VT-ACC

Rich Rodriguez - the guy could win here. His personality and toughness. The offensive intervention. The baggage is the issue. I get it but how badly do you want to win? Pry deserves a chance but he isn’t even in the same universe as Rich Rod in terms of on the field coaching. Risky hire. If nothing else Rich Rod would be looking out for his guys on some of these questionable calls and not drawing stick figures on his notepad.
