Because we're all Sunday morning quarterbacks.
Virginia QB Brennan Armstrong has entered the transfer portal as a grad transfer, @247SportsPortal has learned. Armstrong has thrown for more than 9,000 yards in his career.https://t.co/hmusmXavaG— Chris Hummer (@chris_hummer) December 1, 2022
If he had a year like 21 I'd take him in Blacksburg
No VT players on the first, second, OR third team All-ACC. That's the first time this has happened in the ACC or the Big East.
Sorta highlights the anonymous coach commentary from over the summer, from this post: https://www.thekeyplay.com/content/2022/august/3/acc-coaches-talk-anonym...
"It's not a stretch to say the offense doesn't have a top-half-of-the-league-level skill player at any position. They haven't signed a single player in the last two years that a high-level ACC program wanted."
And we have our first portal entrant:

Pry on the offensive approach this season: "Who we thought we wanted to be initially, we struggled to be that. Now where do you go?" #Hokies— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) November 28, 2022
Didn't see an other games thread. Figured we needed one.
For all my analytics nerds out there, our season is over, so I thought it would be interesting to compare our post season standing against our preseason projections.
A quick definition for those unfamiliar:
In a single sentence, it's a tempo- and opponent-adjusted measure of college football efficiency. [Bill Connelly] created the system at Football Outsiders in 2008, and as [his] experience with both college football and its stats has grown, [he has] made quite a few tweaks to the system.
Now that the season is officially over, it's time to take a look back at what went well, what didn't go well, and where we think we can make the biggest strides of improvement going into the Spring practices.
Personally, I liked what I saw defensively the majority of this year. I think our biggest problem there is depth. We get a competent 2 deep that doesn't tire out late in games and I think we'll have some solid foundation to work with next year.
Offensively, we need a ton of work. For a variety of reasons on and off the field that probably will be a few years in the making to resolve.
What say you?
Interesting for sure. If he gets it, I wonder how it would affect whether we go into the portal for someone else.
Pray I get it 🙏🏽 https://t.co/LUxMAat7Va— Jason Brown (@JasonBrown_QB) November 21, 2022
I double he would win out for the starting job over wells next year, but anything can happen between now and next September.
I have been hearing from a number of sources that the game is going to be postponed to Dec 3rd.
From everyone I've talked to last night and this morning, moving the #UVA-#Hokies football game to Dec. 3 is a very real possibility.— Mike Barber (@RTD_MikeBarber) November 21, 2022
Multiple people are claiming that their mobile tickets already reflect the date change.
The vibe has been too rough to subject myself to watching the post games pressers the last few weeks, but in light of a dub over the Fightin' Falwells and things somewhat coming together for the good guys(game management, OL play, penalties etc) I thought this would be a good way to keep riding this high.
A lot of this has been touched on in the FAM thread, but here's a consolidated list of insights into the sideline from Pry after the game:
FAM!
Alford took time to share some key statistics on the financial status of the Seminoles and how the program stacks up in regard to major conferences.

Hugh Freeze likes scandals which is why he coaches Liberty
This interview Doug Gottlieb did with former #Hokies coach Justin Fuente was good.Talks about mistakes he made at VT (staffing, recruiting, media). Thought Tech had better team than record indicated final few years. Is happy for Hendon Hooker's success. https://t.co/3SxOuOw88T— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) November 16, 2022
About to listen on my drive this afternoon. Thought I'd share for everyone's thoughts.
