*insert cliche "IS JACK TYLER TURNING HIS BACK AGAINST HIS FORMER TEAM TO A TEAM THAT ONCE BEAT THEM?" message board guy joke*

Nah forreal tho, good for him. My dad went to JMU, but he cheers for the Hokies 10x more than he ever has for the Dukes. I see no reason why Jack Tyler can't do the same!

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. (added only because you requested it)

awesome, can't wait to see Beamer give him a hug after we beat them.

long range planning though, Jack to be defensive position coach at VT in a decade. Calling it now.

Don't think it will be that long!

He plays the same position that Foster currently coaches. But I think he'd be a welcome addition to HC Foster's staff.

No, I *don't* want to go to the SEC. Why do you ask?

Yep, just gettin his foot in the door. At some point in time he might be making his way to Blackburg. By then he'll have some experience under his belt.

Already a better coach than Newsome.

A decade on TKP and it's been time well spent.

When Bud moves to HC hire Tyler to be LB's Coach...done and done.

That's terrific! How come they haven't agreed to play us again btw?

Because they know..........

Because FCS schools scheduling FBS schools doesnt work that way. We wouldve needed to call them first, and seeing as the schedule is full for the next decade I dont think we have.

Has anyone seen what type of coaching position it is? I can make assumptions left, right, and center but I'd rather not

Can't wait for him to be the next great VT produced coach. Just learned today that Todd Grantham played and coached for the Hokies as an assistant under Beamer and Foster. #beamercoachingtree

Per Mike Barber (retweeted by Bitter) on Twitter, this is a false rumor. He's only being considered for an internship...
