conference. Even Duke was decent this year, and we can hope that carries over to 2013. Gotta play them sometime, and it ought not be in the same year we play UVA at home, since those are perpetually the 2 weakest teams in the division.
Assuming you are blaming the ACC. Now, if you meant the schedule as a whole, including what Weaver scheduled OOC, then I could start to see where you're coming from.
The sorority that won this year all had Duke blue colored shirts on. They could have at least looked to see who we were playing and decided on a different color.
they're figuring VT won't have as much draw in 2013 after the down 2012 season and a brand new offensive coaching staff coming in, and they can wait a year or two to put FSU back on the schedule? They've only released one year, so we have no idea what 2014 of thereafter will look like. The ACC also needs to look long-term picture, not just 2013, balancing their big draw games across the years.
Would probably be a better game.
The Terps agreed to move their 2014 home game against Virginia Tech to M&T Bank Stadium.

Well, Stanford is a beautiful place with great schools and great weather. Would I rather live in Blacksburg, of course. It should be also noted Blacksburg is a great place to raise a family too. Anyways, if the Jags hire Greg Roman away from the 49ers, Pep is a candidate to replace him. Would you want to be an offensive coordinator of a slipping college team, or part of one the NFL's best staffs? That's an easy answer.
I watch a lot of Kansas games actually since I was born there and that wasn't a completely atrocious offense like you'd think. Like macraw said, the Todd Reesing years were more of an anomaly at Kansas than anything. The talent on offense there was awful but from what I saw Jordan Webb actually looked like a decent quarterback under Long, and he isn't actually very good. It's hard to compare what happened to Kansas to what would happen here because the talent there is absolutely terrible.
People leaving the Duke game at halftime really pissed me off because we were losing. I remember feeling embarrassed at the pitiful number of people around me in the north
Now I'm really going to have a hard time convincing my dad to keep his season tickets. Awesome.
He's already said that if BS doesn't get canned, he's not renewing them... Now with this glorious home schedule, I think he (and many others) will seriously consider dropping their tickets until they see some positive improvement all around.
I think if people do drop those tickets, it will be more on principle and to make a point, but still... losing any season ticket holders would be really bad for Tech.
"And what can we offer that Stanford can't?"
Really good Mexican food!
Not to dis El Rods though, I do miss that place.
