If we don't improve drastically on O, he may go and take Pry with him->

My ideal scenario is that Bowen DOES turn out to be a good OC and the offense shows 180 turnaround... I really DO like and support Pry, but if his offense sucks again this season, SOMEBODY is going to get blisters on their ass from the heat of the seat... Pry won't have a choice but to dump Bowen, or risk his OWN job....IMO

NokieHokie • 03/05/23 10:25 AM ET
Rogers never coached QBs until he started coaching QBs.
1980VT • 03/05/23 11:32 AM ET
Yeah, but again he had 19 yrs of QB experience when VT hired him. He was QB
NokieHokie • 03/05/23 11:48 AM ET
Bowen as qb coach pretty much guarantees you bottom 5 offense again **

ND culture is DIFFERENT than VT
