Thanks!

Tickets haven't come yet, so I'm not sure if anyone here will be able to tell yet.

I can't wait for the day, hopefully not too far into the season, where Rocco's facetious jests turn into serious jaw-dropping awe! (But then again, perhaps it will be for a different Tribe QB, not Mitchell .......)

I just hope he's half as good as Raphael Ortiz. /Genuflects

What's that supposed to mean? Hope it's not a slam on Ortiz, who played well for us and was severely hampered by injuries. If it is a slam, put it in your hat and leave it there.

Amen.

That may have been one of the most miserable days as a Tribe fan ever. We had injuries, played three quarterbacks, and gave up huge plays to UVA's true freshmen.

The one I cant forget was two years ago. That should have been a W. (Add that to Maryland in 2012, West Virginia in 2013, maybe even UNC in 2010)

Two years ago, UVa gave W&M the big double bird by only assigning us upper deck, and based on the tickets currently available via tribeathletics.com, this year will be no different.

Fortunately, the odds that this game will sell out are about the same as the odds that Bronco Mendenhall will have a post-game beer, so we should stand out regardless. This may be payback for the size of our section in 2009.

Expect some sort of a ceremony at the game

I saw that UVA OT Jack English is suspended for the Tribe game.

Good to see Tribal Fever offering students a $20 bus+ticket combo.

New announcer for ESPN coverage of UVA game. When will the insanity end?

Unreal? Nah, it's very real until the next hot offensive issue comes along. Lee should walk and contact some Asian-American advocacy group and drag ESPN through the mud.

True but isnt going from a UVA game to a Pitt game more of an upgrade?

I see this as a win. Hopefully the coaches are more focused on answering questions about this than worrying about the FURY OF SHON MITCHELL AND COMPANY. (Or Brandon Battle. Or Dean Rotger. Or Ted Hefter. Or....)

This gives some more context on the decision:

There is definitely some merit to the point that the internet would have had a field day with the "Robert Lee coming to you live from Charlottesville" and some great memes probably would have ensued.

unless he said "General Robert Lee coming to you live from Charlottesville"

Probably goes by Rob or Bob....

Wahoowah is a racist Indian chant that started at Dartmouth...so whats the big deal?

Yeah, because that definitely isn't happening now. Smart move by ESPN, avoiding a potentially embarrassing scenario like that...

Meanwhile, casting aside, hopefully permanently, the Bob Lee miniature uproar, back at the ranch what's happening with the Laycock naming his starting qb? Do we still have a vow of silence in place?

BT3 - this is not targeted at you but following up on your question, what possible benefit is there to publicly releasing this information prior to the opening drive at UVa? My guess is that it has either been shared amongst the team or anyone with any common sense on the team can tell who it will be by now.

All of us here - everyone - are outsiders. Yes, there are some that are well connected within Tribe Football, and they may be less of outsiders than most, but in reality unless you are a coach, player, or staff member, you are an outsider. Years ago I was an insider, now I'm an outsider. No outsider needs to know before the opening drive.
