HOT SPRINGS, Va. (AP) - Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer followed the lead of a couple of Hokies players by leaving his Atlantic Coast Conference championship ring at home during the league's annual media kickoff.
Defensive end Darryl Tapp and tight end Jeff King also put away the gaudy jewelry in their sessions with reporters a day earlier, and the message from all was clear. Last year's title was great, but this is 2005.
"In this business, it's year-to-year, and we're trying to get ready for this year," Beamer said Monday. "I'm awfully proud of what we did last year, but it's time to get another ring."
