the ACC decided you don't need to see the ball to overturn a call

not exactly indisputable video evidence, but ACC Charlotte had other priorities

Whit if you're going to post on here, I recommend you don't use the name

"fordham" it'll make people think that the Fordham Rams will be your next AD assignment. I kid I kid

and that's the way soccer fans seem to like it

I get why they like it that way though ** Edited by MaroonMark at 7/3/2026, 2:28:48 AM

that would get really annoying, even with offsides

in basketball, there'd be enough scoring that the announcer would be yelling GOOOOALLL every minute. No thank you.

I can't see how many of the fans of each respective sport would like what

is outlined for their respective sport. ** Edited by MaroonMark at 7/3/2026, 1:53:56 AM

adding to your comment, and if the money was there.

Not enough money, we don't land CJF, NIL really increased the importance of money. I realize we may not have "always thought" as NIL is relatively new, but funding has always mattered, it just matters significantly more with NIL.

I don't think PB is in the "QB room" in 2026

2027 yes, and we'll see and hope Grunk and Bryce B are still there. I think Grunk will be, BB not as certain. And Troy Huhn is in the room, not Elite 11 but not too far off from it. I believe he was an Elite 11 finalist but didn't make the 11. A seriously upgraded room indeed ** Edited by MaroonMark at 6/2/2026, 2:28:42 AM ** Edited by MaroonMark at 6/2/2026, 2:32:03 AM ** Edited by MaroonMark at 6/2/2026, 2:45:51 AM

I believe Sarah was his daughter's name

I'd guess he's understanding when there is a misunderstanding though.

you will be able to find parking downtown when you get there

there are office tower parking lots and surface lots that can house tens of thousands of people, they do it every day. The Spectrum Center only has about 20K capacity. So you can just show up and find a lot, no problem. I've done it for the sad Charlotte Hornets who play at the Spectrum Center. Its just a matter of pricing and how far you want to walk. I'd consider just ubering in from Davidson and with three occupants (the driver, you and your daughter) if they have an NC Quickpass (which many uber drivers do), using the HOV/toll lanes on I77 are free and you get there pretty quickly (30 minutes). If you didn't have 3 riders in the car, you can use the toll lanes for a dynamic pricing cost, but with 3 occupants, if the driver has the quickpass the toll lanes are free with 3 riders in the car. Oh, the merch thing, it's a big deal for the young ladies these days, or so my youngest daughter has fooled me into believing. :) When we were young, we were so much less merch consumers than the youngins are today. We didn't even use the term "merch" ** Edited by MaroonMark at 5/11/2026, 1:42:49 AM

well Tusla pulled a VT on that last inbounds, does that count?

how a TO wasn't called there was absolutely VTish, so we were sort of there in spirit For those of you not watching, Tulsa was up by 3 with 8 seconds left and got a five second call on the inbounds and had two TOs left. And of course AU hits a 3 to send it to OT ** Edited by MaroonMark at 4/5/2026, 10:17:46 PM ** Edited by MaroonMark at 4/5/2026, 10:20:50 PM ** Edited by MaroonMark at 4/5/2026, 10:21:32 PM

O.O see below

wish the best for him whatever he does, but yeah not seeing it for the NFL but hope he's able to show something we haven't seen ** Edited by MaroonMark at 3/31/2026, 1:56:21 AM ** Edited by MaroonMark at 3/31/2026, 1:57:29 AM ** Edited by MaroonMark at 3/31/2026, 1:58:00 AM

another option, get the football money machine going

and then more fully fund basketball as soon as possible. Not sure I see how VT basketball can generate the money it takes without some help first. Been defunded so long. ** Edited by MaroonMark at 2/28/2026, 11:07:28 PM
