@Chris Coleman Ethan Grunkemeyer
MKD • 01/23/26 09:58 AM ET
And a credible threat of a running game will be as important, so run
Red Headed Hokie • 01/24/26 11:43 AM ET
I’d be thrilled if Grunkenmeyer = Druckenmiller. **
Hoakie82 • 01/23/26 06:41 PM ET
I didn't see it
crazylane • 01/23/26 05:08 PM ET
Receivers have to catch the ball too**
Brown Water • 01/23/26 03:16 PM ET
I think our receivers need "stick em" applied to their gloves...lol**
EDGEMAN • 01/23/26 04:05 PM ET
No longer on their shins?**
likehokies • 01/23/26 10:02 PM ET
Coat them heel to toe with it!
EDGEMAN • 01/24/26 05:38 AM ET
That is genius level thinking. **
likehokies • 01/24/26 08:21 AM ET
The problem w/stickem on a grass field is the grass gets stuck on your
Hoakie82 • 01/23/26 06:52 PM ET
I think edgeman is right**
HOKIE1 • 01/23/26 06:42 PM ET
Having a QB that’s a threat to throw downfield will do wonders for the OL
Hokiefied • 01/23/26 02:31 PM ET
I think Grunk will be okay behind a line that is "serviceable".
TekkNerd • 01/23/26 11:29 AM ET
I agree and Grunkenmeyer can throw in very tight spaces from within the
MKD • 01/23/26 12:22 PM ET
Exactly way too often when "pocket passer" is mentioned fans automatically
VTCALS72 • 01/23/26 12:04 PM ET
Sean Glennon was getting hit exactly 2 seconds after the snap.
EDGEMAN • 01/23/26 04:06 PM ET
I did the same. I always thought SG got a bad rap on here.**
VTCALS72 • 01/23/26 06:00 PM ET
I agree. Unfortunately, the lack of an OL prevented us from ever seeing
Hoakie82 • 01/23/26 06:28 PM ET
Play calling, formations, predictability-offensive coaching was lacking too**
Hate2SeeItEnd Hokie • 01/23/26 05:02 PM ET
PSU OL didn't look like top 15 pass block to me in the all-dropback video
marcbvtgm • 01/23/26 11:07 AM ET
They ranked No. 15 nationally in pass blocking as a team.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/23/26 11:12 AM ET
... against better competition**
WildTurkE • 01/24/26 11:30 AM ET
Ranked by whom? Not by my eyes. Better, but not by miles and miles
marcbvtgm • 01/23/26 11:26 AM ET
PFF grades.** ◄
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/23/26 11:27 AM ET
Exactly. Use your own eyes and forget the PFF BS.**
marcbvtgm • 01/23/26 11:28 AM ET
Well, I'd say this...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/23/26 11:31 AM ET
I just went back and read my texts from the day Monty was hired…
st_andrew • 01/23/26 05:31 PM ET
I'll bet. I thought he was a great hire because he'd previously been a HC
vatechcowpatty • 01/23/26 06:03 PM ET
No brainer to not give VT's 2025 OL anything but a horrible pass grade**
marcbvtgm • 01/23/26 04:19 PM ET
Damn! Guess that’s why Monty still is unemployed **
AnotherTechW • 01/23/26 11:42 AM ET
Of course.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/23/26 11:45 AM ET
What puzzled me is when Monty deviated, it worked but...
marcbvtgm • 01/23/26 04:26 PM ET
I think he probably would have, but that injury.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/23/26 04:28 PM ET
Yeah, you're right. I forgot about the injury.**
marcbvtgm • 01/23/26 04:29 PM ET
So why was he allowed to be hired???**
AnotherTechW • 01/23/26 11:52 AM ET
You know the answer of that.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/23/26 11:53 AM ET
Or he was hired because he was the best looking suit on the discount rack.**
VTCALS72 • 01/23/26 12:10 PM ET
This does not give me warm and fuzzies about or DC. His decision making
AnotherTechW • 01/23/26 12:07 PM ET
His executive decision making was terrible.**
BoozVT • 01/23/26 04:47 PM ET
But was it primarily his decision making or the timing?
VTCALS72 • 01/23/26 12:16 PM ET
How about the decision to hire Chris Marve, which part of Marve looked like
icelus • 01/23/26 02:59 PM ET
Tough to hire when you're on the hot seat, Bowen bailed cause he knew IMO**
TekkNerd • 01/23/26 02:20 PM ET
sounds like ANYONE would have been better than Monty. **
AnotherTechW • 01/23/26 12:45 PM ET
Monty was never going to work out as our OC. His scheme didn’t fit
Zanderhokie • 01/23/26 02:15 PM ET
I suspect Pry didn't have many options and WB was probably happy to have
goodbadugly • 01/23/26 12:07 PM ET
I think they'll definitely get better.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/23/26 10:30 AM ET
IMHO, Depends on how well we run the Ball this year. Good raw materials…
HoakieBS • 01/23/26 03:38 PM ET
I expect pass protection to be much better and not just because of OL
Jwunderdog • 01/23/26 11:07 AM ET
I think there is a difference in a "checkdown" receiver and a "hot" receive
VTCALS72 • 01/23/26 12:23 PM ET
I very much appreciate your take on Grunk...
BuffaloTraceHokie • 01/23/26 10:58 AM ET
There you go. Agree with all, especially last paragraph
Burke Hokie • 01/23/26 12:16 PM ET
We'll have a good enough rushing attack to take care of that side of...
