100%! UVA also is a huge reason why Va Tech woke up, we have been asleep at

the wheel for a long time. Heck, the leaders in the state of Virginia have been asleep. UVA taking a bold step forward made us rethink what we are doing and it is so good for the state of Virginia that both of us need to be National Powers in Football and Basketball. It helps the whole state economy, not to mention that our college graduates bring attention and talent to the state. I love our history, but we need to learn from the both good and bad , and use it to make us lead and not follow. PS Get an interstate from Richmond to Roanoke to complete the triangle, the shape of our state. North Carolina is killing us because they get this and make all parts of their state much more accessible.
