'Coach Seth Greenberg has done something this season that he's never done before. He's called in a motivational speaker.

Chris Neck is the secret weapon. He is a management professor at Virginia Tech. When he's not in the classroom, you can find him in the locker room. He's talked to the team a total of eight times throughout the season.

During his pep talks, Neck emphasizes communication, leadership, and team work. It's a lesson Coach Greenberg hopes his players will use on and off the court. To deliver that message, Neck uses laughter, real life lessons, videos, and rap songs.

Tonight's message focused on the here and now. He told the team not to think about the NCAA tournament, rather Sunday's game against NC State.'
