Eddie Royal is joining the ACC Network as an Analyst. Can't wait to see him on there. Sounds like he has been working hard at it the past few years, and is now getting his opportunity. Although I generally think MacLain and EJ Manuel are pretty good, I am glad there will be a Hokie on the ACC Network now.

I would much prefer him on some of the talk shows cause I'm sick of only listening to Clemson, Miami, and UNC guys on there

I like EJ Manuel but MacLain annoys me

McClain also loves Vice Squad, and rightfully so

I feel confident he'll get as many as he wants needs...

I currently do not watch much of the All Clemson Content Network unless they are broadcasting a VT game, but this will likely get me to tune in more often depending on where he features.

I'm mildly upset about this cause Eddie Royal was a coaching intern with the Eagles this summer. He was getting a lot of buzz as someone who really helped Jalen Reagor, Quez Watkins, and DeVonta Smith develop. I was hoping former VT receivers coach Aaron Moorehead would find a way to keep him.

But... if that's not possible, then give me more Hokies in the media. I want more than just Hoda and Seth Greenberg.

You are assuming Royal wanted to continue coaching. This could have been his decision to explore another sports related career.

With the right personality and exposure, he might stick longer in media than coaching.

Yes, but I also (selfishly) want the Eagles to not suck. And the wide receiver position has been bad (putting it kindly) since the Super Bowl.
