Virginia Tech add field level suites: The "Sandman Suite" and "Lane Lounge"
The Sandman Suite:
The new Sandman Suite within Lane Stadium will provide a one-of-a-kind viewing experience not only for the game but for the best entrance in sports. Located at field level, the suite will offer a unique perspective of the game and provide complimentary food and beverage. Seating 16 fans in the northeast corner of Worsham Field, the suite will be sold in its entirety on a per game basis, and pricing will vary based on the game and demand ranging from $15,000 to $35,000. Game tickets are included in each suite purchase.

2024 DMV Watch Party
How many people in the DMV would be interested in attending a watch party at a bar somewhere in Arlington, VA?
I also have a lot of TKP pint glasses in my garage I want to unload.
Edit: Not to watch Vandy, but just at some point this season.

NIL, the Haves VS the Have Nots
Currently there are 39 states that allow high school student to participate (and profit) in the NIL landscape without forfeiting their high school eligibility. Among the states that don't allow (public) high school students to participate are Alabama, Indiana, Ohio, Texas, and North Carolina. I'm sure they all have their eyes on this case that was filed in NC recently...

2024 VT Football - Takes thread
Now that we're under a week to play, i wanted to have some fun with hot, and not so hot, takes about the upcoming football season. We've gotten all the input from the fall camp. We've seen the possible shifts in lineups. Now, it's time to wildly speculate. A little justification never hurts with a take. But, sometime
As a scale, I've chosen the BW3's wing sauce (I would have used PKs, but they don't order theirs by heat level). We'll be skipping the rubs. A dry rub doesn't really equal preseason excitement.
Don't just give us one take. Make one for each level.
And now, to kick things off:

Hokies in CFL 2024
Looks like Hokies have three guys playing in CFL this season.
Woody Baron Toronto Argonauts
Tyjuan Garbutt Winnipeg Blue Bombers
Jordan Williams Toronto Argonauts
Was watching a game today and swear they have made their end zones bigger. Looked like they were 25 yards deep.

You know, maybe UNC might be the most unserious 'brand' in football
Alright seriously what the fuck is this pic.twitter.com/0kpXeverDbβ Satisfied UNC fan (@heelscentral) August 25, 2024
That's gotta be the worse addition or upgrade to a stadium I've ever seen. You can't take any program seriously that tries stuff like this.

Vandy/Nashville Roll Call
Which of you TKPers will be heading to Nashville next weekend for the Vanderbilt game? I've been to Nashvegas before, so I am familiar with navigating that scene. However, I have never been to or near Vanderbilt's campus, so I have no idea what to expect in terms of parking, tailgating, and general gameday experience. Any recommendations/things to watch out for?

Football Captains announced (all 7 of them)
Your ππππ Hokie Captains π¦π«‘#ThisIsHome pic.twitter.com/pD1MIjIgcVβ Virginia Tech Football (@HokiesFB) August 21, 2024
Interesting that Brumfield made captain in his short time here - not a whole bunch of surprises otherwise. Seven seems like a whole lot of captains

Also, David Cunningham reporting that the Chaplin-Ghannam-B. Moore-K. Moore-Clements line combo continues to get the number one group work on OL.

Note- Thomas Williams is working in the second defensive back group at corner. Note, in our TKPC film review of the secondary, I noted that Williams looked the most polished of the prospective second group of corners.

It feels like football weather this morning
Mark your calendars, August 21 is the day a chill is in the morning air. Football season is around the corner (Hopefully this lovely air isn't localized to the DMV.) . I'm looking forward to publishing some football content next week and enjoying what stands to be an exciting season.

College Football Hall of Fame Wikipedia Page
I went down a rabbit hole on Wikipedia earlier today when I was bored out of my mind at work (eleven days to kickoff, amirite?).
The College Football Hall of Fame Wikipedia page lists a table of "Players by School" and I looked on there and saw VT wasn't listed. I thought this couldn't be right because I remember specifically hearing about Corey Moore and Frank Loria being included. So I went on the list and did a CTRL+F search and found Moore and Loria and a total of 5 players from VT have been inducted. I'm also a little irked that loluva is on the table showing their 5 players yet we aren't on the table.
I know nothing about editing Wikipedia but I guess my questions are:
