Jaylin Lane just had a huge catch for 37 yards to set Commanders up with 1st and Goal
Too bad the rest of the Commanders offense couldn't hold on to the ball

I never could figure out the 311 reference. I spent time out of the country for nearly the whole of the late 80's and so missed a bunch of cultural stuff then.
I'm with you here. I think it's much to do about nothing
everybody except the custodians
LOL. The custodians are the first that need to go. Why? Because they know everybody in the building, Talk to everybody in the building. And most importantly, go through everybody in the buildings trash! The custodians know it all!!! /s

# | Bitter: Expect no further updates on coaching search - NDAs have been signed meh... we all wanna hear the sweet juicy details but if I am sands and I have a committee member and an AD putting out conflicting messages then I would want to silence the noise as well. Doesn't mean its gone to hell.
I do agree Whit should have gone with Pry but he is here and perhaps Sands gave him an out. He wants this process to go as he wants and Whit makes the hire then retire. I could see that.
Then conflicting messaging got out and Sands wants that controlled. NDA. There must have been a clear plan attached to the money the BOV approved. I can't see it without a designed exit for Whit.
(edited to fix stooopid vocabulary mistakes. doh!)
With some help, I might be able to pony up for the Klondike bar. What flavor... Original, Reese's, Mint Chocolate Chip, Cookies & Creme, Heath, Krunch, Double Chocolate, Orange Creamsicle, Caramel Pretzel, Dark Chocolate, Rocky Road, or No Sugar Added? Dang... so many choices! It's like a coaching search; with so many choices you end up not making one. And if you do make one, you'll end up regretting it!
I understood why Nebraska fired Frank Solich, I didn't understand stand why they hired Bill Calahan. I understand why Nebraska fired Pelini, I didn't understand why they hired the Oregon state coach. I understand why PSU fired Franklin. He proved he couldn't do it. Now they are going to the unproven, but lots of coaches were unproven until they weren't. They need to hire some one that is a splash and not just some random NFL guy that sucked in the NFL
EDIT: lots of people are saying Matt Rhule is the target. You don't fired James Franklin to hire Matt Rhule. He's even worse at winning big games.
Who knew a 5'-11" 160 lb 50+ year old could be the 32nd best QB in the league this week! J-E-T-S, JETS! JETS! JETS!
I used to work with Orem Burks's dad, and met the guy, both seemed to be ok with Franklin. Granted, he o ly went to go play school. Making it to thw nfl was just icing on the cake.

# | Bitter: Expect no further updates on coaching search - NDAs have been signed In a different post, I stated how much of a gut feel I had about Huff being a top target.
I also have a huge gut feel in the opposite direction with Shane. For yet another unexplained gut feel, I think Shane would be a disaster. He should not be involved with VT Football at all at this present juncture.
And I love Bud. I have had the opportunity to have a few conversations with him over the years and I really like him, but if the Shane rumblings are true, I would be disappointed.

# | Bitter: Expect no further updates on coaching search - NDAs have been signed Eff it, i'm in for 2mil/year and a Klondike bar...
I think he acts an ass far too much for me to want him (at least yet), and I dont think he'll be hired, but i also think his odds are increasing as the weeks pass, and scar keeps losing. starting to think Clemson might be their only win left.
Franklin's inability to win the big games might be explained by having to deal with a lot tougher gauntlet of a schedule. He won't have that week in and week out grueling type of schedule here at VT. Getting to the ACCCG will be easier; winning it will be biggest test of season and that's an auto birth to the CFP - someplace we haven't even been since there's been a playoff.
As much as i despise the guy, he's the number one person we should be pursuing. He can do it here, i feel it.
I dont for half a millisecond believe that
you must not have ever ever come into contact with tinnersee twitter
I'll also mention that I think Andrea Adelson tweeted something and Andy Bitter may have mentioned it to, as to the legality of a public school having an NDA. Specific personnel matters (hiring, interviewing of candidates, promotion/demotion, discipline, termination, etc.) are one of several exemption areas under the Virginia FOIA legislation. It's how governing boards can convene in closed session when negotiations are ongoing and such in certain matters, or if they are receiving legal advice, etc. So totally permissible for an NDA, since it just helps to reinforce this specific allowable exemption and helps keep people quiet when appropriate.

So we're keeping up with PSU
I see John Ballein back in his office, fist-pumping and yelling "Yep, I still got it" over and over.
Find the exact opposite of what we should have done and this is it.
We're fucked. $50 mil about to get flushed down the toilet

# | Bitter: Expect no further updates on coaching search - NDAs have been signed Yeah this gets back to why I had such a problem with it being almost exclusively former Hokies rather than someone who knows what the top programs look like from top to bottom that can critique what each coach has to say. Too much old Merryman ties to give us best in football rather than most comfortable for them to visit.
Had read the same. Bud and Eddie pushing heavily for Shane. And sounds like Arians is just pushing for exclusively NFL guys with no real thought on college fit. Just don't like that at all. This should have been a 3-5 person MAX committee, and at least 1-2 should have had experience with hiring coaches/coaching searches. If you don't want Whit conducting the search, fire him and hire a consultant to handle agents and discussions. This is so seriously bush league at this point it isn't funny.
Pshaw! HEATH is the best!
