Football Forum
Because we're all Sunday morning quarterbacks.
Watching Wake and NC State tonight waiting for Commanders game to start. They are doing the whole review again on TV tonight which is good.
Interested to see how Georgia Tech and Clemson turns out.
Can Wisconsin send Alabama to 1-2?
Miami hosting USF should tell us what we need to know about Da U.
Texas A&M at Notre Dame should be a good one.
What else are you watching?

I don't know why I made this. I needed an outlet for the feelings I have around the program right now, as I, like many of you, feel that Virginia Tech Football is in the midst of a dark night of the soul right now.
This is a collection of footage from over the years, telling the tale of Hokie football from the time I was old enough to love it, up until today.
Sharing it here, because I know you guys will "get it".

I mean good for him. I'm sure he'll have as great a positive impact on the CFP as he did for us while being here.

In lieu of starting a new one for every thread, I'll just keep bumping this and changing the OP for each game as its announced.

By now, there has been a lot of discussion on the topic of athletic funding, how far behind we are, what is needed to close the gap, and that discussion can be found in several threads recently.

The SZD guys (Alex and Richard) touched on VT's situation in their Hurry Up recap show on Sunday and elaborated a bit on it in an Overtime segment released for subscribers earlier this morning. The main takeaways will not surprise anyone: Virginia Tech is viewed as being old fashioned, antiquated and not positioned to seriously compete in the ACC and they also discuss the reporting on the BOV presentation from Doug Bowman and Matt Brown. This is an existential question for VT.

Who would you want to replace Pry (assuming the current trajectory continues)?
Four guys who I think are within the realm of reality are:
- Charles Huff (obtainable)
- Dan Mullen (small reach - might have to compete against a mid/low-P2 school/salary)
- Jon Summerall (reach - I think he's going to an SEC school this year)
- Alex Golish (reach - I think he can go wherever he wants this off season)
Shane ain't happening. Who else you interested in?

Sometimes, in the brief periods before death, a love one might show an unexpected moment of their former body and spirit before passing. For one quarter, Virginia Tech showed the promise and the hype we have all been waiting on for nearly a decade. What followed was a three quarter descent into football hell, worse than almost anything seen during the purgatory that began when we were excited to see a bowl streak continue by inching out six win seasons.

That's pretty much all I have to say after this one. -20 yards in the second half? Game turns on its head when we cowardly punt on 4th and 3 inches after Vandy drove the field at ease on us?
Yeah I'm done. He ain't it
Oh, and don't let Whit off the hook here. Two abysmal football coaching hires in a row setting up 2 golden parachute payments to buy them out? Nah, he doesn't get to make a 3rd hire. Shoot him into the sun as well
There were 5 minutes to go in the game when this was taken:

Things feel like they are about to get very ugly in Blacksburg from here on out

Does anyone know how much the new rev share rankings will be impacted by being kicked off ACCN to espn+ when we are one of the only interesting saturday night matchups while clemson tries not to lose to troy?

"The entrance is the best part of the game, that's got to change"
"Back with Michael Vick and Corey Moore, it was awesome because they actually won games...they haven't done anything"
"Kyron Drones really struggled last week"
"All we talk about with VT is the entrance...until they actually win a big game, I'm taking Vanderbilt"
...sigh...

Louisville out here looking like trash against JMU. 27 yards of offense in the first quarter.
What else are you watching this weekend?
Keeping my eye on Illinois at Duke
Feels too early to have Iowa/Iowa State but here we are
Michigan at Oklahoma is only ranked game so guess we see how that goes.

Thought this was a good conversation that discusses the current landscape and how things have changed with NIL. I found it interesting that he seems to share the same concerns that we've all voiced, considering he's in the SEC.
