Imo the best players of the Macovic era

When I say there are a LOT of Texas fans here in VA...I mean it. Tons of clothing in the stores when I used to have to special order anything not ACC...or Big East then. I talk to other Texas fans at work all the time. Recruiting, coaching...awesome.

Dudes, that game was in NOLA------- do the math. Ya'll are lucky we even showed for that game. If you'd have lit a match at any point on our practice field, there would have been nothing left but a smoking crater.

clob you guys broke my heart....I am still not healed completely from it. lol Were they better clob or did you guys blow it?
 
They killed Texas with Beamerball.....right before the half a punt return for TD....a fumble for TD.....I think VT only scored on 1 regular drive? Can remember exactly. I caught hell out here. I still love my Longhorns! I got the last laugh in 2005...haha

I don't even remember who was posting on this board back in 2005, but we had a couple of ultra-sh*tbird Hokie trolls around here for two or three weeks running their mouths about how they were going to jump us in the BCS rankings. One of the very few times I've ever pulled for the 'Canes like they were my own team was that early-November beatdown they laid on VT in Blacksburg. I bet you were walking around with quite the sh*t-eating grin for a while over there in VA.

Ehhhh, were they better? They out drank us at Pat O'Brian's one night. But in our defense, we didn't have the same drinking crew we had the year prior at the Sun Bowl. We CRUSHED the drinking record in El Pass at that country bar--- midnight rodeo I think. Crushed it-- and Mack Brown didn't let North Carolina players drink at all. So we had to beat the previous record set by Texas Tech and OU combined.


Yes, re-read that. One team, beat the record for a bar tab set by TWO teams. All drinks were free btw. We crushed it in El Paso. Then the next year, VA Tech proved to be some hard drinkers. If it would have been a beer drinking contest, I think we win---- but those hillbillies drank whiskey like it was momma titty milk. Unreal.

In short, did we come to play? Sort of. But whiskey and white Castle and 6am Beignets (ben-yays) for you dumb a$$es, certainly had an effect on us. Consequently, I still have my VIP card from Larry Flynt's Hustlers.....

Pat Hays was a good dude. I spent a lot of time with him in the training room when he was rehabbing his knee.

Another huge guy was Chris Akins. I don't think he was as athletic as Casey Hampton but he was a solid guy.
Speed-------------- so you know about P Hayes eh??


BUT, do you KNOW about P Hayes????

Know what I mean?

YES I was BRB! I loved the Canes that night! VT fans are as bad as aggys..almost. I am serious. They built a case for their National Championship trophy after beating Texas because they just "knew" they were going to get one. They look pathetic now. I did respect Coach Beamer...and I think they got a good coach in Fuente. I don't like the Hokies though....although my daughter married a Hokie that is one of the best men I know. So I have softened on them some. lol

I'll just console myself by imagining that Mackovic would have been back after 1997 if y'all had won that game.

I'm waiting on speedstrength to get back to me---- if he responds properly, I've got some good sh!t about my boy P Hayes.
 
I was a freshman in 95, My main job was to clean the training room. I got to go out to practice maybe 1 day a week, sometimes 2 times a week. Pat Hayes would come in and do rehab during practice and I would get him ice for his knee and chit chat while I was cleaning.
 
Sooooo you don't know the stories about P Hayes and his......... appendage?
 
Yeah nothing like that ever came up. Mostly small talk, stuff about rehab. I cant say that it ever got any deeper than that. I talked to a few of the guys but never more than basic small talk.

The only one I talked a lot with was Melvin Jenkins. Awesome dude, walk on and I guess he was a scout team all star becuase he would get beat on every day and come back for more. We had this stuff called atomic balm and it burned so much I put gloves on when I used it to massage his hamstrings. I guess I did a decent job becuase he would always come find me. One day he came in and he could hardly walk. Apparenlty the O-line was screwing up on some trap play and he ended up with Dan Neil pulling around on him like 10 times in a row.

Melly Mel! Loved that dude. He was 1% athletic ability and 99% heart.

Atomic balm was nuclear bro. Just ask John Elmore and Tyson king. Somebody put it in their jock strap one dsy. I'll never tell who it was.

So you don't know the stories about P Hayes and his schlong? That's the only human being I've ever seen that could walk into the Men's restroom and piss in the women's.
Every time that dude got an erection he needed a blood transfusion. I swear to God that thing had its own zip code.
 
Nah never heard those kinda stories. Never went into the showers until after the guys were done. We used to fill up these garbage cans with Ice water. 1 day a week I had to stay late and dump them out. One time John Elmore was still sitting in one so that was the only dude I saw naked. not a pretty site

Tyson king used to crack me up. They used to practice on that crappy carpet and he would get some nasty turf burn. He hated it when I had to put the hydrogen peroxide on it. Apparently if you blow on the bubbling peroxide it doesn't sting as much. The first time I treated him he was yelling at me to blow on his leg while he was trying to blow on his leg. Was all I could do to keep from laughing.
 
I used to sit in those ice cans for 5 minutes after practice. Brutal. Yes Elmore was a fat ba$tard that was built like farm animal- but I loved that dude. The crappy carpet was our turf on the field. The REALLY crappy carpet was on the roof of the weight room. My God that sh!t sucked balls.

I still have a turf burn scar on my elbow from 1994. To this day I will get tiny little "pimples" on it and when I whip out the magnifying glass and tweezers, I pull out little green astroturf flakes.

So is it safe to assume that he has a career in the porn industry now?
 
Dude could be the designated tester of the tensil strength of Hefty garbage bags........
