Nah pretty clear to all, coaches couldn’t bring out his best.
It’s that simple. When students struggle to learn you don’t blame the students you go straight to the teachers. That’s the way it works. The buck stops with the staff end of story.
Hooker is easily one of the grandest failures of the many from the FuCorn regime.
You should probably listen to more former players and folks tied to the program instead of making up what you want to believe to be true because you have some reason to constantly defend the staff that destroyed a program.
The offensive “GURUS” failed to develop a single QB, drove the 2 best off, and left the O with literally NOTHING in the cupboard.
Cmon, this isn’t rocket science. They stunk in the end for VT. And they also packed it in for a year or two after it was clear they were on the chopping block.
Again not about what we think or want to believe, this is from folks that know much better than we. The last regime was awful for this program and left it in shambles that will now take years to correct.
There’s nothing to defend. UT provided the coaching a rising star needed, and FuCorn did not. And because of those two he was never going to success here.
End of story.

I'm happy for Hendon, he's finally getting good coaching and playcalling.

He’s also now and older player, instead of being younger when he was here.
