Virginia Tech, my Alma mater for both undergrad and grad school, was holding their spring football game today at Lane Stadium.
They opened the game with jumpers parachuting in with the American flag during the pre-game. This happened. I’ve dropped a million jumpers over the years, looks like the winds were too much. This jumper was rescued by the Blacksburg Fire Department. He’s ok.
I was there for this. My kids were extremely excited for the skydivers so I had my eyes on the plane as soon as it was spotted in the sky. They dropped streamers out of the plane 20-30 minutes prior to the jump and the streamers drifted WAY off course, landed nowhere close to the stadium. The first skydiver was able to land safely but it was rocky. Second skydiver bailed out of the stadium landing and landed behind it on the practice field. Third skydiver was not as lucky. I’m no expert, but the wind seemed way too high for them to be cleared to jump.
It’s only spring, and we’ve already got so much swagger back. James Franklin exiting the tunnel for warm ups to Jay Z’s Public Service Announcement….🔥🔥🔥

Let’s lose the golf course a bit. Turn Sat/Sun into the ultimate test. Be okay w/allowing Mother Nature to run its course, esp w/ light winds. Limit water! Make it a year we tell our grandkids about decades from now. Poofs of dust flying up, sandbelt firmness! The ultimate major.

Radko Gudas was responsible for ending Auston Matthews season with a knee to knee hit. This is the first time the two teams have played eachother since then… right off the puck drop the gloves are dropped 🥊
🚨🚨🚨 OMG - What else is there to say about Virginia Tech commit Bo BASSETT (USA) ?!
The high school senior (!!!) just accomplished an INSANE feat - adding Olympic Champion🥇Vladimir KHINCHEGASHVILI (GEO) to his hit list. Not only did he beat him, but he dominated from start to finish winning by 13-3 TF 🤯‼️
Argue with your momma - Bo Bassett is one of the greatest prospects ever seen in the sport. Period. 🫡
