“Want a front-row seat to Virginia Tech’s rise as a college football power? Chris Colston takes you there, with vivid, behind-the-scenes stories and anecdotes about the Hokies’ decades-long evolution. There isn’t a more definitive and comprehensive history of Virginia Tech’s transformation from football nomad to national title contender under Frank Beamer than this.”

Hall of Fame broadcaster Bill Roth:
“Riveting stuff. Reads like a well-written novel. Essential for all Hokies, old and new.”
 
Hall of Fame sportswriter David Teel:
“The Inside Story Behind the Rise of Virginia Tech Football is not a misnomer. Chris attended Tech, cheered for Tech, absorbed Tech’s history, worked at Tech, and most essential, earned the trust of those who authored the program’s ascension, including Frank Beamer.”
