Why not have every team have their players and coaches show up to promote the ACC. Make the damned thing a skills contest with live entertainment. Make it a weekend sellout event. If we can't compete with the television money from the SEC and BIG10, beat them in a different way.

With your way of thinking we would have never got to see Saban coach or all those he tutered. In his first 4 years at Michigan State, he never won more than 7 games in a season. Three 6 win seasons and one 7. And, I bet he evaluated his staff and made changes to improve. Pry is making big strides in staffing, NIL and the portal. It takes time and you can't just go get any coach at any time. The man wants to be here and was mentored as a GA under Frank and Bud so I would think that he has their support. Be patient.

That's just it, you don't know. From watching the game in your recliner it is easy to call after the fact. I didn't agree with the play calling in a lot of games but I am not there watching film and game planning. I do know these players came back because they believe in their coaching staff and vision for the program. Every head coach had to have their first job and every coordinator the same. Hopefully this staff will learn and have the longevity and success that Frank and Bud had

I guess we missed out on hiring an excellent experienced coach like yourself.

Just hung with and should have won against the #7 team in the country. That is improvement. But, hey, burn it down if you can't see the forest for the trees.

If you think you can replace a coach in his 3rd year of a major overhaul with another 2 million dollar coach and expect to be one of the best in the country, you are delusional. Pry has done a wonderful job of changing the culture in the day of NIL. The number of returning players tells that. Recruiting has been improved by Pry bringing in the right people. Also, look at our NIL payout compared to the other power 4 schools and it is amazing that we could retain talent. Rebuilding and changing the culture is a process, it takes time. Adjustments and change in personell will happen and I trust a coach who WANTS to be here and succeed! ** Edited by VaTechD at 9/28/2024, 10:27:40 PM
