The results have shown up on the field.. this is the issue with fans

Fans expect to go from zero to hero, that’s not how football works. We went from a 2 win team to a bowl team who never got close to competitiveness with a real team. Then we went from a bowl team who lost games by 1 score instead of 3+ scores. Lose small then win small, that’s how progression goes. We’re at the win small stage currently.

I think it’s a combo of August revisionist history & irrational exhuberance**

Agree … I can still enjoy watching college football and

Culture = 6/6. We should be 8-4 or better. CBP won't get us there.**
George Baylor • 08/09/25 07:43 AM ET
So the floor for a coach is a constant +2 over your culture and asset base?
VTCALS72 • 08/09/25 09:13 AM ET
Some people get riled up when he is criticized, but I don't see why.
TekkNerd • 08/09/25 07:12 AM ET
Don’t understand why people like him
deathrow821 • 08/10/25 12:53 PM ET
Well, people have a right to their opinion just like you do as that’s why

An average coach would have chosen experienced coordinators.**

This is actually the biggest mistake he made, being a first time HC, he

It feels to me we are more like at the win few stage than the win small
BEST2VT • 08/09/25 08:33 AM ET
name drop me; pluuuuze! who said: 'he's a great culture coach?'

Either we establish our running game, or we'll reestablish our crying game.

bourbonstreet • 08/08/25 08:30 PM ET
Coupled with his history of defending CBP et al, yeah!**
saret • 08/08/25 08:31 PM ET
Not much about changing the culture at VT more about fitting in the VT
VTCALS72 • 08/08/25 06:27 PM ET
Personally I like cultures that win.**
UpstateSCHokie • 08/08/25 06:08 PM ET
Agreed. Some cultures just aren't made to last.
