Listened, wish the sound was better. He mentioned BIG AND SEC and UNC having money ready to jump to BIG. Wish there had been more clarity on Hokie Club, Hokie Triumph, Hokie Way (which is a major TSL sponsor) and how they all will work going forward.

Yeah, that would be good. I feel like we don't need a new thread for a third-string QB that's never seen the field. If a starter or high-end recruit leaves, yeah that's much more newsworthy, but having a catch-all for noting benchwarmers makes a ton of sense to me.

I don't disagree. I think the important piece of this is the antitrust exception challenge as that's something that has been looming over the NCAA for a long time. If it's successful here, basically could see the end of eligibility rules at all.

So true. I'm surprised at how many don't know of this great character. I have gotten that look from people as well. On the flip side, I have one bud in particular where we can spend a good portion of our conversation speaking in Schaeffer and just cracking each other up.

I always enjoy every opportunity to say the words to anyone "Consider It Done" and I say it the same way Will does with a serious face, but am smiling inside.

EDIT: Here is the video that will make anyone appreciate the legend that is Ashley Schaeffer

DCWilson, is that you??

I doubt it. DC's pretty positive about Franklin, and this doesn't start off that way.

Edit: I straight up asked DC about it last night. It's not him.

The whole monologue that this scene is from is comedic gold. When my friends or coworkers mention watching something I catch myself saying "let the boy watch" in Ashley's voice and they mostly just start at me like I'm an idiot.

I thought all of CFB just worked with Jimmy Sexton now to cut down on office space

I'm beginning to suspect that this isn't Bud Foster's agent ....

There will be five new appointments made (out of 14 total members) this summer. You can track whose term expires when here: https://bov.vt.edu/Members

The BOV is generally very deferential to priorities set by previous boards. New members generally take up to 1-2 years to get up to speed on everything, so I wouldn't expect any major swings.

I thought that was quite interesting as well.

I would definitely call what Utah did "creative", but I'm not sure I would use the word. "amazing"

Members are appointed by the governor as you pointed out. Each term is four years, however, the terms, and on a rotating basis, so you'll never replace more than a small handful of board members each year.

How much will the BOV change again with the change of Virginia's Governor? I dont know what that turnover process looks like and it worries me after we finally built up this positive momentum that the BOV changes could short circuit that. Just asking for process feedback.
