LOL. VT is barely ahead of UCONN. Are donors that butt-hurt? -- crabcake77 03/08/2017 10:26AM

Vt outreach marketing hokie club was pretty lame -- Mercury 03/08/2017 4:33PM

Look to our backwards league and it's weak payouts and schedules. ** -- chuckd4vt 03/08/2017 2:27PM

Don't blame the league on our own weakensses -- Mercury 03/08/2017 4:36PM

FIRST place we should be looking. Gamecocks and Hawkeyes destroy us. -- chuckd4vt 03/08/2017 5:48PM

Agree on scheduling. It must improve. -- crabcake77 03/08/2017 3:08PM

Ten to twenty million dollars less in bowl/TV payouts is SMALL potatos? -- chuckd4vt 03/08/2017 5:53PM

We'd still be shorter than many of the schools in the ACC. -- crabcake77 03/08/2017 6:23PM

So that extra 10 to 25 million dollars is no big deal then? OK. -- chuckd4vt 03/08/2017 7:03PM

VT is in the ACC for the foreseeable future -- crabcake77 03/08/2017 7:33PM

Agreed, but we should demand new ACC leadership pronto. -- chuckd4vt 03/08/2017 7:44PM

Good luck with those demands, tv contracts are coming down...see ESPN -- fordham 03/09/2017 09:08AM

Demand new leadershp NOW so we don't get left behind next time. -- chuckd4vt 03/09/2017 2:27PM

You must think VT has special powers or something, and you are -- fordham 03/09/2017 3:08PM

VT SHOULD HAVE a ton of leverage when conference decisions are made. -- chuckd4vt 03/09/2017 6:26PM

What has FSU forced them to do? We are one of 15 and the NC schools are -- fordham 03/10/2017 09:45AM

Been reported here numerous times, FSU strongarmed UofL into league. -- chuckd4vt 03/10/2017 10:37AM

I imagine it was more than FSU that wanted a strong sports team -- fordham 03/10/2017 3:31PM

Doesn't matter. -- chuckd4vt 03/10/2017 10:19PM

We were sent out to Shreveport because Tech -- RJHokie 03/10/2017 10:24PM

We wanted Belk, Belk wanted us, but ACC had NCSt's back. -- chuckd4vt 03/11/2017 12:06AM

I can answer one of your questions.... -- Will Stewart

03/08/2017 10:30AM

Not news but location is a killer. I still talk to many from VT and -- Colonel Jessup 03/08/2017 5:26PM

Yep. Fball tix are driver. Home schedules SUCK. -- chuckd4vt 03/10/2017 10:23PM

Eeesh... that's not great Bob. -- crabcake77 03/08/2017 10:35AM

This is a marathon, not a sprint. -- Will Stewart

03/08/2017 10:56AM

Sure, but the "Quick Donate" minimum is $100. -- crabcake77 03/08/2017 12:48PM

They're expecting it to take a long time, yes. ** -- Will Stewart

03/08/2017 3:13PM

Make it easier to join, and more would. ** -- Lead Dog 03/08/2017 1:56PM

I'm not sure how it could get easier than this: -- crabcake77 03/08/2017 3:10PM

That looks like a 1 time donation, not a ongoing monthly one, -- Lead Dog 03/08/2017 3:48PM

OP was about new members. ** -- crabcake77 03/08/2017 5:29PM

I-64 was supposed to got due west of Richmond & not go northwest through -- Stech 03/08/2017 07:43AM

I-62 (if ever constructed) would run from VA Beach to Roanoke/west -- Old Line Hokie 03/08/2017 3:41PM

Roanoke will be getting I-73 before anything else. Any proposed -- hoosnowahokie 03/09/2017 12:06PM

58 would not serve the Va. Peninsula 500k+ or Richmond Metro 1 mil + that -- Stech 03/11/2017 08:33AM

58 goes straight into 664 in Chesapeake, and Richmond already -- hoosnowahokie 03/16/2017 12:47PM

I-73 -- mrcaniac 03/09/2017 1:35PM

Rail service re-connecting the I-81 corridor to the DMV -- crabcake77 03/08/2017 10:44AM

What do you mean in addition to the renewed service to Roanoke? -- jmanatVT 03/08/2017 4:58PM

Regular Service connecting Blacksburg/Christiansburg/Roanoke to the DMV. -- crabcake77 03/08/2017 5:26PM

So some riders on 6 or 7 saturdays in the fall would make that -- fordham 03/08/2017 4:12PM

High speed rail from the 757 to the NRV -- EDGEMAN 03/08/2017 11:49AM

Probably true ** -- crabcake77 03/08/2017 12:49PM

Re: I-64 was supposed to got due west of Richmond & not go northwest through -- SoCloseHokie 03/08/2017 09:13AM

Stadiums -- mrcaniac 03/07/2017 8:53PM

Get us better ACC schedules and tickets/prices will skyrocket. -- chuckd4vt 03/08/2017 2:29PM

The revenue difference isn't in the ticket prices -- mrcaniac 03/08/2017 8:58PM

Not true. Primary driver of "donations" is fball seating. -- chuckd4vt 03/10/2017 12:42PM

20-40K more seats -- mrcaniac 03/10/2017 10:51PM

Not comparing us to Michigan. Let's talk Iowa, USCE, Minnesota ** -- chuckd4vt 03/11/2017 09:50AM

Okay -- mrcaniac 03/12/2017 11:54PM

Also vt has other options -- Mercury 03/08/2017 07:38AM

I didn't realize Tech was expanding their campus in NOVA... -- AlumVT 03/09/2017 6:09PM

There are 2 ways -- Mercury 03/08/2017 07:25AM

Tech is having trouble filling up Lane.... -- Old Line Hokie 03/07/2017 10:20PM

Wouldn't be a problem w/ SEC-East or B1G-East schedules. ** -- chuckd4vt 03/08/2017 2:30PM

Yes it would, attendance is down across the board, its not a vt thing -- fordham 03/08/2017 4:00PM

Tell me who in the ACC sells more tix than Tenn., UGA, USCE, Florida -- chuckd4vt 03/09/2017 2:30PM

There are other options but it would require tearing down -- VTHokie2000 03/07/2017 10:59PM

Thanks for the info... -- Calamitous 03/07/2017 7:37PM

Miami suprised me. Big 12 numbers larger than I expected. ** -- Old Line Hokie 03/07/2017 10:11PM

They make decent coin off tier 3 rights available. -- chuckd4vt 03/10/2017 10:26PM

This is why vt is pushing so hard -- Mercury 03/07/2017 8:25PM

Unless you have a detailed audit report for each school -- RJHokie 03/07/2017 9:31PM

These numbers come from Title IX Compliance Reporting. -- HOO86 03/08/2017 11:41AM

You still don't see the specifics. There's a lot of bs in the -- RJHokie 03/08/2017 10:04PM

It's all transparent It's all good -- Mercury 03/08/2017 08:30AM

I believe all public colleges are required to publicly display -- VTHokie2000 03/08/2017 12:06AM

Hmmm, VT's offers as percent of applications are interesting. -- Will Stewart

03/08/2017 10:55AM

The GT and Wake numbers were surprising. -- HOO86 03/07/2017 8:02PM

U still don't get it. Small schools=less fans than big schools. -- chuckd4vt 03/10/2017 10:29PM

Clemson is not a large school, but they have a large fan base. ** -- RJHokie 03/10/2017 10:37PM

Exceptions to every rule. Pretty easy to see why Wake and GT struggle. -- chuckd4vt 03/11/2017 11:37AM

GT and Wake are relatively small schools... -- Freddyburg Hokie 03/08/2017 4:08PM

Mike bad hire -- Mercury 03/07/2017 8:27PM

Make it easier to join, and more would.
