Bucky Rogers
Has anyone else noticed the commentators call him Bucky Rogers about 15 times this season, or maybe I am mishearing him every time.

Need to verify VT side of UNC Stadium
Looking to buy tickets to VT vs UNC game for my birthday. However on the tickets sites the "visitors" side, VT, is not listed. Anyone know if sections 101-112 are the Tech side?

Does anybody know anything about Fredrick Johnson?
I was on ESPN and they mentioned we offered him a scholarship (2015 recruit) at OT, he'll be with Settle and Tolliver for the Western Michigan game...broke his ankle during his junior year so 247 doesn't have him rated. 6'8" 300 lbs.

Are the Hokies asking Michael Brewer to do too much in his first year as a starter?
There is no denying the fact that Michael Brewer has made costly mistakes. But after watching all his games under center for the Hokies, Brewer has made more good decisions than bad ones.For the most part, he is a smart QB. When he has time to throw he is very accurate. Brewer is also resilient and has kept his composure when things are not going his way. Watching the games, it is also evident that the coaching staff is asking Michael brewer to do an awful lot. It is his first season learning scot loefflers system. By asking him to throw the ball so many times , are the Hokies putting brewer in a position to succeed ? ESPN seems to think not:

Weekly Weather Report, rebound edition
Let me apologize for the lateness of this weather report, its been a really busy week and fair warning next week might be more of the same. REGARDLESS lets get cracking!
It's that time of the week again ladies and gentlemen! Last week Well, let's just say it came and went and it's time for our next edition of the weekly weather report. I apologize ahead of time for both the lack of content and for the lateness of this, but modern physics and astrophysics is kicking my bum right now. And in regards to last week we lost but damnit this team is still really exciting, and I see so much promise with these guys. It's only a matter of time and things will start clicking soon. I can feel it in my bones.

In Appreciation of East Carolina
I've been thinking about ECU since we lost to them a couple of weeks ago. Before that game, I know a lot of us we upset that we're playing ECU more times (6) than Florida State, Clemson, Notre Dame and Louisville combined (4) in the next six years.

Whit Babcock Hates Noon Kickoffs Too
#Hokies AD Whit Babcock says he's communicated with ACC office about three straight midday kickoffs. Not great for business or for fans.— Mike Barber (@RTD_MikeBarber) September 24, 2014
This is a man that just knows what the hell he's doing. If he limits nooners then he could play Sandstorm on loop during the entire game and I would not care one bit.
Sadly we must deal with this issue for most of this year before we see a change.

Hatin' On - P.J. Fleck
Okay...I have no idea what went wrong last week. The formula was perfect. We hated on Urban...and won. We didn't hate on Ruffin...and lost. We hated (very well, I might add) on Coach Puss Face...and lost. This week, I think we should do a good...but not great...job of hatin'.
This week, I introduce you to P.J. Fleck. P.J. is short for Phillip John. He has a son C.J., short for Carter Joseph. AND one of his players (as TheFifthFuller pointed out) is named "J.".
So, I give you the first one:
"PJ Fleck" uses initials for names.
(yeah, I know that one sucks).
