Mike Young on the #Hokies identity: "The team creates it and I push it every day. It comes from Coach Foster, Coach Beamer. I think of that identity on the defensive end, the grit, the hard-nosed. I don't know if I've had an a-ha moment, it just kind of evolves."
Mike Young is quoatable as hell.

Something about CMY makes me feel like sustained ACC success is a reality with the way he operates. I'm not saying winning the conference necessarily (although this year is as good a shot as any). But being a top half ACC team with legitimate Tournament opportunity each season doesn't seem crazy.

Neither Duke nor UNC are ranked in basketball's Top 25. That hasn't happened since 1982. For the first time since December 1982, The Associated Press men's basketball poll doesn't include Duke or North Carolina
That's insane! Oh, and the Hokies are in the top 25, so...win win

Unlike earlier this season when we were ranked high from beating Villanova, I feel like we've earned this ranking now. I'm actually feeling a little bit snubbed with the way ACC network keeps talking up some combination of UVa, Lville, and FSU without really mentioning us as much.

Mike Young is showing us what it looks like to have a coach with a plan, and a coach that can execute that plan. He has a culture that he has established and the players have bought in. Can Mike Young also coach football?

Still can't get on the regular ESPN channels, meanwhile SEC women's hoops has had prime time games three days in the last week. ACC Network is killing our National availability.

Notably he uses Beamer and Foster for said term references. But whatever, this Head Coach is f-ing awesome!
As would I. Especially since 2018.
Was 16th our highest ranking under Buzz as well?

No, we were ranked 9th at one point in the 2018-2019 season
Thanks. I couldn't remember exactly. Either way there is something about this that feels better.

Dat dare is whatcha call a "Paradigm shift".
Of course Coach K will probably cancel the rest of the season now they know they can't win it all.
Or have some kind of "injury" that requires him to miss games
Add Kentucky, and all three haven't been unranked at the same time since December 18, 1961!!!!!

I don't know Ed, it might hurt his game.

Meanwhile ESPNU is showing a replay of Florida State vs UNC whole Florida State is live against Louisville SMDHFlorida State vs Louisville is live on ESPN as well so I guess FSU can get two base channels at once but the rest get the ACCN fiddle
FSU boat racing Louisville with six threes in 12 minutes, 27-11 right now.
