If you’ve jumped to “Enter Sandman” under the lights at Lane Stadium or shouted “Let’s Go!” from your living room, you know what Hokie football feels like — electric, emotional and unmistakably ours.
This fall, The Roanoker is celebrating everything Virginia Tech with a digital hub built for fans, alumni, students and newcomers alike — a full-access pass to the people, places and moments that define Hokie Nation.
At TheRoanoker.com/VT, you’ll find:
- Roland Lazenby’s exclusive feature on Coach Brent Pry and college football in the NIL era
- A special Boundary Corner podcast interview with Lazenby on VT football, sports journalism and legacy (airing August 28)
- The full transcript from Coach Pry’s sit-down with Lazenby
- An exclusive From Print to Podcast episode featuring a conversation with Lazenby and your friendly neighborhood editor
- A list of game day traditions — from that iconic lunch pail to third-down key shakes (did we miss any? Let us know!)
- Tailgate-ready recipes from Southern Spoonful
- Stories by and about Lazenby, his early years in Roanoke and rise to international acclaim
- Archived coverage of Hokie sports and local athletic legends from The Roanoker archives — you remember Coach Frank Beamer, right?
