Posting History (567)

We have a month before a coach is named

Everything for the next couple of weeks is speculative and wishful thinking.....

Most of what you've read here or elsewhere is basic BS.

I'm guessing it won't be until Dec when most of the chips start to fall anyway ... Before then it's simply speculation and bs

I don't think Pop is the answer. Maybe try a true freshman... Why not?

Not sure why Tech would bring Rangel in if he wasn't good enough to at least try him in a game... I agree that it must be an injury thing.

Well I am on the opposite end of the spectrum

Probably has been at least over a year the last time Tech played two decent games back to back .... So since they played a good 2nd half and OT to beat Cal, I'm expecting this game will bring us back to WTF status as fans .... I do hope I'm wrong ...

8/11 for 144 2 TDs 0 Ints in 1st vs #9 team. Seems reasonable for a CFB QB

Not a guarantee to be a NFL QB IMO but can be a solid college QB especially with his running ability ** Edited by MaryWashGrad at 11/1/2025, 12:48:30 PM

By the same token, People need to realize a big hire isn't a guarantee

A big splash hire can also miss and tbh if by chance it does would probably be worse .... There is going to be a high level of pressure on this committee that's for sure. I wouldn't believe Montgomery is currently on the list but I guess he can earn consideration with 7 + wins .... 7-2 record would be an accomplishment ** Edited by MaryWashGrad at 9/29/2025, 5:40:14 PM

5-2 with win @ UVA while bringing the team together. Then he should...

The "big" splash idea can be overrated.... However, if $$ is there I'm guessing there will be big splash opportunities for Tech.... Really depends on who will be making the decision IMO

I'm not going to complain.... That was an unexpected good half

Mistakes? Yeah they had some ... But they are playing hard. I'll take this type of Tech football for the rest of the season

They could be Top 5 in ACC this year

Florida St, Miami, GT, Louisville.... then really open for discussion after that ... ** Edited by MaryWashGrad at 9/20/2025, 8:24:13 PM

Exactly

But a plan where the QB still throws it and not run all the time.... It's basically gotten way too predictable ** Edited by MaryWashGrad at 9/17/2025, 5:21:43 PM

I would like to see him play....

Tech may not realize this but a QB who can actually throw the ball can be a positive attribute to the offense. They should go ahead and find out if he can make the offense click .... ** Edited by MaryWashGrad at 9/17/2025, 4:44:57 PM

To be fair we were laughed at before Pry was named coach

Afterwards there was a change of opinion on Huff since most didn't know anything about Pry ....

If HC/OC/DC can't develop or correctly use the recruits it's a moot point

Tech will want to keep him hopefully but at the moment the team wasn't getting the most out of these recruits with this coaching staff ** Edited by MaryWashGrad at 9/14/2025, 5:42:20 PM

Tech can't do much worse ....

Maybe some improvement but this year as a whole probably still toast ... Just maybe not as burnt

I'd like to see Rangel play ...

Let's find out if he can make this offense run better ** Edited by MaryWashGrad at 9/14/2025, 2:45:44 PM

If Tech let's Whit go, it would be a welcomed outcome.

I'd at least feel that Tech is finally seeing the problems and will attempt to correct them

I'm going to assume the AD pulled the plug on Pry to help save his own job

I can see Whit finagle his way into a stay ... However IMO Pry's hire and the things with Fuente should have been enough to have made this a combo firing

Which would further the case to dump Whit. Terrible budget shopper ...

He has proven he can't find a HC who would be a good fit financially while being able to actually be a good leader as well ** Edited by MaryWashGrad at 9/14/2025, 11:56:25 AM

Tech will wait until after the season to save a little $$ on Pry

In addition: If the season plays out like many of us now expect as a total and completely massive meltdown and embarrassment, it may also give more credit to removing Whit as well. Which would be a benefit ** Edited by MaryWashGrad at 9/14/2025, 8:57:55 AM

Dead Pry Walking

It will set Tech back even further; however he and the staff simply has to go.
