Glad you were able to provide those stats.
I would have guessed based on the “eye test” Bedford’s been better in conference than he was out of conference (because of that multi game slump he went on).
Vice versa to Neo. Where I’m sure his out conference advanced analytics looked better than ACC play (since he’s been in a slump too).

No way
I'd start Schutt over Bedford. Bedford brings more defensively and has averaged 14 ppg over the last 5 to Schutt's 4.

Just to add onto this
If he isn't hitting from 3 he doesn't bring much else to the table, especially defensivley. Every time he was on the floor Saturday FSU would send his man to set a screen for the ball handler and that forced a switch that then led to Schutt guarding one on one. And they would just spread the floor and let their guy iso him. We all saw how that went.
I guess at least on the other end if he is on the floor (and he can somewhat hold his own on his matchup defensively) the other team has to, at the very least, pay attention to him because even though he's not as consistent as you'd like, he is capable.

Someone clarify the difference for me
With Mensah's situation vs William's (Washington's QB). I see some people saying Duke has no chance at winning this but isn't this similar to what caused Williams to withdraw his name from the portal? Or are there some differences at play here?

So continue to ask the fans for more?
Sorry nope. Fans pay for the scholarships, NIL, etc. time for someone else to chip in as well.

Just wanted to say thanks Chip!
My uncle, Kenny Hawley, brought his granddaughter, Lylah, to her first softball game yesterday. I sent him a screen shot of your profile pic from TSL and told him you are the softball guy and if he saw you to introduce himself. My uncle text me last night and said he ran into you and you went and got Lylah a poster and a hand waiver. So thank you Chip for helping make her first softball game an enjoyable one!

While I agree
Concession prices suck. I won't complain, AS MUCH, with Tech's after going to the Spectrum Center. The Spectrum Center's were crazy on another level. Popcorn & a bottle of soda for $20, a milkshake at the Chick-fil-a was $10, Personal Pizza & a bottle of soda was over $20 too. We ate at B-Dubs before we came in for the women's game Thursday night but Friday they got me for being there for all 3 games.

Lot 8 info
I received parking passes in lot 8 for basketball this year (and previous) but normally I'd park in Lot 2 or 5 instead but I noticed this year, for basketball games, they are wanting people to use the Park Mobile app for parking and figured I'd finally use these passes instead of paying to park at every game. Any info on this lot? Seems slightly farther away than Lot 2. You'd think they'd give season ticket holders parking passes for Lots 2 or 3 before 8.

I won auctions for 2
Women’s games. Anyone know how the tickets and parking pass get sent? I assume the tickets are digital. Just wondering cause one of the games I won was the first women’s game on 11/6 and I need that parking pass fast lol 😂

Thanks!
I assumed that's how it would work. I have physical tickets for football as well so this was the first I'd seen of the "ALL-IN-1" thing.

VT Season Basketball Tickets
I received my email notification that my season tickets were ready to download. Now there is a "ALL-IN-1 Pass" for your digital wallet that will "automatically update to the next event". So my question is how does this work if you have to sell your tickets to 1 particular game? I'm assuming it would automatically remove the game you sold but still "auto update" when the next game comes along. But you know what they say about assuming, lol!

Couldn't figure out how
To DM on here, lol. I'm not sure what she normally charges. I had already bought my own shoes, did not need them shipped and she charged me $90 (but keep in mind that is a "family discount"). Now if you don't already have shoes I'm not sure what she charges for getting them for you, then customizing them, and shipping them (if need be). Best thing to do would message her on Instagram and see.

OT: Customized VT Shoes
I posted this on 247 as well. But our family of 4 made the trip to Huntington this past weekend with no success (my daughter was undefeated in her Hokie football appearances prior to the Marshall game) so I wanted to add something else to try and swing a W back our way. My wife has a life long friend that customizes shoes and she made these for me. If anyone would like to look into getting a pair like/similar to mine her Instagram is @brileecustoms. Will & co. if this kind of thing isn't allowed here feel free to remove the post.

That's actually
a fair and true point that I hadn't thought of. You are probably exactly right on that.

I got seats in Sec. 110
behind the basket in Row C for $91 per ticket (after taxes and fees). But I don't think VT has a say in what the ticket prices were, I could be wrong though.

I can see
why you are frustrated. You'd think they would have some type of filter to show Accessible seating.

That's so sad
Thanks for sharing and prayers definitely lifted up. I've lost a child as well, not anywhere close to the circumstances as the DelRicco family, but it's not something that any parent should have to go through.

Follow up here

I’m not sure
If you go to the homepage of the link I provided in the previous post. This banner is the second one that comes up but when you click the shop now link it doesn’t take you to the shirt like the previous banner does for the other effect shirts.
So I assume there will be one but I’m just not sure when.

Initially it was funny but it did get
Old after a while. I think the thing that got me the most was he kept yelling at the refs to call 3 secs in the paint when Dayton was on defense (I'm like dude this is college not the NBA). They may wanna have some medics on standby for the Syracuse game because he may have a heart attack during that game.

There was a bald guy
with glasses riding the refs all night long in section 12. It was almost just as entertaining to watch as the game, almost.

Not sure
how long they have been in mine (having just checked today) but it was pretty cool that they were in there already and I could add them to my apple wallet. Some of the extras I ordered, for friends, during the promotions are also already showing seat locations instead of having to wait until closer to the game which is nice too.

Season Tickets Are Showing Up
in the Hokiesports app. Sorry if this has been mentioned already. I got my tickets for the NC State (got them through NC State's website) Thursday night away game so I'd figured I would check the Hokiesports app as well.
