Well it is January 2010

I haven't written in this thing in forever. I'm noticing more and more it is tough to take the time and write a blog. I have so much less time at home in the evenings than I use too. Which leaves me to wonder about something.

TWITTER: So I have a Twitter account with the sole purpose of following the likes of TO and OchoCinco and a few other people I find interesting. I've had no interest in "tweeting" I only want to get the latest breaking news and follow sports headlines as they happen. That being said I'm starting to wonder if I should actually start posting some annoying "tweets".

See with a blog I have to wait and put all my thoughts together and take the time to post them which I'm finding time consuming. Plus half the time I forget things and don't have the chance to jot them down. I think if used the right way Twitter could be fun. I do promise you though I won't post every little stupid thing I do just to advertise my life. It's more a way for me to express what I'm thinking not what I'm doing. Anyway we'll see what happens.

Moving on with more important things.

College football in 2010. So it's very rare you'll hear me say this and yes I know it's way early but I love VT's chances in 2010. Virginia Tech's national championship chances usually run in three to four year cycles. Last season was a rebuilding year and somehow we won the ACC. This year we had a better team talent wise but managed to do worse than we should. 2010 I think is our next best chance at a nation championship.

Factors for success: Defense getting back to the level we should be and making up for a few key losses that need to be filled. Making a two RB tandem work. We have by far the best two running backs in the ACC not to mention nationally. KJ and Lee Suggs didn't work as well as it should have. How we allow Williams and Evans to compliment each other and work together is key. QB situation has to be solid. Tyrod should have his best year and him staying healthy will be key. I really hope our backup situation will be solid enough to step up when or if he gets hurt. Finally beating Boise State at FedEx field will be huge. That to me is the turning point in the season.

Where we could slip up: Key injuries in the Spring, this always happens we just need to get all of our key players through the spring and have them healthy for the regular season. Our Offense. As long as we don't change our coaching on offense we are doomed. Our offensive coordinator will always keep us down and until we change that we will not get over the hump. The only way to overcome this is by having Tyrod make plays to compensate for our lack of play calling. Finally not playing well at UNC. We never play well down there, this year we need to smash them in the face and beat them the old fashioned way, running the football down their throat.

So that's my (very)brief thoughts on this early 2010 year. Maybe you'll hear more from me on Twitter, LOL
