Well Pry also isn't doing bowl prep anymore so it very well could be a team in the CFP still but Pry now has more schedule flexibility to set up interviews.
For OL and LB I'm totally okay with that.
If it was someone interviewed this week and finished playing within the last week that narrows it down to an NFL guy not in the playoffs or the 2nd round CFB losers. I guess it's possible we'd wait for someone to get through their non-CFP bowl which opens it up a bit, but that seems unlikely.
Pitt and WVU are our farm teams now.
We didn't miss out on him, we let someone else develop him
That very well could be correct, but TSL is definitely a site that would act as a mouthpiece for the athletic department if asked and I could absolutely see a scenario where we are being asked to tamp down those rumors while PSU is in a title run out of respect for the new coach
I almost posted about Conner Moore, but couldn't confirm if he was actually Matt Moore's nephew. I would hope we have a shot there.
LB, an edge rusher, and more lineman are the top of my wish list. Safety seems to be shored up, but if we find another Canteen-esque CB-nickel type for depth I wouldn't be mad. I don't really care if we pick up another WR, I think we're fine there and having that room stacked didn't really help us this year.
Holy shit!
I don't know that anyone knows what VT is doing. All I do know is that Chris mentioned that Dex wasn't going to be the DC in a couple of his last articles. I listened to the TSL Podcast today and he said it again. He also said that iight still could be Dex and this was some kind of smoke and mirrors deal. Who knows.
I hope it is Dex but all this makes you wonder why would Chris mention that's its not going to be Dex in 2 articles and then again on the Pod.
Hmm... this math ain't mathin... to me anyway.
The belt should be a real thing in college football.
I didn't see it the first go around. It was around the holidays.
I don't know what the "college matrix" is, but Florida is the current holder of the College Football Belt (or the "Lineal National Championship").

And if you're curious, yes, we took the Belt from Georgia Tech in 2011, and held it for three title defenses, losing it to Clemson in the 2011 ACC Championship.
I had a different take. Pre game I was worried they would just run it down our throats and we would not be able to stop. A lot of their first half possessions struggles when they tried something else and lost yards or got no gain on first. When they stopped throwing and just ran over us to set up there second score, I thought "well, that was fun while it lasted." I thought their adjustment was to do what worked best and control the field possession, as our Offence was not much of a threat.
From a recent article:
https://www.knoxnews.com/story/sports/college/university-of-tennessee/fo...
Banks earned $1.5 million in 2024, which ranked 21st nationally in total pay among assistant coaches and 10th in the SEC.
I would be very surprised at that salary for a VT DC. I am not against the idea, just would be surprised.
I saw that also, but I think it was more along the lines that he "had heard" it wasn't going to be Dex. When it comes to hiring coaches, I put little faith into what people say and hear.
That taps the brakes for me on the Dex train. Considering how much smoke there has been around the possibility of Dex as the DC pick, why would Coleman put himself out there so confidently saying it is not Dex unless he had really good sources?
I don't really read any Chris Coleman stuff so I'll drop my confidence to 98%
Edit: I'm not a subscriber but looking at the free side of his article it specifically says that he won't mention names and Pry is conducting in person interviews this week?
Banks had just finished coaching at the time.
Also anyone in the NFL
Did Pry make a comment in a presser that they were pretty far along in hiring process but couldn't say anything because "he was still coaching? Or am I misremembering the quote? Which one of these dudes is still coaching other than Dex? Or was still coaching at the time of the quote?
Meh, JHam had significantly less experience than Grey does.
But, I agree that I much rather a proven DC over Torrian.
Acording to Chris Coleman's recent article on TSL, its definitely not Dex. He could be wrong, we will see.
Holy fucking shit, this is a legit pickup
I don't think anyone thinks he's going to come here. But he is one of the few people who is familiar with Pry's scheme.
You're such a tease...

If that's the case, and if he's from a team still playing (most likely), then we may have additional portal incomings like with Moore from WVU.
