| 8 months 2 weeks # | The Argument for James Franklin to be the next VT Football Coach

I won't give a name, but from my understanding, the committee has presented their options to the 3 making the call, so now people who weren't required to sign NDAs have access to the goings on.

But it's the same person who told me the Thursday of the ODU game that the decision that Pry wasn't going to last the weekend has been made.

I'm pretty sure it's "pitch a fit" and not "pinch a fit" but, of course, classic NC to get that wrong

source - I currently live in NC and they get LOTS of stuff wrong

I hope it does, though. So many high-level openings right now, that nabbing Franklin early seems like the best option to get a good coach.

Initially I was pretty strongly against a Franklin hire. At this point though, if we announced Franklin as HC sometime this week I'd be pretty content with that. With new openings every week (and it's not even November yet!!) the odds of VT doing well in the coaching circus drop even more so if we can lock down a solid coach early I think that's to VT's benefit. I probably won't be as excited for the actual football with Franklin as perhaps some other coaches but I'd feel comfortable enough trusting that he'd, at the very least, stop the backsliding and get us back to competing with ACC teams.

Or as my daughter learned in daycare here in NC, "You git what you git and you don't pinch a fit."
