Nothing has been decided for me at all.

VT women finished 5th nationally the year Queen won her titles. I don’t know what you’re referencing regarding Gold medals. I get it…recency bias. But to say it isn’t even close is just silly.

Spyridon Julian was an all american all 4 years he was here and two time
Hokebury 01/23/24 12:48 PM ET

StautonHokie 01/23/24 10:07 AM ET
Don't forget Chris Smith, Best men's basketball player Tech ever had.
MR TECH 01/23/24 09:43 AM ET
I think in terms of individual achievement that would be the list ...
vt90 01/23/24 08:28 AM ET
Don't forget Carroll Dale as a Hokie & Gr. Bay Packer**
George Baylor 01/23/24 08:09 AM ET
Need separate one for individual vs team sports
hokiepro 01/23/24 07:10 AM ET
And maybe pre-2000 and post-2000 players **
DGHOKIE 01/23/24 10:57 AM ET
Tough one but has to include Frank Loris **

Queen Harrison, Bruce Smith, Michael Vick, Dell Curry, Bimbo Coles**
Hokietech 01/23/24 06:57 AM ET
There is no world in which Bimbo makes it over Liz. Not even close.
King of Hokies 01/23/24 09:22 AM ET
Bold statements.
vthokieq 01/23/24 03:58 PM ET
You don't have to agree about the student athlete thing-- it's already been
King of Hokies 01/23/24 05:41 PM ET
What are you talking about wrt Queen?
hokiepro 01/24/24 01:23 AM ET
Yes, she did. We also have plenty of field athletes that won multiple NCAA
King of Hokies 01/24/24 12:51 PM ET
I agree individual & team are very different
hokiepro 01/24/24 04:54 PM ET
I was referring to the Olympic golds, not the NCAA ones. People act like
King of Hokies 01/25/24 01:11 AM ET
She didn’t win any Olympic gold
hokiepro 01/25/24 06:30 AM ET
Correct...Queen never won an Olympic medal.
vthokieq 01/25/24 08:12 AM ET
Nothing has been decided for me at all.
vthokieq 01/23/24 05:49 PM ET
The ACC decided it. Liz has received the Woman Scholar Athlete of the year
King of Hokies 01/23/24 11:57 PM ET
Ah...I see now...you're trying to be cute.
vthokieq 01/24/24 06:39 AM ET
No argument from me on Liz's worthiness but Bimbo is there.
Hokietech 01/23/24 12:28 PM ET
Lol, everyone telling me to study these athletes that I already know
King of Hokies 01/23/24 05:45 PM ET
This is getting embarrassing for you. A King should have a research staff
hokiepro 01/25/24 08:37 AM ET
Probably because you don't seem to know as much as you think you do.
vthokieq 01/24/24 06:43 AM ET
Tincher definitely surpasses Liz. AT won numerous national awards and of
86TechHokie 01/23/24 12:18 PM ET
Sorry, she played a team sport and her teams never got that far on a
King of Hokies 01/24/24 12:01 AM ET
LOL…she literally pitched 14 shutout innings in WCWS
hokiepro 01/25/24 08:31 AM ET
Uh...you're embarrassing yourself now.
vthokieq 01/24/24 06:48 AM ET
Thank you. Plus she led Tech to it's only 2 ACC tournament championships.
86TechHokie 01/24/24 07:54 AM ET
The only thing the recent softball teams accomplished greater than AT teams
hokiepro 01/25/24 08:34 AM ET
Tincher feat**
TomTurkey 01/23/24 03:41 PM ET
Will wait until Lewis finishes his VT career. Was 2018 Junior World Champ**
Va AandM 01/23/24 07:06 AM ET
I would put Queen Harrison on before Kitley
UpperQuad 01/23/24 12:46 AM ET
Liz, Dell, Tyrod, Mike Vick**
ONELLY 01/22/24 11:07 PM ET
Bruce over Dell or Tyrod
hokiepro 01/23/24 07:13 AM ET
Not to mention he went #1 in the NFL draft
EDGEMAN 01/23/24 10:30 AM ET
Bruce is worthy. But this is my personal top 4.**
ONELLY 01/23/24 08:05 AM ET
DeAngelo Hall or Tyrod Taylor**
carhokies 01/22/24 10:44 PM ET
Probably **
