It's a Cinderella story--the downtrodden independent program that the University of Alabama stomped 77-6 in 1973--went undefeated in 1999, landing a spot in the national title game. Who knows when--or if--that will ever happen again? Relive the glory of that season in Book Seven of the acclaimed series, GO TECH GO: The Inside Story Behind the Rise of Virginia Tech Football. Written in easy-to-read anecdotal style, author Chris Colston takes you back through that golden undefeated regular season, led by magical quarterback Michael Vick. Colston worked in the Virginia Tech Athletics Department from 1985-96 as editor of The Hokie Huddler, and went on to cover the MLB, NFL, and NBA as an award-winning reporter for Sports Weekly and USA TODAY. "Why should you care what Chris Colston thinks? Because outside that locker room, there might not be anybody who knows that team better," wrote the Roanoke Times. "Colston isn't just a Tech graduate; he's a Tech expert, a Tech historian. A Tech lifer." Colston offers a unique perspective on how Virginia Tech rose to national prominence, building an intense fan base along the way.
