Why are you referencing a VT team from ten years ago? I'm talking about the team now, not making a sweeping generalization about VT's history.

And the Coastal is consistently rated as one of the worst in college football.

Last year the Coastal was 4-8 against other Power 5 opponents and 0-3 against Notre Dame. And the wins were against Illinois, Purdue, Nebraska, and Indiana. Not exactly a lot of good wins there.

It is just not a good division comparatively.

But my point was using last year to predict next year. And OSU finished the year a much better team than VT. I would still give us like a 10% chance of beating OSU if we played this season. Worse than Tenn though.

In-state recruiting is still very much a thing. Our top prospect, Slade, is an in-state guy off the top of my head.

Specifically for Franklin, it looks like we cooled on him right when Penn State started really liking him. I think him going there is best for everyone.

But yes, geography is less important now than ever, no doubt about that.

If by easiest division you mean we don't have to beat a likely playoff team, that includes half the divisions in the B5. If by loaded with cupcakes, you are mistaken. Stack us up 1-7 with other divisions and start picking winners. I do not consider Bama getting blown out, even though we were blown out in special teams. Losing the revenge part of the LSU home-away was a blow-out. We have shown we can punch with the big boys, but have lost a few more than we've won. We have a real chance against anybody, but need a couple breaks to make it happen. We got them vs OSU first time, they got them the second, like Bama got them on special teams.

They'll need to have strong hands to pull. The flags.

Pretty soon we'll be trying to recruit 6-6 325 LB 5* Defensive Touches. /s

Nah, that's Loeffler talk. Good OCs don't need that much time. We will be in the top half of ACC offenses this year with an outside shot at being 4th behind UNC/Clem/FSU.
