What's this?

It is also pretty tiring that posters don't acknowledge that the playing

field is not level. VT simply does not start as high on the 4 * player as FSU, Miami, Clemson and yes, UNC. They are national brands that severely tilt the playing field against, not just VT but every school that is not a national brand.

You would be right if we were a similar national brand, if we had a history of even BB players as those are talked about on the playgrounds as much of more as football players, then maybe. But until we become a national brand, there is a reason and that is is.

Now if Amazon "bought" our program like Nike did Oregon, then maybe.

Well $hit, VT should just forfeit and not risk getting any players hurt. So -- Blueboy 04/12/2021 7:47PM

Ok. A big part of the problem is that less and less people would even care. -- hokie4life2 04/13/2021 09:04AM

Should just get used to that, UNC being bad for so long is mind-blowing -- soflahokie 04/12/2021 4:44PM
