Teel Time with David Teel

On the 59th episode of the Teel Time podcast, Jonathan Heeter and David Teel chat about a wild weekend in college football. It wasn't a great week to be a ranked team, with eight of the top 25 losing, including four of the top 10. One of those upsets came in Charlottesville, with Bronco Mendenhall authoring his biggest upset as coach at Virginia with a win over a ranked Miami team, pushing to the Cavaliers to the top half of the Coastal Division. The team leading the Coastal is Virginia Tech, which escaped its own upset loss on the road in North Carolina. Teel also talks about Virginia Tech's media day for basketball and previews the upcoming ACC basketball media day. Music: Slow Burn by Kevin MacLeod.

On episode 57 of the Teel Time podcast, David Teel and Jonathan Heeter talk about Virginia Tech's bounceback win over Duke. Reeling from a loss to Old Dominion and an injury to their starting quarterback, the Hokies earned a decisive road win over the previously undefeated Blue Devils. Virginia, however, lost its momentum coming off a win over Louisville by losing on the road at N.C. State. We talk about some of the other big games across the country, and we wrap up with some conversation about the U.S. defeat at the Ryder Cup. Music: Slow Burn by Kevin MacLeod.

On episode 56 of the Teel Time podcast, David Teel and Jonathan Heeter chat about Old Dominion's jaw-dropping upset over Virginia Tech. The Monarchs' win over the Hokies may have changed the calculus for both schools this season. ODU started the season 0-3, but does this change the Monarchs' fortunes for the rest of the season? The Hokies, meanwhile, suffered one of their biggest upsets in school history. In the aftermath, Virginia Tech dismissed its top pass rusher Trevon Hill and found out quarterback Josh Jackson would be out for the foreseeable future with an injured leg. Teel projects how the personnel developments will affect the Hokies going forward, beginning with this week's important league game against undefeated Duke. Virginia is coming off an impressive and dominant win over Louisville. The Cavaliers face their own stiff road test this week at N.C. State. The guys close the show chatting about Tiger Woods' win at the Tour Championship and the upcoming Ryder Cup. Music: Slow Burn by Kevin MacLeod.

On Episode 55 of Teel Time with David Teel, Teel and Jonathan Heeter chat about Virginia Tech and Virginia a quarter of the way through the 2018 season. Teel talks about what has impressed him so far with the play of the Hokies and Cavaliers, and he talks about the challenges each will face coming up. Virginia should receive that test this week against Louisville, while the Hokies will play undefeated Duke next week. Teel also discusses the Hokies' trip to the 757 this weekend to take on Old Dominion in the highest profile game since ODU launched football. Music: Slow Burn by Kevin MacLeod.

On Episode 54 of the Teel Time podcast, Teel and colleague Dave Johnson talk about the approaching Hurricane Florence and how the storm could affect football this weekend. The guys chat about Virginia Tech's dominant performance against William and Mary. Old Dominion got off to a rough start on the season with losses to Liberty and Florida International with Virginia Tech looming in a couple of weeks. And the Davids roll through the ACC schedule, looking back a week and ahead to the next week. Music: Slow Burn by Kevin MacLeod.

On Episode 53 of the Teel Time podcast, David Teel and Norm Wood discuss Virginia Tech's emphatic win over Florida State on a late-night drive back to their hotel in Lake City, Fla. The guys break down the game and how Hokies' defensive coordinator Bud Foster solved the Seminoles offense with an inexperienced defense. They also discuss Virginia's dominant win over Richmond and the emergence of quarterback Bryce Perkins. Teel and Wood chat about week one of the ACC season, and they look forward to the second week of action. Music: Slow Burn by Kevin MacLeod.

On Episode 52 of Teel Time with David Teel, Jonathan Heeter and Teel talk about the opening week of the college football season.

On Episode 51 of Teel Time, David Teel and Jonathan Heeter talk about the fallout of the death of Maryland football player Jordan McNair. Teel talks about how the FBS schools in Virginia are guarding against heat-related illness. We also talk about preparation for the college football season, which is now just two weeks away.

On the 50th episode of Teel Time, David Teel and Jonathan Heeter chat about the new landscape for college basketball after the NCAA handed down some rule changes. The new rules regarding NBA Draft eligibility and player-agent interactions have drawn most of the attention, but Teel believes the penalties for rules violations deserves discussion. We talk about the recent turmoil at Maryland following the death of offensive lineman Jordan McNair, who died in June following a team workout. As the season draws closer, how have Virginia and Virginia Tech fared in fall practice, and have the storylines changed since the start of practice? And we wrap up with golf talk and the PGA Championship. Tiger Woods' performance and Brooks Koepka's win at Bellerive made for quite the story. Koepka now has three majors since June 2017. Teel asks who's more likely to win a major in 2019: Woods or Koepka. Music: Slow Burn by Kevin MacLeod.

The 49th episode of the Teel Time podcast is a reunion as around 100 years of Daily Press experience come together to talk about the retirement announcement of William and Mary football coach Jimmye Laycock. David Teel, who has covered Laycock as a columnist for a few decades, is joined by longtime Daily Press sportswriter Dave Johnson, who currently covers the Tribe, and another longtime Daily Press sportswriter Dave Fairbank, who covered W&M and other local colleges when he retired in 2015. The three Daves talk about Laycock's 38 years at W&M and put in perspective a career that included either coaching or coaching with three current NFL head coaches - Mike Tomlin (Pittsburgh Steelers), Sean McDermott (Buffalo Bills) and Dan Quinn (Atlanta Falcons) - and former college coaches Frank Beamer, Bobby Ross, Bill Stewart and Ralph Friedgen.
