I’ve said ever since the VT job opened and Franklin was fired that that would be the best marriage/outcome for both parties. It’s a mid-tier P5 program where 8-9 wins is the expectation, that’s pretty much Franklin’s ceiling.

But with Clemson flailing and Miami back its about to be a VT v Miami show in the ACC like the Vick years. This was a homerun for VT.

Edit: Vick played when VT was in the Big East. Point still stands.

There’s a lot of problems on D. DTs are ineffective, ends haven’t really been disruptive against good teams, LBs are out of position a lot, safeties are terrible at everything. We need way better talent on that side.

I believe that having dominant DTs is the most essential element to having a good defense. Forces teams to max protect, edge players get more 1v1 blocks. In the run game having dudes that dont get moved help make the lbs look better by narrowing gaps. It's this year they are getting moved and opening up bigger creases.

I think he’s trying to keep his team focused and make a run in the playoffs.

A couple years ago they were having a good year And when the coaching rumor mill started up he did exactly as you would expect and let rumors run wild and soaked up all the attention he could and it became a distraction and he team seemed to hit a wall.
I think that’s why he’s only been saying how much he loves ole miss and not acting like he might leave.

Any of you know anything about Granny Magic? I was poking around the other day and found this tradition that came over with the earliest Scottish settlers of the Appalachians. These women used the Bible as a spell book... allegedly! I thought someone might know something more personal about it here.

Im thinking if we can be successful with the Juco, and close another DL. With what we have on campus, and a successful porthaul we should be much improved. Defense is slow.

We need some beef at DT imo

clone John Henderson and Albert Haynesworth in the offseason. A motivated Albert...

Everyone melting down about players packing it in and not playing anymore and portaling once out of CFP, Now schools telling coaches to hit the road even when they are still running for a CFP spot just cause they wont sign a contract extension for 4 years from now. This is better than a comedy show.
