Gas Station Snacks

[CuseJacket]

Dedicated article from Ken Sugiura and worth a dedicated thread

This season, the Jackets have done their part to fuel local economies through road conquests. Tech is 5-6 record in opponent arenas, including 4-4 in league play. It’s the most league road wins since the 2007-08 team went 4-4.

The only Tech team to win more than four ACC road games was the 1995-96 Jackets, who were 5-3 in winning the ACC regular-season title.

While players, coaches, managers and staff – perhaps a total of 30 – checked out, Pastner stood by the cashier with strength and conditioning coach Dan Taylor, observing the purchases for NCAA rules compliance. Per the NCAA rule book, “an institution may provide snacks to a student-athlete at any time.” No financial limit is stipulated. Pastner was making sure that only food items were being purchased.

“No motor oil,” Pastner said. “No toothbrushes, no deodorants.”

Interesting that they can get only what they can carry. And the 777.77 is strange.

I'm surprised they didn't get gas station burritos or hamburgers

The road wins are another thing I don’t get. A team with this record should not be 4-4 on the road.

Are you questioning why they're overachieving on the road?

I am glad it was 777 and not 666.

Yeah.
