I thought the commentator had some interesting insights - better than avg

but he definitely needs practice getting this thoughts together quickly then smoothly verbalizing them Also appreciated the acknowledgement after halftime that he was using an unpopular nickname for Virginia Tech, and he tried to stop... but then he went right back to calling us V-Tech. Sure seemed like V-Tech was an ingrained habit going back to when he was being recruited in HS by VT coaches who used that nickname. But just call us Tech or VT if Virginia Tech takes too long to say

And after halftime, he acknowledged how we hate it and he'd try and stop

If Tennessee Tech is not too long to say, then there's no reason to shorten

He had one interesting insight, IMO, everything else was typical drivel

I've called them Gah Tech for years, but only as a joke to those who know
