I think 8 wins would be a good season.

The team we had in 2024 went 6-6. Probably should have been 8-4. Talent wise, I think next years team is above that team. We can beat Clemson. We can beat SMU. Not saying we will. W - VMI W - ODU ? - Maryland ? - UVA W - BC ? - Cal ? - Clemson L - Miami ? - SMU ? - GT W - Pitt W - Stanford If we win the games I think we should win and then split the ones I'm not sure about, that's 8 wins.

Expectations
CvilleHokie04 • 01/15/26 08:01 PM ET
VMI-W, Miami-L, everything else is a toss up on paper. So much ACC parity**
Techsupport • 01/16/26 04:09 PM ET
Rumored that um is going after Duke QB
SunDevilHokie • 01/16/26 12:40 PM ET
Entered the portal and it’s all but a done deal to scUM***
sacramento hokie • 01/16/26 05:32 PM ET
Is tampering still illegal? I mean for teams not in Miami **
SunDevilHokie • 01/16/26 06:04 PM ET
I’m glad most of our team has been settled. I wouldn’t want to be a player
Hoakie82 • 01/16/26 05:29 PM ET
Build a solid team and let the wins take care of themselves.**

This is not about getting back to the "Good Ol Days"
jonnyhawk • 01/16/26 10:49 AM ET
Bowl-elgible season (6-7 wins)...

hokiedad25 • 01/16/26 09:52 AM ET
I don’t think there are any sure fire losses on the schedule
CvilleHokie04 • 01/16/26 10:40 AM ET
Highly unlikely in year one with ourv away schedule **
Hokeedokee • 01/16/26 09:11 AM ET
No ACCCG in yr1, after all it took JF 2 years to win the B10 championship
V333T • 01/16/26 09:49 AM ET
We will drop some conference games but I'm skeptical that there will be
BG Hokie • 01/16/26 09:25 AM ET
I get what you're saying but I think this team will make too many mistakes
marcbvtgm • 01/16/26 11:59 AM ET
Yeah, Miami should be the favorite. After that is a free for all.**
reestuart • 01/16/26 09:31 AM ET
Hard to believe PSU let him go…errr fired him **
JackDSML • 01/16/26 08:41 AM ET
You're just setting yourself up for disappointment. Team is very young.
HokieKanger • 01/16/26 08:27 AM ET
Exactly **
Hokeedokee • 01/16/26 09:23 AM ET
Have you looked at the schedule and the roster?
marcbvtgm • 01/16/26 08:23 AM ET
Yeah I agree
CvilleHokie04 • 01/16/26 08:48 AM ET
I think JF looked at the schedule and said it ain't happenin' in Y1.
marcbvtgm • 01/16/26 12:08 PM ET
The OL and D are still ??? ... Hard to be sanguine at this point. **
Long-Lost Hokie • 01/16/26 07:18 AM ET
Hard to believe Miami can't find a QB. They have money, and Malachi Toney.
TekkNerd • 01/16/26 06:39 AM ET
I wouldn’t worry about Miami. They’ll get a QB.
marcbvtgm • 01/16/26 08:19 AM ET
You're right, they haven't missed on a starting portal QB yet.**
TekkNerd • 01/16/26 08:45 AM ET
I'm thinking 8 wins. A vast improvement but not setting the world on fire.
ChrisLords • 01/16/26 01:54 AM ET
Clemson will depend on their record when they play VT
CMU Hokie • 01/16/26 01:05 PM ET
Cal might be tough
CvilleHokie04 • 01/16/26 06:23 AM ET
Cal scares me if it comes after 2 weeks of playing @BC @Miami or @SMU.
ChrisLords • 01/17/26 01:23 AM ET
One of GT and Pitt will be a win
CMU Hokie • 01/16/26 04:17 AM ET
maybe we should wait-n-Depth-Chart see post-v.M.i.?**
bourbonstreet • 01/16/26 12:35 AM ET
10 wins would get me feeling like the old days
