Serious question. If Franklin is the hire, does he bring Pry back as DC
vtdasc90 • 11/16/25 03:28 PM ET
We want anyone Franklin is comfortable with... NO ONE NEW
adgoodri • 11/17/25 03:54 PM ET
No, not a DC but I could see him being a consultant and staying in the area**
BG Hokie • 11/17/25 09:12 AM ET
I hope Jim Knowles, the current Penn State DC, will follow Franklin.
HokieFlyFisher • 11/17/25 06:14 AM ET
No thanks on Knowles.**
reestuart • 11/17/25 08:26 AM ET
Maybe Franklin could steal JMU's DC. He is crushing it there.**
BG Hokie • 11/17/25 09:13 AM ET
Yeah, I'm not really a Knowles fan, and I'm an Ohio State fan (along w/VT).
reestuart • 11/17/25 01:23 PM ET
No. At best an analyst job in the "front office".
Atlee Hokie • 11/17/25 01:22 AM ET
Do u think he won the PSU HC job by having zero common sense?
tallahasseehokie • 11/16/25 07:36 PM ET
Pry would already be under contract so out of pocket = $0**
Jethro Tull • 11/16/25 06:16 PM ET
True. If Pry became an analyst, a special assistant or
HokieFlyFisher • 11/17/25 06:29 AM ET
Yes! And Fuente as OC
VaPoly07 • 11/16/25 05:41 PM ET
As John McEnroe would say, 'You can't be serious!'**
Bburg Mac • 11/16/25 06:18 PM ET
The actual quote was "you cannot be serious" (racket slamming net)**
Jethro Tull • 11/16/25 08:28 PM ET
"You can NOT be serious!"**
Accord Type-R • 11/17/25 02:16 AM ET
Pry talking up VT to JF so he can sell him his house.**
ACCWatcher • 11/16/25 05:40 PM ET
Absolutely not. Pry hired a DC and another DC. Not a good stay at VT
HokiePokie95 • 11/16/25 05:35 PM ET
No but Pry may be hired to work somewhere in the football operations.

Only if Franklin wants to alienate have the alumni base & undercut the…
Hokiefied • 11/16/25 04:51 PM ET
💯 I don't want to see his face at another postgame presser. Such a waste
HokiePokie95 • 11/16/25 05:38 PM ET
And then we sucked again quickly **
fordham • 11/16/25 07:02 PM ET
Yeah but a lot more competitive than 38-0 halftime ODU. His team had quit

A 'Fake it till you make it' coach.**
Bburg Mac • 11/16/25 06:21 PM ET
And that’s why I wouldn’t do that to Pry. Pry would probably be an
97Hokie • 11/16/25 04:56 PM ET
However you have rationalize it, as long as Pry isn’t hired, I’m good.**
Hokiefied • 11/16/25 06:09 PM ET
Doubt it. I wouldn’t due that to Pry.**
97Hokie • 11/16/25 04:48 PM ET
He's paid his do's**
Accord Type-R • 11/17/25 02:18 AM ET
Just the thought of Pry as DC made me dew dew my pants!**
BG Hokie • 11/17/25 09:14 AM ET
He probably wouldn't want the gig
crazylane • 11/16/25 05:27 PM ET
And James Franklin didn’t hit the lottery? I hate when people only look at
