# | Pry Fallout - Prepare to get Portaled hard in the next couple weeks We are about to see how much of this team is just NIL mercenaries. Many of them did not improve their worth over the first 3 games.
If only DC had lived to see it.......so sad.

# | Pry Fallout - Prepare to get Portaled hard in the next couple weeks The NCAA is about to look absolutely negligent for allowing this portal window during the season. I guess the only good thing is now our players and coaches are basically trying out for the rest of college football, maybe we will see some effort. I hope the NIL money wasn't front loaded.
That'd be somethin'

# | Pry Fallout - Prepare to get Portaled hard in the next couple weeks Phillip Montgomery first presser:
"We would like to announce open tryouts will be held on Wednesday to ensure we have enough bodies to meet the minimum requirements of our television schedule. Experience NOT required."
He rubber-stamped the extension of the contract because Weaver negotiated it but never signed it before walking away
Thats a huge oversight by whoever came up with the portal rules. Like, it sucks for the kids if their coach gets fired but they should be committed to the program, not the coach. Also, if you don't want your coach fired, maybe play a little harder
This process will take most of the season and maybe the entire season. We have an Interim HC, and nothings happening until Whit is gone and he's replaced.
No one will take an AD job if they don't get to participate in the hiring process.
Me too. I thought that ODU game finally cracked Joe and he unplugged the server for the night haha. Just gave it "fuck it, we'll start over in the morning."
So this either means they are interested in VT or getting their names out to signal that they're ready to jump somewhere/anywhere
Or they are angling for a raise
updated: Especially considering what motivation can we offer him...if he doesn't get a top SEC offer, why would he walk away? He is making close to $3M this season at USF thanks in large part to a clause inserted in his contract that gives him a $1M+ raise if USF joins a power 5 conference.
It's interesting to see which names are thrown out. At this point it's a combination of journalists listing coaches that feel right to them and adding names that agents mention to them. The agents will say stuff mostly to get their clients a gig somewhere. So this either means they are interested in VT or getting their names out to signal that they're ready to jump somewhere/anywhere.
That list is underwhelming considering we all know Golish is option 1 everywhere right now.
😂😂 Get Ms. Terry on the phone, stat!
Can we get a super bowl winning coach to chair this committee?
I think first you'd have to get him to actually take the phone call 😅
I picked him up. I think he'll work is way into a RB1b situation by the middle of the season. Etienne never impressed me in the NFL.
According to Fu, questioning QB-Xtreme's OC ability was ludicrous crap
Trevor really talked him up during the post game presser. Especially his ability to turn a 2 yard run with contact into a 5 yard run.
I think you might be mixing up your missouri-related coordinator interviewing history unless you come back with a source other than your own upthread comment
This is mostly /s but we at least make Saban say no, right?
Honestly a B is higher than I would've expected. Alex Kirshner said last night that Tech opening first could be interesting and I responded that I don't necessarily agree because of how we've fumbled the last two hires and how we've resorted to just being an entrance.
Maybe that can be a selling point, though. Give someone an opportunity to mold the program
They've moved Diablo into the box and he's really thriving in that role.
I really hope they hire a football GM. And then go for a head coach after that. I would prefer someone with previous head coaching experience. A coordinator from a blue blood might work OK too. Of that list I might would think Huff checks the box of having success as a head coach somewhere and spent some time at blue bloods. But also is sorta kinda from the franklin coaching tree? I dont think anyone from the military academy would work well here unless we give up and just run a triple option. Jason Candle maybe?
Also wouldn't have to go into portal this week. Would just have to not play if they are deciding. Team is going to have alot of hamstring issues in practice. Works even better for any that haven't played in a game or three so far. They could use the available games to make a decision.
