Don’t think we’ll be world beaters but

7-5 is about what I’m thinking

Key to the season IMO: don’t start 0-2
hokiepro • 05/25/25 09:35 AM ET
Strongly disagree. Pry hasn't been good at many things but having his
BG Hokie • 05/28/25 04:28 PM ET
Yeah, I think Pry's teams play hard. Hard to knock him for that. That's
reestuart • 05/29/25 09:30 AM ET
Yes, he strikes me as a really good players coach that does a lot of the
BG Hokie • 05/29/25 10:20 AM ET
His hiring of coordinators has been BY FAR his biggest weakness
Happy Dog • 05/29/25 12:51 PM ET
VT would have been as well off with no DC the past couple of years.**
reestuart • 05/29/25 01:35 PM ET
Marve was pretty destructive
Happy Dog • 05/29/25 01:43 PM ET
The Rutgers game was maddening...
TekkNerd • 05/30/25 08:06 AM ET
Good question!
Happy Dog • 05/30/25 11:36 AM ET
Yeah, VT didn't look like they could stop anything at times. APR was
reestuart • 05/29/25 01:58 PM ET
Peebles had a very strong season too. LB play was atrocious.**
BG Hokie • 05/30/25 01:20 PM ET
In several games, it didn't look like there was any defender in the middle
reestuart • 05/30/25 01:23 PM ET
Only if someone wasn't so out of position they were in his way**
Happy Dog • 05/29/25 02:09 PM ET
Yep. I agree. **
reestuart • 05/29/25 10:57 AM ET
Keep drinking the cool aid **
NativeBurger • 05/28/25 09:58 PM ET
Expand on that if you're capable. What do you disagree with that I've said?
BG Hokie • 05/29/25 08:42 AM ET
Interesting, hardly anyone thinks we beat Shane, I wonder if team does too?**
Stech • 05/27/25 09:04 AM ET
Pry, in my opinion, generally has his players motivated to play. I don't
BG Hokie • 06/02/25 02:30 PM ET
I question their stamina in the 4th quarter, but hopefully Jared fixes that**
Stech • 06/02/25 04:07 PM ET
Nobody seems to remember ODU had to fumble inside their own 10 to lose at
hokiepro • 05/27/25 12:33 PM ET
The transitive property of sports is pretty meaningless.**
BG Hokie • 05/29/25 08:43 AM ET
Last year.....yep..This is This year and VT..
JRHokie • 05/28/25 06:21 AM ET
Let’s hope Gamecocks struggle again in the opener. Maybe even be too cocky.**
Hokie`79 • 05/27/25 03:59 PM ET
Shane is Lombardi bringing his Packers to ATL according to the board...
BROman Hokie • 05/27/25 10:19 AM ET
With new Coordinators on both sides of the ball, I’m hoping that it will be
Hokie`79 • 05/27/25 10:17 AM ET
And they don't adjust well**
TomTurkey • 05/27/25 10:52 AM ET
Not likely. Vandy 13 returning starters...
Techsupport • 05/26/25 05:52 PM ET
Former pillow-fighting expert Stacy Keibler could provide us with pointers.
KCHokie2 • 05/26/25 11:09 PM ET
If not mistaken Pavia is back for another year. The dude is good. **
40ozDistrict • 05/26/25 07:41 PM ET
He may have two more years since JUCO no longer counts**
Happy Dog • 05/27/25 11:49 AM ET
JUCO waiver was given for just 1 year
AirborneHokie96 • 05/29/25 10:44 AM ET
I don’t think we’re going to be as bad as some think **
hokiepro • 05/26/25 05:55 PM ET
Pry tell you that? Tic **
3TechFanz • 05/28/25 10:13 AM ET
Nope just a feeling**
hokiepro • 05/28/25 10:22 AM ET
Maybe not. But all boats rise with high tide.

Another year of Blowing Smoke..Tradition here on this Site..

hokiepro • 05/28/25 07:03 AM ET
7 wins would be a disaster..
Screenwriter • 05/28/25 12:56 PM ET
LOL, 7 wins is a disaster but 8-4 is a success. Most illogical thing I've
BG Hokie • 05/28/25 04:30 PM ET
Not based on schedule it’s not
hokiepro • 05/28/25 01:17 PM ET
agry... this is at least a 4 win team... with +++Qb1 health? 6 or 7, maybe?**
bourbonstreet • 05/27/25 07:29 PM ET
So Pro, what is our prediction of our coming season?**
George Baylor • 05/27/25 07:44 AM ET
7-5**
hokiepro • 05/27/25 07:57 PM ET
Don't this we'll be that bad. I do feel like average (6-6) is our ceiling.
kchokie • 05/26/25 07:34 PM ET
I don't know if we will be better record wise but I like Montgomery calling
Tombo • 05/26/25 07:31 PM ET
Defense got a much bigger coordinator upgrade
Happy Dog • 05/27/25 11:09 AM ET
i like Montgomery too. I feel like he'll have a better feel for end of game
kingofcassell • 05/27/25 09:17 AM ET
I don't know if we will be better record wise but I like Montgomery calling
Tombo • 05/26/25 07:31 PM ET
Agreed.**
40ozDistrict • 05/26/25 06:16 PM ET
Maybe we can get a split but not expecting it.
OrlandoHokie • 05/26/25 04:30 PM ET
I’m feeling like Scenario 2 is the most likely at this point
Zanderhokie • 05/26/25 09:58 PM ET
What about winning both?**
EDGEMAN • 05/26/25 06:00 PM ET
Scenario 4 but I am going to need more beer to believe that **
OrlandoHokie • 05/26/25 06:35 PM ET
0-2 looks probable. UCS-e sure L, Vandy w/ QB will be tough, can we score?**
George Baylor • 05/26/25 08:10 AM ET
Can we score? We will have a good QB with experience
hokiepro • 05/26/25 08:35 AM ET
Is Greene really a stud? He's shown promise, for sure but I think the odds
BG Hokie • 05/29/25 11:12 AM ET
Truthfully, we have no way of knowing what "should be" a winnable game
VTCALS72 • 05/26/25 08:09 AM ET
We had a pretty good idea last season, but this season is still a mystery.**
EDGEMAN • 05/26/25 11:13 AM ET
It's idiotic for VT to schedule P2 teams...just idiotic**
Scream_On_D • 05/25/25 10:54 PM ET
Many here would like nothing less than 12 P5 opponents**
marcbvtgm • 05/26/25 02:26 PM ET
not just any p5 opponents but the top p5 opponents**
Windows NT • 05/26/25 02:34 PM ET
Yeah. And it's not like S.Car and Vandy are even SEC powerhouses.
marcbvtgm • 05/27/25 01:44 PM ET
If we start 0-2, JC Price could be a 2x interim head coach
kingofcassell • 05/25/25 01:09 PM ET
{/zing}**
bourbonstreet • 05/26/25 09:49 PM ET
If Price is 2x interim coach maybe he's part of problem?**
marcbvtgm • 05/26/25 02:27 PM ET
I would be surprised if Pry's leash wasn't a mile and a half long. I'd say
Tombo • 05/26/25 12:00 PM ET
He’s here all year, no matter what **
Atl-Thumper • 05/27/25 11:44 AM ET
Buyout too high still probably.
Maroon Baboon • 05/26/25 11:24 AM ET
Either way, we won’t have to worry about it.
Zanderhokie • 05/26/25 10:01 PM ET
We got down 17-0 & went on 27-3 run last year
hokiepro • 05/25/25 03:41 PM ET
Dreaming a bit, but imagine going 2-0 !

Yes, that makes for one of our best chances IMO. They really have very
BG Hokie • 05/29/25 11:47 AM ET
That should help us in the first half...
EDGEMAN • 05/26/25 11:13 AM ET
