35 years on, and I still have the recurring dream of taking an exam I did not prepare for; I canāt even read the language.
But at least I have clothes on.

I just realized that our game is tonight. Monday holidays always screw me up (usually in a good way)
I think thatās the most common dream (have an exam - didnāt prepare)**
Second most common is watching us miss contested midrange jumpers for the rest of eternity
** maybe not most common, but still common. Interesting article here:

I have one where I dream I redshirted so have another year to play. I then realise I havent played basketball in a year and am not in basketball shape. I then realise practice has been going on for like a week and Coach Jones doesnt even care I am missing. Finally I get to the gym to get to working out and I cant put my shoes on for some reason or one is missing or whatever
Crazy part is there is no panic about me at all through this hahahahah

(Iām sorry ā¦ I swear ā¦ ok okay, Iām logging off)
Just to be contrary, Iāll predict that D-Ro will be our lead scorer tonight.

If so, Iām claiming itās because of the nickname
From Chris Arvin, Hokies 247 guy. This is probably a good sign since heās usually wrong
Prediction
Just like the last game, my prediction hinges on the health of Hunter Cattoor. I am going to take a pure guess he makes his way back for this game and that tilts things in Virginia Techās favor. If he is unavailable it feels like there is too much pressure for the Hokies to overcome in a tough environment. Either way, I believe the game should be close as two teams that can have great moments but have underperformed as a whole compared to early expectations. Getting this one will feel big for both sides for a number of reasons and getting an extra shooter gives too many options for the Hokies and they pull it out behind a solid Cattoor return.
Final: Virginia Tech 69 Virginia 62

Like many he doesnāt believe in us. That will continue until we win some games. I do believe being at home should change their calculus, but we shall see.

My thoughts on the game before I commit to trying to work todayā¦
Cattoor being out would obviously be huge. Zero excuses not to win if heās not able to go. Letās assume he does though since itās our luck Iām taking into accountā¦
This VT team even with Cattoor is probably the easiest to guard that weāve seen in a few years. Mutts killed us and thankfully they donāt have a big with his passing ability. Beekman can keep Pedulla in check and thatās going to be important since as he goes, so does their offense. Stifle him and I think we could seize momentum.
Kidd is a tough matchup but soft. Would like to see some Minor on him to body him up. Keep him out of the paint and heās ineffective. Not a great passer either but still hope we donāt double with their shooters. Tech has a tendency to get flustered like we do so this is a good game to get home court momentum. Could see a Syracuse type of performance but since itās a rivalry game, and we havenāt played like that in a month, im expecting a slug fest, butt clencher of a game.
This is a game where we need REECE! He can cook Pedulla and they are really bad at stopping penetration. He needs to take over
We need this game.
A couple of game day complaints that I hope are reversedā¦
-
I hope Wahoo fans show up. The attendance is underwhelming. I expect 25-33% Tech fans but hope Iām wrong.
-
Given another full 10 days, I hope theyāve finally fixed the speakers at JPJ. They are terrible this year and canāt understand a thing.
-
Theyāve run out of programs every home game. My son loves to collect them and we usually have to hunt for one on the ground. I hope they donāt do that again.
-
call me a loser, but I miss halftime shows. Where are the dogs, the quick change, red panda? Instead we see random 4th years from Nova playing knockout.
Anyway unrelated to performance (or maybe it plays into it) probably not going to renew season tickets. Much cheaper just to buy on the secondary markets and value is perennially decreasing.

I used to have a dream a lot where I could go back to high school for one more year after 4 years of all the summer runs in college against college and pro guys and take all the tricks I learned with me and use em on the unsuspecting high school kidsā¦
Yikes ā¦ so youāre saying weāre scoring 34 as a team?
They shut that down after the PED controversy. Last baby to win was a 5 month old with a mustache. She was a cute baby though.
