Lived on Sherborn from 1967-1979 (was at VT from 75-79). Cardinal Forest to Washington Irving to WSHS.

It was actually a brand-new development when we first moved there. Forrester didn't even connect to Carleigh Pkway in those early days. It was all woods right after Cardinal Forest.

Personally I like the idea of punting after 4 downs. /s

This is where my head is at right now. I think some of the VT insiders are running a smokescreen for the staff right now on the DC hire. Almost no one who is still coaching makes sense other than Dex. Maybe Banks from Tennessee but they have been done for weeks now. I also think he is going to be out of our price range anyhow.

Realistically, no current sole DC for any playoff team is leaving and making a less than lateral move from a playoff team to VT right now. Dex has the connection to Pry, and there's the logical sense of it being a promotion for him that would allow us to hire him and PSU not to be able to match. I don't put stock in it being any NFL coordinators either, and definitely not Sorensen. I also don't think we would be signing all these impact defensive recruits without them having some idea who our DC is/the hire basically being a done deal. And Dex coincidentally enough was the lead recruiter at PSU for a lot of these guys and has a relationship with them already. I think it's just getting very obvious who it is, but PSU is still in the hunt and Franklin has probably demanded that Pry/VT keep this quiet until they are out (which frankly is a bit ridiculous, but he and Pry are buddies). So now the VT media that has connections to the staff are having to awkwardly throw out misdirection to try and make it seem less obvious. Could be wrong but that's just my take on it.

Yea, I think that was one of the reason Tennessee fans were so excited about the hire - because Lane was bringing his dad with him.
