Jason from Arlington fast becoming a celebrity

For those of you who haven't heard, Frank Beamer is mad this week.

Really mad.

On his weekly Hokie Hotline radio show, Jason from Arlington called in and asked a question a lot of were thinking but didn't have the gumption to voice:

“We talk about winning 10 games a year and winning ACC championships. But who are we kidding? We’re not going to achieve our goal of winning a national championship in football with the offense we’ve seen over the past seven years. I’m just thinking if we don’t make a change here … VT football’s hit the ceiling. You’ve brought us to a really good place, but in order to get to the next level, we’re going to have to get an offense to go with that defense.”


Beamer got very defensive, both on his show and in his weekly pressers, and in turn, his practices this week have been more hands-on, more intense, he is really lighting a fire under these guys. So, we can thank Jason from Arlington, who by the way, has his own blog.

Based on what I have been hearing, the added spunk and fire that Beamer is showing this week may pay dividends come Saturday.

So, after the game on Saturday, take a moment to thank Jason from Arlington.

He even made the ESPN halftime show last night.

Kudos Jason.
