Because we're all Sunday morning quarterbacks.
Corey just hauled in a 21 yard game winning TD to beat Money Manziel and the Browns.
On a side note Logan is 8-9 for 84 yards right now.
Good night for Hokies in the NFL right now, hope Logan finishes strong.
CJ Reavis interviewing Brandon Facyson turned into a dance contest.

VT DB Detrick Bonner said DT Luther Maddy was slowest guy on a fast D. Maddy's response: "If I'm the slowest, then we're pretty darn fast."— Jimmy Robertson (@jrobIHS) August 9, 2014
Really looking forward to watching this defense fly around y'all.
Alex Koma is covering today's media day in Blacksburg. The first surprising story of the day is that Travon McMillian has been moved to running back.
Frank mentions the #Hokies have moved QB recruit Travon McMillian to RB already— Alex Koma (@AlexKomaVT) August 9, 2014
Judge ruled that the NCAA cannot legally restrict compensation to athletes. The door for college sports to become professional just got opened.
And for those saying this won't get abused and it's only for small payments to get by, she issued a permanent injunction against any overly restrictive restraints. Essentially, the door has been opened for athletes to negotiate contracts in college.
The age of amateurism is officially dead.
Phil has us going to the Music City Bowl to play Mississippi State. Last year it had the #7 pick of ACC teams. Do you feel that it is too low/high? Of note, there are 9 other ACC teams he is projecting into bowl games.
Every year Paul Myerberg ranks every team in the FBS. Gives each a big write-up too. We clock in at 32, which seems pretty fair considering the last 2 years.

Some serious love for Foster and the secondary, some concern about the offense.
Teel went to the source and talked to Chad Morris about his relationship with Michael Brewer and how he ended up in Blacksburg.

As part of the Autonomy discussion for the P5, there has been the talk of potentially making a fourth Division, I would assume the P5 would remain Division I in this case. ESPN polled the current P5 head coaches to see what their thoughts were on playing a schedule exclusively of P5 teams and it received a surprising level of support from a majority of the 65 coaches asked. 46% said they would be in favor of it, 18 % were undecided and 35 % were against it.

Tyrod taylor is having a great game against the san Francisco 49ers . joe flacco is a durable qb, nut tyrod seems to have the ability to win some games for the ravens if he is called upon.
Or a computer, thanks JoeRT @thekeyplay If you still own a radio, I'll be on ESPN Blacksburg today at 5:15 I think I plugged that spot right— Brian Marcolini (@marcolini11) August 7, 2014
The J.D. Howell show is always a great listen during football season (for obvious reasons), and his co-host Brian is a frequent contributor on TKP.

I thought that ESPN was just going to be interviewing David Wilson today on NFL Live. Instead, he is sitting in on the desk right next to Herm Edwards, etc. They are asking David what he expects out of various preseason games tonight. Clearly, they are giving him a chance to try out his chops as an analyst/commentator. I think that he has a future!
Coach Beamer participated in the Ice Bucket Challenge to bring awareness to, and help fight, ALS: http://www.hokiesports.com/videos/#!/videos/all/kxazRobzp3ItToPLbdx9-8CJ....
Frank is the best.
Obviously this is somewhat subjective, but the display is cool.
The Division I Board of Directors today restructured how schools and conferences will govern themselves, paving the way for student-athletes to have a voice and a vote at every level of decision-making.
Was listening to the radio on the way back from lunch and heard him say coach would be on. Figured I'd pass it along for anyone wanting to listen.
I'm not a fan of ESPN but this was an interesting article mostly due to the fact that Beamer supposedly voted for it. Definitely surprised me. Check it out.
