Futility on offense has been the norm for so long, the PTSD is real...
I honestly can't think of another major program that makes offense so resemble string theory. The "forward pass" is graduate level physics it seems. All most Hokies want for Christmas is a #$%^&* offense, all the other cool kids have one.
It's understandable that with the new budget we thought was in place for assistants, we would be seeing a bona fide offensive assassin announced as OC. Instead we get a second helping of a former PSU co/oc named "Ty" that has zero awesome offenses recorded on his cv. It tastes like week old Thanksgiving leftovers.
He's a great TE end coach apparently, which is a position that has been treated as one step above water boy since you and Jeff King left town 20 years ago, so he's got that going for him.
Franklin's no dummy, so we have to trust his decisions, but man we wanted a name brand OC for once, and not "Equate". When he struggles, the criticism of the hire will be withering.
