Fair enough

For the record I mumbled to myself “it’s time for Schutt” and left it at that, from the comfort of my iPhone screen in the middle of the desert. apparently Mike Young had the same conclusion. I thought the fan reaction, which I didn’t hear on tv or wasn’t paying attention to the noise, was pretty entertaining. I’d counter to say the bare minimum is they could not show up at all. At the end of the day I’m not saying buying a ticket gives anyone any RIGHT to do x y z by any means but it does seem lost sometimes that literally the ONLY reason why ANY of this exists is PURELY to entertain the fans. Coaches players media etc tend to get lost in that bubble too often. Literally that’s it. Doesn’t give the right to be abusive but also can’t be that dismissive and demeaning of their existence or presence or opinions in the whole thing. At the end of the day the coaches and players are just a dog and pony show to entertain the nut low peasantry, they’re not much different from clowns or gladiators, there’s not much more to it than that everything else is layers of window dressing. Cue Clerks “this job would be GREAT if it wasn’t for the damn CUSTOMERS!!” Lololol

Agree cannot boo the player!
RiverVT 02/01/26 08:31 AM ET
I understand people get frustrated but booing players is not helping.**
HokiesACC2004 02/01/26 07:40 PM ET
I don’t think booing is warranted, but also it’s excusable for pros
soflahokie 02/01/26 02:00 PM ET
I think booing is now on the table due to millionaire players.
proudhokie2001 02/01/26 12:05 PM ET
No. Still a jerk move.**
WestEndHokie39 02/01/26 12:26 PM ET
So no booing refs either, right?**
HokieGator 02/01/26 01:27 PM ET
We should boo the mascots instead. Lol**

Regarding Maurice DeShazo...
Will StewartAdmin 02/01/26 10:04 AM ET
Tranquil the tranquilizer ... it was horrendous play calling **
HokieGT 02/01/26 02:15 PM ET
Tranquill ruined DeShazo's senior year.**
Walkin` Willie 02/01/26 11:32 AM ET
I know this has been the sentiment to the point it’s accepted as fact. But,
proudhokie2001 02/01/26 12:01 PM ET
Maurice was a Fran Tarkenton, not a Johnny Unitas
TomTurkey 02/01/26 12:23 PM ET
I remember cheering when we threw a long, incomplete pass. **
RhinoVT 02/01/26 10:39 AM ET
EXACTLY. I remember that like yesterday.
Will StewartAdmin 02/01/26 11:31 AM ET
Treg Koel...the OG Grant Noel?**
MP4VT2004 02/02/26 07:11 PM ET
Thank heaven I have no recollection
TomTurkey 02/01/26 11:43 AM ET
Relax. I was at the game, this is way overblown.
Apex-Hokie 02/01/26 08:34 AM ET
Everyone around me was B and M about it - I wasn’t around students **
AnotherTechW 02/01/26 09:43 AM ET

CPVT3 02/01/26 09:08 AM ET
Not defend it is a pretty low bar to meet...but alas**
GCHokie34 02/01/26 09:50 AM ET
Are the students on this message board defending it?**
GCHokie34 02/01/26 08:39 AM ET
I’ll defend it
s11rww 02/01/26 10:38 AM ET
Could you at least get his photo out of your profile if that's your take?

GCHokie34 02/01/26 11:56 AM ET
Sure there is
s11rww 02/01/26 12:34 PM ET
I have zero issue stating flatly I'm better than anyone who boos teens**

MP4VT2004 02/02/26 07:15 PM ET
Id have the same opinion if college sports operated completely non profit
GCHokie34 02/01/26 03:06 PM ET
Quick way to lose a debate. Maybe "logic" but "higher intelligence"? **
TomTurkey 02/01/26 12:19 PM ET
Logic says
s11rww 02/01/26 01:15 PM ET
I like your post - but I cannot defend booing.
Walkin` Willie 02/01/26 11:47 AM ET

Culpeper Hokie 02/01/26 09:04 AM ET
