"C" for change. We hollered for change and we got it! Upgrade on paper. OC

especially based on track records. Looks like more with no coach covering multiple player positions. IDK how granular you got to be at this level but more and better focus should be an upgrade. I'll optimistically give a B+ primarily based on the new OC.

No idea. Anyone who thinks they really do is peeing in the wind.
marcbvtgm • 03/06/25 02:22 PM ET
Exactly...
Techsupport • 03/06/25 02:44 PM ET
I think OC was an A+ hire (upgrade), DC a C+ (push). Overall net upgrade
Techsupport • 03/06/25 01:52 PM ET
Defensive coach was a big upgrade
Happy Dog • 03/07/25 08:49 AM ET
A guy with years experience as a DC in P5 college football would be an A
Techsupport • 03/07/25 09:33 AM ET
Experienced P5 coordinators are hard to find

Unfortunately, the most likely outcome is failure within the couple years
BG Hokie • 03/06/25 10:36 AM ET
Why is the outcome most likely a failure? Curious, thanks.**

Mere speculation at this time. Revisit topic in December 2025.**

I think the coordinators with the additional staff will be great

It depends on how the staff works with the new coordinators
