How about Anthony Midget? Texans assistant with Florida ties.
Yeah I can't see Terrell staying. Hopefully that doesn't mean Tremaine leaves too but I would say so
Can anyone think of any possible replacements? So far all I got is Nick Sorenson, and he's probably out of our price range.
While wrestling is not something I did in HS, or have any real history with, I fully appreciate your passion and your posts to educate ignorant fools like me. Keep doin' what you're doin'.
Possible replacements could be IMO:
1. Anthony Midget (obviously former VT DB who is currently an assistant with the Texans, would clearly have an understanding of Bud's defense)
2. Trooper Taylor (played DB at Baylor in the late 80's, early 90's, has coached at Tennessee and Auburn, known as an ace recruiter.)
3. Chip West (probably not a popular choice, but he is good at recruiting the 757.)
Unless Whit is really able to pony up we won't hire someone with TG's resume.
Just lost a ton of respect for Coach Fuente and the program. Keeping a coach until all the NLI's are in and then bailing is one of the worst things that happens in college football. If any of the recruits want to be released, Tech better honor it.
Maybe now VT will finally get someone who will satisfy the message board experts and teach DBs to properly defend the pass...
Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Maybe we found a spot for Scott?
Is it possible that Fuente and Co knew about this move and we have somebody already lined up to take his spot?
Well that seems most likely. Gonna/gotta pull from G5 or a really bad P5 team.
I'm not jersey but next year will most likely be a peak year. We only lose one senior, granted a very good one, and we have a large and good junior class this year. It's hard to project much farther than that.
Holy shit
Well yeah, in that one sense, but it's still underhanded. It sucks that coaches can come and go as they please, but now all those kids that signed their NLI today to play for DBU and VT's (traditionally) vaunted defense are locked in. Now, that's good for us in terms of available talent, but how do those kids feel right now? Are they going to come into a toxic environment, or create one? Lots left to play out, and much of it depends on who we hire and how they integrate into the staff and relate to the players. Huge number of variables.
I don't know if that's the best thing or the shadiest thing. I mean.....what is going on?
Anthony Midget to replace him???
We did, but it was still a huge pay raise for Zohn relative to what he made at ODU, so we could pull that off. To replace someone of Torrian's caliber, this late in the game, is going to hurt.
Best for the program that he announced once signing day was completed.
It has been a terrible 7 days or so
Yes, this is true. But I think we paid less for Burden? I could be wrong but it doesn't really matter.
Yeah this news trumps anything we've been hemming and hawing about today. Jesus, the timing. And I was just starting to feel better.
But never mind that now. Because this is awful.
Not sure how this has any correlation to Fuente..
