HortHokie 09/30/25 09:51 AM ET
So, he didn't learn from past experiences?
EDGEMAN 09/30/25 10:20 AM ET
I'm sure he has learned something from his past experiences but
HortHokie 09/30/25 02:21 PM ET

Zanderhokie 09/29/25 09:23 PM ET
It would be a formality, either he will be HC next year or not

Interesting question. I think a lot depends on the question of role of the

45% win % @ Tulsa - Can he recruit? Develop?
Concord Dan 09/29/25 06:53 PM ET
A bowl game? No. 8-4 or 9-3? Maybe**

Not possible this year. You give the man an o-3 record to start with whad d
949hokie 09/29/25 06:41 PM ET
Meant overall, so from his perspective, 8-1 or 9-0**

Not if the plan is to have a coach that can create a team that

jrc3rd 09/29/25 05:06 PM ET
It would be 6-3 as head coach**

Yes. That would be really tough to get to six wins given the card he wde de
949hokie 09/29/25 06:47 PM ET
Yes as he became coach at 0-3**
949hokie 09/29/25 06:42 PM ET
That's where my argument falls apart.**
jrc3rd 09/29/25 07:15 PM ET

Bigger question is At what point is he considered for HC next year?
VT757to276 09/29/25 04:49 PM ET
