In the same vein of the +25 football threads, every comment gets +16, no more and no less.
Need all the good juju and vibes we can get. Feel good gifs. Feel good comments. +16s for all
How far can we go?

Good morning.
In less than 12 hours, fans from here will join others from around the region. And we will be launching our largest aerial battle in the history of the Hokies.
Hokies-- that word should have new meaning for all of us today.
We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore.
We will be united in our common interests.
Perhaps it's our fate, to advance on the 29th of March, but we will once again be fighting for our freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution -- but from annihilation.
We're fighting for our right to live, to advance.

The Lady Hokies play the JMU Dukes at 7PM tonight in the Sweet 16 round of the WNIT. The game is on Madizone HD sports network and JMU Sprint broadcast network. The game does not seem to be on ESPN3 or ACC Network.
JMU is 27-5 and 16-0 at home this year. Evidently the WNIT rates JMU as a higher seed than VT because the game is at JMU. In their first 2 games the Dukes beat North Carolina A&T 48-37 and USF 71-54. Both games were at JMU.

That seems to be the end of that.

Thought I'd try a little something here and see of it works...many of us aren't in the VA/DC area and may not know of much of a Hokie community to meet up with for games.
So here goes...name your city/area if not already named, and otherwise reply to the person who named your city/area if you're looking to find a group to watch the VT-Duke game with. I'll go first.

He gone! Roll Tide!
I know this was discussed in other threads, thought it warranted it's own thread though, since a lot of us wanted him to be a potential replacement. This turns the argument I think on it's head that TA&M should wait until the offseason to sign Buzz. Whit just lost out on a big fish, partly, due to Alabama moving quickly.

Another in a line of off the court issues for the Virginia Tech basketball team.

I have always been more of a lurker than a poster on the boards, however I've been discussion strategy with a friend off and on all week. We've gone through a few strategies that Buzz may employ here but I'm wondering what better basketball minds may think.
Defensively, what do we do?

Looking for a good VT Basketball desktop wallpaper for the Sweet Sixteen. (I figure a spring training shot of Ronald Acuna just ain't gonna cut it.) Whaddaya got?

The latest report on Buzz Williams' possible departure from Pete Thamel, who is usually quite plugged in on these things.
- "As far back as last season, Buzz Williams has had an open invitation to return to Texas A&M."
- Whit's already vetting candidates.
- Williams is the only name for A&M.
- Perhaps a Final Four run changes the outcome.

Living halfway around the world provides some unique challenges for following Hokie athletics. There is an awesome YouTube channel (hokietapes) that posts every regular season football and basketball game shortly after their live airing and this is my main resource for watching Tech sports. However, it seems that YouTube really cracks down on uploading full replays of March Madness games. Unfortunately, streaming the games live isn't an option so I'm asking if anybody knows of a source for full-game replays. Is anyone willing to go live on Instagram so I can watch it on their story timeline? Any other ideas?

Once again, I appreciate Joe and ESPN's collaboration for this excellent Tracker feature

Zion is watching. Zion is judging. Zion is life.
I mean, in our ACC Tournament Game against Miami, ESPN really hit on what mattered most

And then against FSU, they came with the blistering hot takes

Its like they don't even realize how fortunate they were they didn't have to face JRob this year.
Lets get it on. BEET DUKE.

Put your GIFTORY requests here.
I put this in the FAM thread, but thought it should have its own thread. I know it's not Hokie-related, but I'd like to request the blonde in the red shirt that winked at the camera, in the opening montage coming out of halftime. (I don't know when she originally winked in the camera, but they did show her again as time ran out, she wasn't winking.)
Also, there should be no fewer than, but also no more than, sixteen gifs for the Sweet Sixteen. In fact, everything on TKP today should be in sets of sixteen.

Keil has been great, but Bede was amazing against BC. Either way, it will be fun to watch that match up when Zion is looking to take over his offense.

Who all is going to the Sweet Sixteen game? PhantomJB93 and I will be there.
Tip is reportedly at 9:40. I propose gathering at a bar (Yard House on 7th Street ) and marching down to MCI Center Verizon Center Capital One Arena.

So I can buy the full strip (sweet 16/elite 8) or just the sweet 16 day. I know the full strip is more bang for your buck, but is it possible to sell the elite 8 part of the ticket should I be left with that choice or once I buy the full strip i cant sell any part of it to another person? sorry I know it's probably a stupid question, but I want to be absolutely sure of the situation I'm getting myself into if I buy the full weekend strip
