I love the program, but if nothing ends up happening and it resulted in Dinnich getting canned, that would at least be a positive.
Then again, Weaver is known to surprise us all and make a coaching change at a completely random time that is detrimental to the program (see the firing of Seth Greenberg) so anything is possible unfortunately.
Vince Young for one year was absurdly good. I loved watching Detmer as well.
Jake Plummer had an amazing charisma in college. He was about all they had on offense, but he had this swagger that seemed almost magically to move the ball up and down the field.
Another personal favorite that nobody remembers because he was on bad teams was Tyler Watts at Alabama. He was a poor man's 2011 Logan Thomas. He was a great power runner, and a good passer on a bad team. I can recall when I worked on Saturdays and it seemed like he was always on the Jefferson Pilot SEC game of the week involved in a shootout because the Bama defense was so awful. Things have changed somewhat.
Maybe I'm in the minority with this but I think Tebow would be number one on my list.
I'm not talking NFL here, if we're just talking college QBs, I think he is the best and most effective weapon at that position. He could just dominate a game when he was at Florida. And I don't care who you are, his leadership ability is phenomenal.
I wish I could have seen Mark Bavaro in college. He was bad bad bad man in the NFL.
I think the Colts demoted their OC from last year to quarterbacks coach. That's the only one I can think of.
I've gotta assume that news is coming soon. I mean we are now less than a week away from the deadline for guys like Gayle and Thomas to declare for the draft. Our coaches wouldn't make changes after that time...would they? I certainly hope not at least. Here's to hoping that we have an answer before the weekend.
Its more about how AA looks than what comes out of her mouth.
Hokies will benefit from a big pile of D-I-S-R-E-S-P-E-C-T.
Bring it on!
If this is Days, things will indeed get steamy on Friday, but it will just end in a big cliffhanger that lasts until Monday

yeah, those are very reasonable observations
call me debbie downer but i just dont see us pulling the upset.
spot on analysis....any of us know all that....
A change will happen......100%
If you expect anyone to Pick VT to win you're on bath salts. We will open up larger than two touchdown dogs. Which is how I prefer it.
but she lacked to sate how many starters were returning on our defense to compete with McCarron and company
I don't disagree with anything she wrote. Bama is a really good team and we will likely have to play a flawless game to win.
Do you have any examples of when the OC was kept on staff on a demoted position while they hired an outsider to replace him? I don't know of any, and I would like to know of some and how it turned out for that team. To me, it sounds like a terrible idea where nothing right can come from it.
Because it stands out in my mind. I'm going to do three per position.
1. Archie Griffin
2. Herschel Walker
3. Bo Jackson
Honorable mention: Earl Campbell, & two USC backs, O.J. Simpson and Anthony Davis.
This one is hard because I remember a LOT of excellent QB's
Had to edit this because I reconsidered #3
1. Warren Moon (I still don't understand why nobody in the NFL wanted to draft him coming out of Washington. He was incredible.)
2. Joe Montana
3. (tie) Tommy Frazier & Archie Manning
Hard not to have some honorable mentions here: Jim Kelly, Dan Marino, Jim Plunkett,Ty Detmer, Vince Young...there are tons of others.
This one is difficult because TE's are rarely in the limelight
1. Dave Casper (yeah, I'm so old I remember when he was in college!)
2. Todd Christensen
3. Jason Whitten
1. Lynn Swann
2. Michael Irvin
3. Desmond Howard
Hon. Mention: Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald
Sean Glennon Director of Offense!
respects and cares about his coaches, even as he escorts them out the door. Yes, it's different than how change happens almost everywhere else, but Frank has gotten where he is today by treating people a certain way, and that won't change even if Shane tells Frank what he sees on Twitter.
Thinking back, he is making changes subsequent to the first time in forever that the staff didn't deliver 10 wins. He often mentioned the "10" as a measuring stick (in his own way, but we all understood) in public then is taking action when it didn't happen this year. Who was the last coach to send this clear of a message in public?
That said, if this is Days, we'll just have to wait until Friday when things should really get steamy.


I hope they have extra servers for when this news comes through because everyone is going to be commenting.
