I've thought for years

The only way we'll need expansion is SEC membership. A high % of those schools will bring 20k+. And having the opportunity to see the big draws play, I won't list them there are too many, will boost season ticket sales and entice more casual fans to come a few times a year as opposed to all TV. ** Edited by crazylane at 5/8/2026, 10:25:05 AM

Chase Johnson Commits To Virginia Tech (Story)**
David CunninghamAdmin • 05/08/26 12:01 AM ET
1 year ago, the hope of landing this type of recruit was almost gone!
jonnyhawk • 05/08/26 12:13 PM ET
Not to be a Debbie D, but can JF replicate it on the field?
Hate2SeeItEnd Hokie • 05/10/26 06:14 PM ET
No Michigan, Oregon Ohio State, etc to worry about **
VaTechHokiesACC • 05/13/26 05:22 AM ET
I'm not sure why losing to OSU so much was ever a knock on him.
TekkNerd • 05/11/26 08:40 AM ET
Has he actually visited Blacksburg yet? Seems to strange to commit with all
RichCat • 05/08/26 09:04 AM ET
I read another article that said he visited in April
crazylane • 05/08/26 10:18 AM ET
His OV is May 29. Committing early assures him of a seat.

VT will need to increase Lane capacity to 86k seats in a couple of years
Windows NT • 05/08/26 08:35 AM ET
Someone needs to invent multilevel "roll out seating sections"

crazylane • 05/08/26 10:24 AM ET
Premium seating will be the likely focus of any expansion, not capacity**
BROman Hokie • 05/08/26 09:18 AM ET
Yeah, this is probably the max that Lane will seat, and that's fine.**
reestuart • 05/08/26 11:36 AM ET
Tear down NEnd Zone. Could get 10K more than now. Expensive though**
Hate2SeeItEnd Hokie • 05/09/26 10:34 AM ET
I just don’t think there is a need. **
reestuart • 05/09/26 05:32 PM ET
20k new premium wide seats would be nice
Windows NT • 05/08/26 09:23 AM ET
It all takes time
1947Sunbowl • 05/08/26 08:56 AM ET
Lane is probably going to need some structural fixes in the near future
Culpeper Hokie • 05/08/26 09:22 AM ET
It looks worse than it is
1947Sunbowl • 05/08/26 12:28 PM ET
Similar work on. Rr tressem fburg
1947Sunbowl • 05/08/26 07:26 PM ET
Good eye. Believe that's being addressed this summer.
kingofcassell • 05/08/26 11:01 AM ET
Over Arizona State, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, FSU, Georgia, and GT.
BigDaddyHokie • 05/08/26 07:55 AM ET
Assuming it's a real offer, I'm most impressed by the Indiana offer
marcbvtgm • 05/08/26 11:16 AM ET
Yeah, IU has the best evaluator of talent in the business right now.
reestuart • 05/08/26 03:18 PM ET
Just a couple of years ago you would have been laughed for referencing
