    Interesting note in this article from the Richmond Times Dispatch:

    The Hokies, who went 7-6 last season, will host N.C. State in a Friday night game, according to a source.

    I don’t like this for a lot of reasons. And, don’t fool yourself into thinking there WON’T be a NCHSAA coaching revolt that State would dare play on Friday night…even though it wouldn’t be our decision and would be all about the conference and TV.

    Will be interesting to see if this source is accurate.

    Since the NFL has beefed up their Thursday night games by playing divisional match-ups on CBS. The ACC might want to allow more Friday games for exposure. It won’t be “perfect exposure” since recruits would be playing on Friday, but for ratings, etc the ACC might do better on Friday if an important NFL game has locked up Thursday night’s audience.

    I’m all for it. Friday nights are perfect viewing times for me. Saturdays keep getting tougher and tougher.

    What? Backlash zeroed on State for playing according to schedule?

    Come on. Dontcha think that’s taking the paranoia over the top?
