The second half last game was a really bad way to lose.

A Call for Patience and Support

Have you noticed that he is not upset when we lose? No passion
Jethro Tull • 09/07/25 09:46 PM ET
Been saying that for years. Teams still need the energy from a HC.
Bburg Mac • 09/07/25 11:13 PM ET
Kinda agree. But we got out talented, right? D and O lines got blowed up.

All of y’all are dreaming if you think VT will ever be in the steady 9 win
cricket77 • 09/07/25 08:09 PM ET
Heck, I’d take 7-8 wins steady with the occasional 10+ win season
HwoodHokie • 09/07/25 08:35 PM ET
Was hanging with you until you said “next season”**
Omgobbles • 09/07/25 07:55 PM ET
Next season? Go 4-8 or 5-7 and the team will be under new management.**

This would have been a good post in 2023 or even 2024. Not so much in 2025.

Margin for error is close to zero. Needs to go 8-2 the rest of the way

If 2 losses required, I’d prefer odu and wofford **
VT757to276 • 09/07/25 07:16 PM ET
If he loses either, he doesn’t make it to game 5 to prove anything **
HwoodHokie • 09/07/25 07:19 PM ET
No need to nuke everyone after 2 games....and that is pretty stupid anyway
HOaKIE • 09/07/25 07:07 PM ET
Is it? At this rate things can get much worse.

There has been plenty of patience and support for years now.

Sometimes is *how* you lose. I grew up in the 90's and enjoyed the run.

To put it mildly. Check out these second half factoids:

Honest question...did the team quit in the second half?**

You could almost stomach that if it were Ohio State or LSU who did it.
