I guess Mountain Lake isn’t an option or it’s booked too. Plenty of meeting

Room space & still within mileage limits I’d think

Our AD be proactive? Was that meant as a joke?**
Atlee Hokie • 03/23/26 03:12 PM ET
Great reply. Should we laugh or should we cry?**
william floyd • 03/23/26 04:17 PM ET
And what can he or anyone do?
TomTurkey • 03/23/26 03:20 PM ET
Well we may not be only school with graduation conflict BUT
hokiepro • 03/23/26 07:13 PM ET
Especially with the size of the graduating classes**
TomTurkey • 03/23/26 07:33 PM ET
Turn the drillfield into an RV park and campground. Bring in the porta

IKEA temporary hotel?**

Like a rock!**
TomTurkey • 03/23/26 03:02 PM ET
Wish and hope that enough nearby hotels are open on a certain May weekend..
Nick BrownAdmin • 03/23/26 11:08 AM ET
Aren't the dorms empty for graduation? If so, put teams in the dorms
laphroaig • 03/23/26 04:48 PM ET
Would have to keep Owens open also, correct?**
Atlee Hokie • 03/23/26 06:34 PM ET
Yeah, that's definitely an issue.**
RJHokie • 03/23/26 02:35 PM ET
I share your concerns, Nick

This discussion happens last year; a certain investigative

Have the regional dates been announced?**
Chesapeake_Hokie • 03/23/26 11:43 AM ET
The first games of the CWS are slated for Thursday, May 28. [Continued]
Nick BrownAdmin • 03/23/26 12:50 PM ET
Thanks so much @Nick Brown
Chesapeake_Hokie • 03/23/26 01:54 PM ET
So the visiting team hotel might be in Bluefield. Is this a problem? 😉**
vatechcowpatty • 03/23/26 01:43 PM ET
More likely Princeton. The hotel situation in Bluefield is non-existent **
Nortazhokie • 03/23/26 02:47 PM ET
Graduation is enough of a ****show for hotels. Can’t imagine a regional too
The_Stratman • 03/23/26 01:12 PM ET
it's 30 rooms per team for 3 teams, plus rooms for NCAA officials
VTChip • 03/23/26 01:52 PM ET
Oh I misread that
The_Stratman • 03/23/26 01:59 PM ET
They did it back when we hosted the regionals in 2022. **

Well that is good news!**
The_Stratman • 03/23/26 06:03 PM ET
In retrospect the regionals that year were actually a week later.
RJHokie • 03/23/26 06:24 PM ET
This isn't true at all. Do you know what demand for hotel rooms
King of Hokies • 03/23/26 02:27 PM ET
If there’s an excuse for not doing something; our Ath.Dept will use it to..
hokiepro • 03/23/26 05:10 PM ET
They just have zero imagination or ability to problem solve**
King of Hokies • 03/23/26 05:32 PM ET
In looking at the metrics below, VT is in good shape, BUT

Good suggestion other than the distance involved
VTChip • 03/23/26 03:20 PM ET
I misplaced the comment. I meant it in response to your $1,000/night
nkhooch • 03/24/26 01:51 PM ET
I’ve got to know if VT admin has punted on hosting due to graduation
hokiepro • 03/23/26 12:19 PM ET
I graduated on June 6 - quarter system
TomTurkey • 03/23/26 03:11 PM ET
We don’t need any upsets in the 3
VTSweaterMan • 03/23/26 10:03 AM ET
Massey Ratings have us with an expected value of 17- 4 in our remaining
