Instead of reliving the exploratory rectal surgery we all had yesterday, I am digging into the Hokies offensive line recruits for film study. The Hokies now have six offensive linemen committed, but as a teaser, right now I kind of like two of the three kids that Matt Moore had already received commitments from. Hopefully Franklin can them them on.

Lane being Lane. All about him. He focuses on Carter not allowing him to punk Ole Miss and try to put a Natty on his resume (as he is leaving). He doesn't mention anywhere in his press release how he played UF and LSU against Ole Miss with no intention at all (imo) of staying in Oxford.

I will be pulling for Ole Miss to get that Natty and Lane to be on the outside (his choice) looking in.

Smith probably now I'm sure regrets leaving his alma mater since seems like he never had the right fit to stay at Sparty (doubly bad now since Oregon State just filled that vacancy)

Meh I doubt it. Oregon state was downgraded to G5 status. Also he got paid at MSU.

I think it still haunts him.

My sister had a class with him and she said he came in after that game and just wasn't himself. He was a good-natured guy, very friendly and joked around. She said he was just listless for a long time after that drop.

This is also what you get when your conference just gets too large and you only play half of the teams in the league in a given year. Also I have a strong hunch that the ACC with the latest iteration of their scheduling system tried to get as many good matchups as possible for tv. Then you have programs that you know aren't a draw/don't anticipate to be any good like UVA which has the softest schedule in the league and lucks out not having to play any of the other top teams in the league. They didn't play Miami, GT, or Pitt. Unbelievable that it just seems like they are falling ass backwards into a conference championship this year.

This and Alum's post above sums it up nicely. I for one am taking these two comments in and moving on. I have zero interest in any rear view mirror commentary.

I'm focusing on any and all forward progress news surrounding our AD, football program, coaching staff, recruiting HS and portal, and anything specifically regarding JMFF.

Lastly, I am very happy to see Joe reinvigorated, seeing all the posters coming back, and the overall energy on this site. Im excited about all of us most likely going to witness the next big era of our programs history in the making.

GO HOKIES!!!!
In JMFF We Trust!!!!!!

Like I said earlier, using the CFP rankings isn't ideal, if only for the sheer fact that they come out 3 days after the games are played. Instead, they could just factor in overall record into the tiebreakers.

Or, they could go back to having divisions and arrange the schedule so that all of the potentially tied teams have obvious on-the-field tiebreakers.

All those years that people were crying about shitty Coastal champions, wanting the "two best teams"....well...we got that, and it's two shitty Coastal teams.

It was pretty ridiculous last night during our game and the SMU/Cal game how the scenarios kept shifting, even though all of the involved teams were still playing.

Not gonna lie, last few years of no all-access Key Play combined with the state of VT football have been rough, man.

If I have to put up with Kelly putting him at Sparty to occasionally trip up Ohio St and Michigan would work for me

Dang 2 things here

1. Smith probably now I'm sure regrets leaving his alma mater since seems like he never had the right fit to stay at Sparty (doubly bad now since Oregon State just filled that vacancy)

2. Dollars to duckets that if he does get a job anywhere this cycle, this would be the landing place for Brian Kelly given his background and general most of his coaching experience has been in this area of the midwest

EDIT:

Also some rumors/smoke that Pat Fitzgerald may be a likely target here - at least some familiarity with the area (again B1G/midwest) - but not sure if that's worth locking $33 mil down for
