Who are the greatest quarterbacks in the last 50 years of Virginia Tech football? In this episode, the Memory Lane crew breaks down the best Hokie QBs of the modern era and debate how they stack up against each other. 

Host Sam Jessee, and Memory Lane contributors Robert Irby and Brett Smith, are joined by Paul Petera, who recently published a four-part series ranking 50 years of Virginia Tech quarterbacks. Paul walks the guys through his criteria, the toughest decisions in building the list, and the quarterbacks who just missed the cut.

Ed Williams hops on with Pete and Sam to discuss what's going on with Mike Young's program, what to watch for the rest of this season, and where things are likely to go from here.

In this episode, Pete and Sam dive into Coach Franklin's 2026 recruiting efforts. There’s some nuances within the class rankings that the guys want to address before the page is turned to 2027. Is it fair to compare his first class to Brent Pry's 2022 class? The answer to that, and more in this one. Hokies Basketball talk towards the end. 

Pete and Sam are back! Coach Franklin held the introductory press conference for his coaching staff on Wednesday, leaving a ton for the guys to break down in this episode. This was the first time we heard from Brent Pry since he was announced as the DC - plenty of intrigue about his return, and how he his embracing his new role. Finally, the men's basketball team is back on the bubble. With 8 league games left, the Hokies have to find a way to steal one or two on the road if they want to play meaningful basketball in March.

The 2026 VT football schedule is here! In year one of the James Franklin era, the ACC served up a stinker. The away slate is brutal, 6 true road games, and the league has Tech traveling all over the country. The back half of the dance card has the Hokies playing 4 of the top 6 teams in the league from 2025. Those four don't even include the Clemson game - a trip to Death Valley looms large in late October. There are some potential top-25 challenges, but most, if not all, are projected to come away from Lane Stadium. Tap in to hear the gang's first reaction to the 2026 slate.

In the 3rd quarter of the Natty stream, Pete and Sam welcomed Brian Seigla from the Boundary Corner podcast and Robert Irby from the Sports Business Journal. The guys discussed just about everything that's gone down the past couple months - even a little CFP format talk. The 4th quarter got a bit more loose with Coach Holmes, but it was a blast!

BRM and Sam were joined by former Virginia Tech WR CJ Carroll and former Navy Midshipmen (and Billy Ray's brother) Jackson Lee Mitchell for the 2nd quarter of our National Championship stream. The guys covered just about everything in this free-flowing conversation.

In the first quarter of our National Championship stream, Pete, Sam, and Dan (from Tales of the Terrordome) were joined by Virginia Tech legend Sergio Render. The former Hokie O-lineman was a pleasure, talking everything from hunting, to coaching, to how he values his time as a father.

Pete and Sam recap the Semifinal Bowls before talking Hokies and previewing the Natty.

Sam Jessee joins Ed and Pete to talk about the last couple men's basketball games. It seems as if every ACC game is going to come down to the wire for the Hokies this season.
