Daily Devotions for Die-Hard Fans: Virginia Tech Hokies combines the great passion of the Hokies fan with the great passion of the fan of Christ into one set of devotions, one book that is fun while providing a time of reflection about God and your faith. A broken foot allowed Carlos Dixon to achieve the biggest dream of his life: playing basketball in the ACC. Legendary Tech center Jake Grove once got locked out of Lane Stadium -- during a game. The most decorated athlete in Tech sports history had to make a choice: his sport or the violin. The Hokie softball team once pulled off perhaps the most incredible feat in the history of amateur softball. The football players decided it was a good night to turn their dorm hall into a water slide and not get into trouble. Wrong! These stories and more are recounted here. Also appearing are Frank Beamer, Ace Custis, Michael Vick, Amy Wetzel, Tyrod Taylor, and many others. Their stories along with legendary games, improbable victories, and historical events are told with a twist: They are all tied to God's story. Have fun! Have faith! Go Hokies! Go God!
