Exactly. The same guy who got us a Top-25 recruiting class to some lost

his mind in the last few days and is now borderline buffoon. And can we just drop the rankings on Pry's defense while he was there - that was pre-NIL and they were playing B10 opponents, not exactly Wofford or ODU. \ Everyone needs to take a deep breath. We are in a big hole. First step was to get a PROVEN P4 coach (check); Second was to change the trajectory on the recruiting (check); 3rd is staff and 4th portal needs. I am not going to slit my wrists over Brent Pry getting the DC gig. Risk, yes. But, so is hiring some other guy he doesn't know or has not worked with closely in the past. For now, I see "stability" and "known" quantities in what he has done. There is risk in each scholoarship, each portal, each coach, all of it - I am going to let this play out and not get ahead of where we are on the timeline. MTH

It is weird, and there's no way to spin it otherwise.

Best case: Dominant D this year, gets Pry a solid P4 HC job...

Pry won't leave until his kids finish up school.**

QuinnVT • 12/07/25 06:40 PM ET
Keep in mind that Franklin’s the rep and the $$$ to make the team much

Who cares. Buck the heck up.
3Manysons • 12/07/25 05:43 PM ET
Not sure why Franklin or VT should care how the media reacts
