Wow. Well no chance of two ACC teams in the playoff now. Way to go Clemson and Miami sucking!

ACC just went from possibly three CFP teams to one.

Were things rigged by the ACC for SMU v Clemson?

Miami just handed the win to the Orange

Up 21 in second half, where have we seen that before?

Glad to be wrong. Great catch by Rogers for NCST

I wholeheartedly agree with those two positions being the biggest needs, although DC would likely mean staff changes under the new DC as well. Jones had a few NFL draftees he coached at Duke, so if you can get guys drafted consistently from a school like Duke, would think he knows what he's doing. Just checked the ACC page for stats and we're #6 in passing defense and #13 in rushing defense.

Still should have been a handball even if it's not a card.

Fuente had a disastrous recruiting and roster management system, but Pry is just a flat out bad coach. I've seen enough now and he cannot manage a game or hire a staff capable of competing at a high level. We are scoring more points than we ever have - wow, everyone is scoring more points. And VT historically has had bad offense, so anything is a step in the right direction there.

We need to stop mirroring everything here to the Beamer era. Frank Beamer is not walking through that door. Given the competitive nature of college football today, you are given 3-4 years max and then most programs cut bait and move on. We don't have an eternity to wait around for Pry to work out because he talks with a SWVA accent and makes us feel nostalgic. All of that is window dressing - he has failed miserably on the field, and there are no indications of him improving there. We hired a lifelong coordinator who had no interest from anywhere as an HC except here due to connections. Let's level set here a bit. Yes, we have hired more support staff. But we are just scratching the surface on where we need to be to play big boy football on Saturday.

Eh, I'm not buying that. The one that would have run us totally in the ground is Fuente if we'd kept him. Pry has done some things that have turned the program around. We have a better support staff and recruiting has gotten better (Fuente got some good players to commit, but a lot of the better ones flipped, at least Pry is keeping most of the players he gets to commit).

Our offense has been scoring more points year over year, and by a decent margin. Yeah, we're not winning the within one-score games, but we also have fewer games that were losses by more than one score, so we're not getting beat as bad as we were last year. Pry also beats the teams he's supposed to beat (remember some of those head scratcher losses to G5 opponents under Fuente?).

This year we've also had Drones AND Tuten AND Schlee banged up. Yeah, the season is disappointing, but it's not a catastrophe like FSU is having, especially after their 13-1 season just last year.

It took Beamer how many years before he won at Tech? And yeah, I know we had sanctions, but Pry is coming in with a roster with 10 scholarship running backs, what felt like 20 scholarship receivers, and whatever else we had (I believe a lot of players that left the program that Fuente recruited went to G5 or FCS programs, and even then barely contributed). And we didn't have any meaningful recruiting relationships from everything we've heard, Pry and his staff had to go build them. So I wonder which is actually worse, the sanctions or what Fuente left us with.

42-35 Cuse now. So much time left though.

Fun fact, it's outside of an hour so any punches thrown don't get you in trouble.

nah, forecast is pretty clear going forward
