Should be announcing a hire pretty soon (buyout holding things up)
OrangeHokieFan • 03/03/23 10:51 AM ET
Is the delay, resulting from delays from existing programs
Mercury • 03/06/23 10:29 AM ET
Thx for the advance info
HOKIEGOBBLE • 03/05/23 09:00 AM ET
Where does Holt move to as position coach? Or is he leaving too?**
vtox1 • 03/04/23 09:36 AM ET
Holt is moving to TEs. However I wish he would’ve left also
OrangeHokieFan • 03/04/23 09:43 AM ET
Exactly! Agree.**

vtox1 • 03/04/23 07:13 PM ET
Kevin Rogers was a LB in college
1980VT • 03/05/23 07:06 AM ET
Kevin Rogers was also a QB coach for 19 years prior to VT. He wasn't just
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 **
3TechFanz • 03/04/23 10:00 AM ET
Wow. You folks amaze me. Geez**
fordham • 03/06/23 10:55 AM ET

NokieHokie • 03/06/23 12:31 PM ET
Has he ever coached QBs? Not off base at all **
3TechFanz • 03/06/23 11:39 AM ET
I don’t see Bowen going anywhere…
SouthFLHokie • 03/04/23 04:04 PM ET
exactly its if Bowen is forced out Pry is out too
Mercury • 03/04/23 10:15 PM ET
If we don't improve drastically on O, he may go and take Pry with him->
HOKIERIT • 03/04/23 08:11 PM ET
Correct. He must have all of this hidden OC talent that only Pry sees or
Tombo • 03/04/23 07:25 PM ET
Bowen isn’t untouchable
OrangeHokieFan • 03/06/23 09:00 AM ET
It remains to be see if Pry isn't scared to replace peeps. Forgive me if I

For a year apparently. Pretty dang strong year **
3TechFanz • 03/04/23 05:02 PM ET
If I remember correctly, the full year as sole OC was at Fordham. His 1
Tombo • 03/04/23 08:32 PM ET
Fordham - the best intramural football program in NYC**
Durham Hokie • 03/07/23 03:01 PM ET
Yeah. I was speaking to his time with Pry. Only one year as far as I know **
3TechFanz • 03/04/23 09:13 PM ET

GusDaMan • 03/04/23 12:54 PM ET

Hokie PE • 03/03/23 10:54 AM ET

OrangeHokieFan • 03/03/23 11:55 AM ET

OrangeHokieFan • 03/03/23 08:16 PM ET
Wait, other schools have buyouts when their coaches leave? Unique.**
dolph • 03/03/23 12:20 PM ET
I was told there was a JR buyout
vtlee • 03/03/23 02:31 PM ET
They can have that clown and we got the $***
sacramento hokie • 03/03/23 05:46 PM ET
Clown?**
VT One • 03/03/23 07:06 PM ET
Did you see the oline he fielded last year?? Wisky didn’t try hard
sacramento hokie • 03/04/23 02:10 PM ET
I don't see any reason to insult the guy, however...
Techsupport • 03/06/23 09:05 AM ET
Excellent. I hope it was a big number $$$.**
dolph • 03/03/23 02:45 PM ET
Why get upset.. its the nature of contracts
Mercury • 03/04/23 08:21 AM ET
Hey Mercury. This is why I get a little upset.
dolph • 03/04/23 08:42 AM ET
How's that Karma thing working out for us so far dolph?....d'oh!**
HOKIERIT • 03/04/23 08:15 PM ET
That last paragraph is great. Well said.**
HwoodHokie • 03/04/23 12:35 PM ET
I have on good authority that’s EXACTLY what Bowen said. Lol. Love it
3TechFanz • 03/04/23 11:29 AM ET
Agreed.**

vtlee • 03/03/23 03:11 PM ET
until I see a legit citation, I'm assuming the rumors of no buyout for JR
GusDaMan • 03/03/23 12:53 PM ET
The truth throws enough shade. Not necessary to fabricate.**

TOUGH TURKEY • 03/03/23 10:53 AM ET

OrangeHokieFan • 03/03/23 11:18 AM ET

VT does have an issue attracting the kind of candidates some expect
VTCALS72 • 03/03/23 02:33 PM ET
Its not pecking order more complicated
Mercury • 03/03/23 04:12 PM ET
Those don't seem to be unreasonable demands in coaching in this day and age** ◄
HOKIERIT • 03/04/23 08:17 PM ET
What college coach these days gets a pass on high recruiting demands?**
marcbvtgm • 03/04/23 12:13 PM ET
Sure but it is a lot about who ND is and who we are
VTCALS72 • 03/03/23 04:18 PM ET
ND culture is DIFFERENT than VT
Mercury • 03/03/23 09:11 PM ET
As far as football goes, no because as you said, ND is national
VTCALS72 • 03/03/23 09:37 PM ET

eokhokie • 03/03/23 06:04 PM ET

Mercury • 03/04/23 09:57 AM ET
That didn't give him the right to not recruit. That's part of the job...**
