You know, I seriously thought of something like this too. And it would not be bad if the contract is structured right. If the people who steal Franklin from us have to pay a big buyout to use, we then have a good war chest for the future just from a few months renting Franklin. Of course, VT has to write the contract properly - what are the odds of that - and Franklin has to accept it.

# | The Argument for James Franklin to be the next VT Football Coach You are not alone there, my friend.
The orange lettering also leans more into a Halloween vibe which works for just this upcoming weekend. I agree the white script would look better generally.
Wonder if we could hire Pry back as DC and get back some of that buyout money, assuming Franklin would want him and players would still be willing to play for him. Just because he wasn't a good HC doesn't mean he wouldn't be a good coordinator again. Also assuming Pry can swallow his pride. With all that said, probably too much to overcome to actually happen.

# | The Argument for James Franklin to be the next VT Football Coach I could see them as friends
DUKE at CLEMSON (Clem -3.5)
9 VANDERBILT at 20 TEXAS (Tx -3.5)
5 GEORGIA at FLORIDA (Ga -7.5)
8 GAH TECH at NC STATE (Gah -6.5)
18 OKLAHOMA at 14 TENNESSEE (Tn -3.5)
17 CINCINNATI at 24 UTAH (Ut -7.5)
I don't like how many away teams I picked.
I think this is why it has been radio silence from Tech and any applicant. Everything here is based off of rumor and hearsay.
I think they're in the same ballpark. I could see them as friends.
Well, I suppose we'll see if Virginia Tech agrees with that assessment.
I guess I am the odd person, I always thought Courtney Cox was hotter than Jennifer on Friends.
She's in every 6 beer discussion a group of people have. Those are some amazingly assembled and durable genetics. Like a Ford 300 6 cylinder.
Which, again, was we have money to spend on football
But they don't... the $14m they were allegedly spending on "NIL" included scholarships and was only like $4m in collective money.
If she were as crazy as she is hot, you'd absolutely know all about it.
Nice helmet design.
Absolutely terrific "blair witch" style announcement for Halloween week.
I like it.
I like this pick, but I'd have much preferred to just hear the announcement that it's a done deal, and that everyone is committed.
VT doesn't have as good a record as I'd like with "almost" deals.
late stages of the Beamer era
also known as The Manny Diaz
serious upgrade for us over Fuente and Pry
and the late stages of the Beamer era
I don't know what kind of lighting they have in the tunnel, but it makes the helmet look a terrible shade of marron at the 51 second mark, and completely different than the out in the open shots.
Script is ok (I can generally take them or leave them), but I can's stop staring at the gash in the maroon paint below the O in Hokies.
Totally agree; UVA is 7-1 and draws the same or sometimes less fans than a 3-5 Hokie team

Fully prepared to be screwed by the Tennessee teams again-with my luck the NC teams will join them in ruining my picks....
Meh. My comparison was less about the likelihood of success and more about the message UNC was trying to send. Which, again, was we have money to spend on football and we'll take big swings.
I agree with this take. Buzz took over a distressed asset and turned it around in 3 years. The similarities between James Johnson and Brent Pry are there as well.
HARD NO. too awkward, too much baggage. Let Pry get a DC job somewhere else and enjoy his buyout
