RIght before the season started I stated that I hated VT worse than any other team we face, more so than Clemson, Ga and Miami. Why? Because of this arrogance that they think they are the king of the hill and everyone else is beneath them. And when they do not win, why it’s someone else’s fault, GT cheated, Bama cheated, Refs Cheated. The truth is Beamer knows this cr@p is not going away and GT whipping his @ss is not just a one time deal and he cannot stand it. It is over for these Tech impersonators. God, I hope Butch Davis and the Heels rise to the occasion and beat his @ss too. Good riddance, backwood redneck hillbilly inbreds

dear tech fans who have just came out of the woodwork…this includes the leftover recruits that play on your high school football team. The kind of blocking that tech employs EVERYplay will get you a direct arse-whopping under a pile in an NFL game. you think that a grown 300 lb. man making milions of dollars is going to let you cheap shot his knees play after play after play? If you think this is real blocking that is going to get you anywhere in your football career besides straight to a high school playbook or straight to a beat down in the NFL showers, you are wrong. I think beamer is just pointing out the obvious: not that these individual plays were legal or illegal, but that the blocking scheme the nerds use is pretty much useless at the next level. So all of you potential nerd OL recruits out there deciding between tech and vanderbilt (because this is the type of school tech competes with for recruits), please don’t ruin 4 years of football for yourself. Learn blocking the right way, not from pajama pants small johnson. And for all of you bashing Beamer’s face, well PJ looks exactly like him, except more like a turkey with that gobbler of his. Also, keep in mind that if it wasn’t for Beamer and VT these past few years the ACC would be held to even a lower standard than it is currently…

Rather than change the existing rules, they should enforce defensive holding! The DL was only “engaged” because he was holding the other OL. Beamer just wants to make it safer for his DL’s to cheat.

It’s Beamer being Beamer. He pulled the same crap a few years ago when the Dawgs beat them in the Chick-Fil-A bowl. Eight months later, at the start of the next season, he’s complaining that UGA cheated by spying on his practice sessions. In his world, it’s always someone else’s fault. The guys a sore loser, plain and simple. Hold your heads high, Tech fans, the ACC title is in sight.

Oh, and “Fightin’ Gobbler”, I think you’re just bitter because both teams from Ga. kicked your ass in big games.

EW, Good grief, CPJ does NOT coach CHOP blocking! Chop blocking is ILLEGAL.

He retracted some but then went on to talk about other issues he had with game and officiating. I agree with the posters that say he is just setting the stage – I think – for next year’s game in Blacksburg. Look for us to get a bunch of bad calls if the refs succumb to his pressure.

All said – we need to concentrate on Vandy and beat them and go to 8-1 and maybe the Top 10!!!!!

CPJ runs his offensive (chop) blocking schemes like any other O line uses holding. Yeah it happens on a lot of plays, yeah it’s against the rules, but it’s also one of those things where there is some gray area you can operate in and get away with it. Do I think it’s dirty? I think it’s football.

With the apology, Beamer appears to have retracted the assertion that the hits were illegal and instead suggests that those types of hits should be made illegal in the future. Nice try at a recovery buy now you look more like a whiny new hire instead of seasoned coach. He should have taken the opportunity to show his players how to lose with dignity. I lost all respect for this prick. What an idiot for joining a player on a little hissy fit campaign.

VT fans must be ashamed.

I vote for re-entry into the SEC! Let VT win the ACC every year. Who really cares, their program has always been another thug U. Yeah, I’m dreaming, but oh, what a DREAM!

Watch the replay of the game, and keep an eye on Kam Chancellor. You will see why he is looking for excuses. The guy played absolutely miserable. The truth is every head coach will get a call weekly from the conference saying that they had illegal blocks, holds, etc… that are not called. The only reason this was publicized was because CPJ’s offense is different from all the others and Beamer made a point to try and call him out on it. Unsuccessfully I might add. I am glad he manned up and apologized. On the other hand, It seems like we average at least 5 penalties a week for illegal blocks. Not an actual fact probably, but it sure feels like we do.
