Kyron ready for 2025?
rehokies • 09/02/25 07:45 PM ET
The problem is healthy or not he is just not very good
GblGbl • 09/03/25 09:50 AM ET
He hasn’t “regressed every year”
hokiepro • 09/03/25 10:18 AM ET
INTs into the EZ = dead to me...
banishedtothelounge • 09/03/25 09:37 AM ET
Several realities. Some would say excuses but I say reasons
hokiepro • 09/02/25 08:01 PM ET
Plus some other things
marcbvtgm • 09/03/25 11:21 AM ET
Playing hurt could have introduced some bad habits that he hasn't resolved
Jmac610 • 09/03/25 08:28 AM ET
He looked rusty....hopefully he will work that off soon**
Happy Dog • 09/03/25 07:55 AM ET
These are all true, however...
BuffaloTraceHokie • 09/02/25 09:28 PM ET
What I don't know is whether USCe was just good enough on D
VTCALS72 • 09/03/25 07:28 AM ET
Again, most of the issues from Drones...
BuffaloTraceHokie • 09/03/25 09:30 PM ET
I understand but I think they are.
VTCALS72 • 09/03/25 09:42 PM ET
You and I are likely going to see this differently, which is OK...
BuffaloTraceHokie • 09/03/25 09:47 PM ET
Looked like a couple fakes weren’t there because RB went wrong way too
hokiepro • 09/02/25 09:31 PM ET
Drones said as much in post-game presser. Took the blame and said it will

Nah... I'm going to respectfully disagree. His lack of

Bottom line on the Drone's Offense: Someone a couple of days ago stated an

I wonder what the stats are when he runs >10 times a game (not incl sacks)?**
marcbvtgm • 09/03/25 11:25 AM ET
Better Bottom Line: That was 2 games last year. Miami and Vandy. In 2023
hoosnowahokie • 09/03/25 09:00 AM ET
He probably had to throw the ball more because we were behind.**
ChrisLords • 09/02/25 09:19 PM ET
true in 2nd half. **

I am surprised you didn't pull out the "he's hurt" excuse** ◄
AirborneHokie96 • 09/02/25 09:11 PM ET
He’s not. But playing hurt shouldn’t be something we need
hokiepro • 09/02/25 09:24 PM ET
IMO, if you're being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to play...
MP4VT2004 • 09/02/25 10:01 PM ET
All the above can be true
Pride_and_Joy • 09/02/25 08:31 PM ET
How dare you post reasonable explanations…….😁**
RJHokie • 09/02/25 08:23 PM ET
Good Analysis… BUT, a QBR of 44 Needs Massive Improvement**
vtchem75 • 09/02/25 08:12 PM ET
Oh he can play a lot better for sure. I just don’t buy the
hokiepro • 09/02/25 09:00 PM ET
Two words...Mark Leal**
marcbvtgm • 09/03/25 11:26 AM ET
Drones missed some throws, but also had receivers drop balls when wide open
Hokie`79 • 09/03/25 06:53 AM ET
Bryan Randall didn’t take 3 years to develop as a passer**
Tailgate Guru • 09/02/25 09:22 PM ET
Wrong. He wasn't truly effective until jr. season. He also didn't have the
ancient alien 2018 • 09/02/25 09:29 PM ET
He was a much more natural passer from day one**
Tailgate Guru • 09/02/25 10:18 PM ET
No he wasn't. And the game was much different then. You're romanticizing.
marcbvtgm • 09/03/25 11:27 AM ET
Opinions are like noses. We all have them.**
Tailgate Guru • 09/03/25 02:13 PM ET
You’re not remembering very well
hokiepro • 09/03/25 06:23 AM ET
And 3 or 4 of the easy ones were dropped.**
marcbvtgm • 09/03/25 11:28 AM ET
We get it. You’re a Drones fan.**
Tailgate Guru • 09/03/25 08:10 AM ET
I’m a Hokie QB fan; I’m not going to dump on our QB1
hokiepro • 09/03/25 08:33 AM ET
No one is dumping on anyone
Tailgate Guru • 09/03/25 08:44 AM ET
You may not be but there are people sayjng
hokiepro • 09/03/25 08:49 AM ET
Who is saying it?**
AirborneHokie96 • 09/03/25 09:51 AM ET
Here’s one example
hokiepro • 09/03/25 10:20 AM ET
That is the way I remember it too
VTCALS72 • 09/03/25 07:35 AM ET
Uh yeah he did
hokiepro • 09/02/25 09:25 PM ET
Not true
Tailgate Guru • 09/02/25 10:23 PM ET
Didn't you claim before the game that if the score was close in the 4th
AirborneHokie96 • 09/02/25 09:13 PM ET
We lost due to mistakes not being gassed**
hokiepro • 09/02/25 09:18 PM ET
Better blocking schemes and intense practices
