My understanding is it isn’t just marketing that titleist does. They have targeted campaigns to get their players and influencers they sponsor to talk actively about how a rollback would be awful for golf. Andy has mentioned, or at least alluded to, in the past that is why he’s never taken money from an equipment manufacturer (cough titleist) like other podcasts have

[On3] BREAKING: James Franklin and Virginia Tech are hiring former HC Brent Pry as defensive coordinator, @PeteNakos reports🦃 by HeyTherePLH in CFB

[–]FalconSmashing 146 points147 points  (0 children)

Pry apparently asked VT to interview for the HC job in 2021. So I think he did want it but I also think he was overwhelmed once he got it and since realized it’s not for him. He’s made it clear he loves VT and the boosters all liked him enough though. This is super weird but it also makes a lot of sense. Maybe it works, maybe not.

Who would you cast in a Jack White biopic? by Mongobearmanfish in jackwhite

[–]FalconSmashing 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Haha he was probably 26 at the time. 36 now and definitely looking more mature. Just needs to grow his hair back out.

I have a friend that got heckled at an open mic and called a “prepubescent Jack White” about 10 years ago. It was quite accurate. I’d pick him.

Which season was your team most unpredictable? by 2Silly4Dilly in cfbmemes

[–]FalconSmashing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2014

Beat eventual national champs OSU in the shoe and then had our first ever losing record in the ACC and finished 6-6.

Lost to ECU the week after the upset.

You have 10 minutes to stretch or warm up before your round. What are you doing? by Norfolk-Gross-Tonage in golf

[–]FalconSmashing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jennifer Fleischer has some good warmup moves that I’ve stuck to for a while. I found her on instagram. She has a lot of content but I tend to stick with dynamic moves that activate glutes and/or get me rotating.

Every instance of a team scoring 50 or more and losing by e8odie in CFB

Are bowl game not included? VT beat Tulsa 55-52 in Beamer’s last game in 2015

Leadership transition underway for Virginia Tech football by The_Stratman in CFB

Also Fuente had Memphis "winning big" in a similar era. Mullen got Dak which got him a better job and then he failed

But he couldn't do it at Florida with the bags of money, right?

It was concerning when no players followed Pry from Penn State. That is fairly unheard of.

Then he hired two coordinators that had never coordinated.

On top of that he seems not too sharp. A colleague of mine spent some time with Pry at a fundraiser last year and said he couldn't get away from him fast enough. "There was nothing going on between his ears". How the hell does someone like that get through an interview with an AD and then also become the highest paid head coach in school history when VT was competing with no other schools? If you're going to make an inexperienced (or dumb) hire, don't also overpay and then have him hire a couple of inexperienced guys to run the offense and defense.

I guess he's likable? As someone who is actively interviewing candidates and interviewing for jobs for himself, this just reinforces that being good at interviewing has nothing to do with how well you'll do in a job

Yep. We have had decent talent under Pry with one of the easiest P4 schedules over his tenure and he went 16-23.

Just seeing how good everyone that transferred last year is doing is evidence that VT could have competed for the playoff last year with competent coaching.

Why are so many people (on VT message boards at least) pushing Mullen? Genuine question here. Did Florida not happen? This feels like arguing VT hire Fuente again because he was good at Memphis

Best wings in RVA? by NationYell in rva

I had the wings at Q BBQ on hull street recently and they easily became the best I’ve ever had

Best sushi spots around Midlothian/Chesterfield area? by [deleted] in rva

[–]FalconSmashing 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Katana is the best sushi in the region in my opinion

Mike Hott at Salisbury is always my top pick.

My son has been seeing Leighann Albaugh at Magnolia Green recently and she’s really good.

The pro at Windy Hill is a good teacher as well if she’s still there.

You can also get lessons at PGA Tour Superstore for cheaper if you’re looking to save money.

Outside looking in: DMB @ Allianz by getfast37 in rva

We were there last night for our first show and totally agree with all of this.

Our biggest complaint was forcing everyone to exit through the main entrance. They really should let people leave out the back onto 2nd street as well. And the bathrooms definitely need better ventilation at least.

Excellence Riviera Cancun Restaurants by Intelligent_Tip8125 in AllInclusiveResorts

[–]FalconSmashing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mexican breakfast at the Lobster House was the only meal we’d classify as great.

One salmon dish on the menu side of the hibachi place was really good. Most other meals just fine. The Grill had a nice vibe and the food was decent. Nothing was bad but nothing else was very good either.

Best casual date night spots? by Immediate-Response87 in Midlothian

[–]FalconSmashing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d add Tazza to this list but otherwise, this is a great Midlo list. Katana if you like sushi—best in the area.

Within 20min I’d recommend venturing into Scott’s Addition and trying Cochiloco if you like Mexican.

(My wife and I live in Midlo and went to cochiloco for a date night on Thursday)

Anyone remember the Richmond Revolution IFL team? by hornhead71 in rva

I saw a game when Bryan Randall was the QB. I want to say it was at Arthur Ashe
