Time for a change at Tech
I'm not a huge fan of change. I still drive the beat-up Ford truck I drove in college, and I probably still will even after I hit that 20-team NFL parlay in Vegas. I liked the BCS the way it was. Meeting new friends is fine but not imperative; I still enjoy my old ones. I don't care if everyone says new iPhone is better, because the old one handles all my needs. VT Basketball News
