Pretty much as expected. Fu comment was spot on.**

Sounds like a lot of comments from mediocre football coaches who
SkyHokie 08/05/22 02:44 PM ET
it's like every year of the last decade. Injuries will tell the story.

Yikes, we are worse than all the NATTs even thought.

Corn & Hamilton deserved criticism...
HokieKick`nBack 08/04/22 03:12 PM ET
recruiting the first couple of years was on par with the normal beamer year
hokietom87 08/04/22 03:50 PM ET
100 percent correct- this was a bigger factor than recruiting - Fu did well
sacramento hokie 08/04/22 08:49 PM ET
Lots of 4* came in, then either busted or transferred out**
UpperQuad 08/04/22 11:50 PM ET
My opinion of Hamilton is the jury was out, and never came back...

Truth hurts. I'm giving Coach Pry a 3 year Mulligan**

Problem is that NIL has blurred VT's assumed ceiling

Same old media play...over dramatize everything. **
HOKIE FI 08/04/22 10:46 AM ET
That wasn't "media". It was from coaches...

"and it might take the same amount of time (as Beamer) to fix this"

Depends on the [perceived] progress**

Technocrat 08/04/22 10:33 AM ET
I completely disagree.
MP4VT2004 08/04/22 08:50 PM ET
Might be longer - NIL changes the game. Can we keep the kids Pry gets?

Some of the coaches will not stay that long. I fully expect Rudolph to be
IronBlood 08/04/22 11:32 AM ET
Interesting! I think we all are in for a surprise.
Ray 08/04/22 10:14 AM ET
Yeah, I think the anonymous coach undersold the QBs
Ancient Hokie 08/04/22 04:52 PM ET
We actually didn't even have a true P5 QB on roster last year. Now we do.**

Not sure you aren't onto something

6-6 would be miraculous**
Technocrat 08/04/22 10:50 AM ET
I wouldn't say miraculous at all
crazylane 08/04/22 11:13 AM ET
Well, let's be 1-0. Signed, The Focus Police**

Technocrat 08/04/22 12:17 PM ET
The VT assessment seemed nearly 100% correct to me
Zanderhokie 08/04/22 10:06 AM ET
Some of the assertions in this article are just not true
Technocrat 08/04/22 10:06 AM ET
It's unclear what that anonymous coach is referring to
Zanderhokie 08/04/22 10:17 AM ET
Probably talking about the "big" names: Clemson, Miami, FSU
Technocrat 08/04/22 10:31 AM ET
Which do you recommend, cry or laugh? **
OneStarHokie 08/04/22 09:29 AM ET
Laugh. Always laugh. :)**

Seikoh_04 08/04/22 09:04 AM ET
Actually the VT comments were nicer than I expected
HokieAl 08/03/22 09:34 PM ET
Agree. I'd like to know who "all the other coaches were that passed on VT"
3TechFanz 08/04/22 11:15 AM ET
I don't think he had a "salad fork in midair" moment
TomTurkey 08/04/22 03:47 PM ET
Agree w/this post. Many ACC teams = "paper tigers" & "paper don't play". **
seacain 08/03/22 10:33 PM ET
I think this team struggles to get to 21 on anyone this year. Like he said
133743Hokie 08/03/22 09:27 PM ET
Don't be surprised if we put up 40+ against our weaker opponents.
EDGEMAN 08/04/22 08:39 AM ET
I could definitely see Wells gunning down the likes of Wofford and Dook
Zanderhokie 08/04/22 10:19 AM ET
Wow, wow, and wow, I thought we still won 6 games last year and we’ll still

I dont read critiques from people who wint man up and ID themselves
tallahasseehokie 08/04/22 12:18 AM ET
If they ID'ed themselves, would have much more "vanilla" comments

based on the latest practice video, there isn't much talent at LB either**

A solid QB and good coaching go a long way
tallahasseehokie 08/03/22 09:21 PM ET
Based on playcalling alone - if you had the exact same players as last year

I think that is an overstatement.
