Scot Loeffler
Caveat: This is an HD post, hence her referring to us as a "disgruntled fan base"...
First-year Virginia Tech offensive coordinator Scot Loeffler is in a tough spot. He’s got one of the ACC’s most disgruntled fan bases tracking his progress every step of the way. The debut of his offense in the spring game wasn’t exactly an instant classic, but it also wasn’t an accurate reflection of the progress made throughout the entire spring.

We know his OC experience is limited. We know he had success at Temple, and a bust at Auburn. We also know he is skilled at coaching QBs. If you read the complaints of Auburn fans, their opinions on Loeffler are eerily similar to ours of Stiney. However, is it Scot, or Chizik trying to get his greasy fingers into the offense. How do yall see the Hokie offense changing during Loeffler's first year?

As first reported by CBSSports' Bruce Feldman, Scot Loeffler has accepted an offer to become offensive coordinator at Virginia Tech.
David Teel reported last Friday (January 11th) that Loeffler was a candidate. On Monday, Mark Giannotto reported Loeffler and former Auburn offensive line coach Jeff Grimes were in Blacksburg meeting with Frank Beamer.
Last season Loeffler began as offensive coordinator at Auburn, and ended up going down with Chizik's sinking ship. The Tigers were ranked 115th nationally in total offense (305.00 yards per game), and 112th in scoring offense (18.67 points per game). These complaints by Auburn fans seem eerily familiar.
