Recap: Hokies vs. Wahoos Frank Beamer's Not Done Quite Yet

It was an overcast Saturday at noon sitting in B-Dubs with my daughter, Joe R-S, and Joshua. We left NOVA at just before 7:00 and made it to Blacksburg at just before 11:00. Well, the hope had been to go to Hooville to catch the game live, but the wallet and the clock really didn't allow for the detour. So there we sat with the growing crowd watching the first half of the last regular season game for Frank Beamer's Hokies. You see, before Frank (will that be BF now?) we were just the Fighting Gobblers. The "Hokie" think was still "Old Hokie" and though the brand was established the bird was still not quite the same, and the national image wasn't much better looking.
