About the TSL Podcast
Launched in August 2017, the TSL Podcast is the most widely listened-to and watched Virginia Tech sports podcast. It began as an audio-only podcast, then started streaming live on Facebook in March of 2019 with Episode 66. In the summer of 2019, we built the Tech Sideline Podcast set and started streaming live from the set on YouTube in August of 2019 with Episode 73 (which, bluntly speaking, looks hilariously amateurish to us now).
You can listen on your favorite streaming platform or watch every episode on the Tech Sideline YouTube channel. Be sure to Like and Subscribe while on YouTube.

I was impressed by Pry’s discussion of the incoming class. TSL provides excellent statistical info on recruits, e.g., height, weight, HS, projected position, etc. What really struck me re: Pry’s summary was the number of those recruits who were captains, co-captains, all conference, all state, etc., all good signs of future leadership.
I know you could only ask a certain amount of questions and the level of detail was limited… but for example, why was Dax caught in pass defense downfield that hurt the defense. He didn’t really get into decisions and approaches that failed. It would be nice but i know time is limited.
Coach was very self reflective and it feels like he understands the big picture. He’s a VT guy through and through.
Could barely hear audio on YouTube.
It’s fine here — I’ve got YouTube audio at 50% and system audio at 50%, and it’s plenty loud.
Yeah, it’s fine for me on my laptop and phone.
Must be iPods
Nice interview, Pry just has a way of making you feel confident success will come and he has everything covered.

Hopefully an article on the cliff notes is coming.
