What I've been waiting for. Thanks, Andy! That Malleck catch (it had to be a catch) revives BITTER (no pun intended) memories of a certain bowl game we won.

injured fullback Sam Rogers going as far as throwing a red cup on the field to try to challenge the call.
Quarterback Chris Durkin separated his non-throwing shoulder in a practice earlier this week and is out for the rest of spring.
Tight end Kalvin Cline didn't scrimmage, but he had a good reason, according to Bryan Stinespring. Cline had an exercise with the Corps of Cadets on Saturday where his group gets dropped off in the middle of nowhere and basically has to find its way back, marching 16 miles or so to do it.
Three biggest things that stood out to me. Andy thanks for all the top quality information.

For some context the entire Freshmen class of the Corps recreates in 2 parts the 26 mile hike that William Addison Caldwell made from his homestead to become the first student at Tech. The second part concludes on Upper Quad and represents the end of their training as Fr cadets.
It is shockingly refereed to as the Caldwell March, with this being Caldwell II.

Yea they usualy do Caldwell a weekend before Army does their FTX which is usually Spring Game weekend.
Last year I had an interesting Saturday did the 3.2, then to Lane to watch the scrimmage, then back to Upper Quad to change because the HT's play for when the class gets back to campus, then to Squires in Dress A still for a Fraternity Ritual.

So basically the same exercise our offense has been doing since 2002.

I was wondering if it was the Caldwell March or just an ftx. Thought it was about time for the Caldwell March.

Ritual? That sounds interesting...
I couldnt tell you either way I was just there to watch and took a nap in the back for part of it.
Wow. I mean, that's all inspirational and all... but that is not at all how the end of training went for me. A nice peaceful hike would have been fun.
It has changed even in the 6 years now since I was a Rat.
They have basically killed all the old remaining parts of Turn Day and the last few weeks of the year all in the name of maintaining Professionalism.
Oh Jesus they made him mad....
Sam Rogers challenged a ruling on the field and was overruled?
Gutsy call, Ref. Gutsy call
So basically the same exercise our offense has been doing since 2002.
Ouch, that really hurts to think about. TT made the pain go away a couple of years though.
Somebody has to have the red cup throw/ call challenge on camera or video somewhere.
I would love if somebody got a good screen grab for a print. That sort of character photo is exactly what I want for the football viewing room.
You, sir, are
oh snap! (is it bad that I think of AutoCAD when I say that?)
you went there...
