Seeing as how C.Gally and the rest of the misfits here at NEZ seem to be taking a major break from writing I thought I would pick it up and fill you all in on some information you probably already know.  With Seth gone (please see the previous post for all Seth related facial expressions) the Hokies turn to James Johnson former Associate Head Coach of your Virginia Tech Hokies.  He had accepted a position earlier in April of this year to be an assistant coach at Clemson, but it didn’t take long for JJ to make it back to Blacksburg to accept the head coach position.  Most of you won’t know this but Coach Johnson has been with the Hokies for the last 5 seasons and previously coached at Penn State, and George Mason (during their final four run).

Hopefully Coach Johnson can turn this wayward team around and continue to bring in the recruits to help build the program. We here at NEZ would like to welcome James Johnson as the new Hokies Head Coach and pray we don’t have to write terrible things during the basketball season.

Yes, Hokies, we are STILL alive! No, we didn't disappear and no, we weren't attacked by an unruly mob that detests what we do here. Though, we don't deny that groups like that exist. The boss (that's what he calls himself now) has been doing you all a favor by doing nothing but applying for jobs. Perhaps he can apply for the newest vacancy at Virginia Tech.

SethFaces

In case you didn't hear, Seth Greenberg was fired today. Athletic Director Jim Weaver and Tom Gabbard, Associate Director of Athletics, made the announcement today. We had an opportunity to watch the press conference and it was made clear that it wasn't based on wins and losses, but rather that they needed to go another direction with the leadership. Not to mention, both were displeased with the amount of turnover the coaching staff has gone through recently. In case you didn't know, VT was down to JUST Seth and the players after our last assistant coach went back to ODU for the exact same position. Yikes.

Regardless, the coaching search will begin tomorrow and hopefully we bring in someone who can take us to the next level. We wish you the best of luck Coach Greenberg in your future endeavors. You left the program better than when you came in and did some extraordinary things. We leave you with the many faces of Seth (see above) so that you may marvel in them one last time.

GO HOKIES!!

Typically, our blog is full of shameless plugs, blurbs, one liners, and zingers. We often find ourselves involved in cheeky shenanigans that leave a lot to be desired. Whether it's bashing UVA, hating Duke, or blasting our own sports teams, NEZ definitely knows how to entertain.

Today, however, we are on a more serious notes. Today, we honor and remember those 32 whose lives were lost five years ago to the day. Today, we will neVer forgeT. We will because those 32 cannot. So, if you haven't already, take a moment to reflect and remember those individuals. Because today, we are ALL Hokies. We are Virginia Tech.

What up reeeeeeeeaders?? Sadly, our Hokies were snubbed from both the NCAA and NIT tournaments. Durn. Who would have expected that?! So anyway, we decided we should still do a tournament pool to put your tourney pick 'em skills to the test. We don't really have prizes, but we'll probably think of something. Think you're better than us? Then prove it. Join our league here - Group ID: 172141; password: hokies. So, let's DO THIS!!

Holy shit! Two posts within two days?!?! And about BASKETBALL no less? Man, we are spoiling you rotten! In all likelihood, this is probably the last post we make, but who knows! Perhaps we'll actually win today! In case you didn't know, the ACC tournament starts today and the Hokies have drawn Clemson. This will be the third time we've faced 'em. We've split the series thus far, so this is for bragging rights and a chance to play Duke in the quarterfinals. Woo! So, click to read on loyal subjects!

Oh we know you've all been looking forward to this write-up. Even though it wasn't explicitly said that it would be done, you had to figure that we'd have a few words to say about this season, right? Seriously, where to begin? Honestly, not a whole lot of words can be said to describe what took place this season. When asked to contribute, C Gally said, "yeah, I tried to think of something to write; just...too angry." OK, so that's a good place to start, but let's delve a little deeper into the despair of the men's hoops team. Read on, suckas.

OK, it's official now. Anytime a basketball post is written on this site, the Hokies immediately lose. Then again, losing may be a direct result of us, ummm, well you know, SUCKING.Since the last post, we are now 0-2 with close losses to UVA and Duke. We'll speak a bit more on that after the jump, but for now, let's take a moment to reflect this season. <insert moment of silence here> OK. Thanks for your attention. Now back to Hokie basketball. We play Clemson tonight and all signs point to us losing. Click to read more, bitches.

Ladies and gentlemen, can I please have your attention. I've just been handed an urgent and horrifying awesome news story. I need all of you, to stop what you're doing and listen.

Another sabbatical, but who wouldn't during times like these? Listen, we're trying our best not to get angry, but Greenberg is making it extremely tough. Since our last post for basketball, we've gone 3-3, so perhaps that might be the key. However, since we are playing rival Virginia tonight, there is absolutely no reason you awesome delusional readers shouldn't get a write-up. So, go ahead and click the jump to read a bit more about this game we have going on tonight. We don't think that's too much to ask.

Seth, you kinda suck now
