With the conclusion of spring practice, we have reached the dead period.
There are no football and basketball games to cover, discuss or analyze.
Recruiting will pick up later this summer, but Tech’s two major sports won’t

things to talk about.

This is the time of year where I wish my baseball team was good (my poor
Braves would probably lose to the Orioles right now). There’s not much to do
except wait and guess. It’s the same thing every year at this time. We’re
guessing how many games the Hokies are going to win this year, and we’re
guessing which recruits will commit to Tech this summer and how many
scholarships the coaching staff will use on this class.
