I don't know if you're a subscriber here or on VTScoop.....

If you aren't your stance makes sense. If you are then I would only assume you missed the posts. Key people that are in the know and are usually spot on have posted updates, and based on their track record in the past I trust what they're saying. I didn't know I was on the free board when I made the post, and I'm not going to give you any more supporting info or evidence to support my original post, because I don't divulge pay content on the free side.

The clear objective for our next coach, is to hire someone that makes VT...
toddhager • 11/10/25 07:59 PM ET
Unless something very unusual happens, that ship has already sailed for VT
VTCALS72 • 11/11/25 07:20 AM ET
"get more stable, get better then get better." excellent way of stating it.**
radhokie1 • 11/11/25 08:28 AM ET
Yep, step by step and not leaps and bounds.**
VTCALS72 • 11/11/25 10:26 AM ET
Franklin is clearly the coach needed. **
OlderHokie • 11/10/25 10:19 PM ET
Which is why Franklin would be a mistake VT would never recover from.**
marcbvtgm • 11/10/25 09:02 PM ET
Completely Disagree
ForgeHokie • 11/11/25 09:37 AM ET
A bunch of assumptions based on wishful thinking, not evidence.**
marcbvtgm • 11/11/25 12:04 PM ET
So you're "assuming" 12 wins at Holy Cross (Chesney) > 12 wins at PSU?
Techsupport • 11/11/25 02:53 PM ET
I assume 17-30 vs top 25 in a 15 yr career doesn't translate to 10 Ws at VT
marcbvtgm • 11/11/25 07:28 PM ET
Respectfully, the ACC is much easier than the B1G
CPVT3 • 11/12/25 12:19 AM ET
Respectfully, the ACC is harder for VT than the B1G for PSU.**
marcbvtgm • 11/12/25 10:29 AM ET
I disagree
CPVT3 • 11/12/25 07:37 PM ET
Big assumption. **
Techsupport • 11/11/25 09:05 PM ET
...and (17-30 top 25)-(4-21 top 10)= 13-9 vs #11-#25. Not too shabby.**
Techsupport • 11/12/25 10:14 AM ET
13-9 vs #11-25 isn't particularly good. Beamer was 44-28 w/ VT resources.**
marcbvtgm • 11/12/25 10:34 AM ET
You realize that's <1 game (0.44 games) separating them. Just sayin'**
Techsupport • 11/12/25 02:32 PM ET
If he's gone in 5 because he did a great job, awesome!**
Happy Dog • 11/11/25 11:19 AM ET
I would support JF if chosen, but I agree that he is not best choice for VT
HokieAl • 11/10/25 09:49 PM ET
Who's the guy with the track record doing what JF apparently cant do?
Techsupport • 11/11/25 12:06 AM ET
Well, for starters, he's 17-30 vs top 25 teams. And why bail out PSU?**
marcbvtgm • 11/11/25 09:07 AM ET
I agree
crazylane • 11/11/25 09:05 AM ET
Apparently? He was fired not apparently fired**
UberHOKIE • 11/11/25 12:19 AM ET
Transpose JF PSU record to VT, and he's the toast of the town. Good grief.
Techsupport • 11/11/25 02:57 PM ET
Thank you, sanity.**
CPVT3 • 11/12/25 12:21 AM ET
It's not that simple...and they don't build statues for 17-30 vs top 25.**
marcbvtgm • 11/11/25 06:58 PM ET
Who. Is. Your. Guy? Lol...
Techsupport • 11/11/25 08:58 PM ET
I've answered that question already.**
marcbvtgm • 11/12/25 10:42 AM ET
That's the objective**
1947Sunbowl • 11/10/25 08:06 PM ET
BTW, convinced that Franklin is the man we need to do it and do it quickly**
toddhager • 11/10/25 08:01 PM ET
Why? He was fired for not doing a good job at a more 'relevent' program
UberHOKIE • 11/10/25 09:40 PM ET
Losing mostly to Michigan and Ohio State **
HokiesACC2004 • 11/12/25 12:40 AM ET
And MSU before they imploded. And Oregon last yr. And UCLA & NW this yr!
marcbvtgm • 11/12/25 10:46 AM ET
I think it was a dumb firing. He was in the playoffs last year.**
CPVT3 • 11/12/25 12:22 AM ET
And yet again was 3rd in the B1G. Hit ceiling. Rinse and repeat.
marcbvtgm • 11/12/25 10:49 AM ET
Not sure what you see as the Hokies floor right now. There's lava
CPVT3 • 11/12/25 07:36 PM ET
"Not doing a good job". How do you even reply to statement like this...lol?**
Techsupport • 11/11/25 03:12 PM ET
Who's better? Name him. **
Techsupport • 11/11/25 02:59 PM ET
…Shane**
chumley • 11/11/25 05:38 PM ET
Based on what? **
Techsupport • 11/11/25 08:47 PM ET
Not doing a good job? He was one game away from the championship last year.
maroonhiker • 11/11/25 11:08 AM ET
PSU had an incredibly easy draw.**
marcbvtgm • 11/11/25 06:58 PM ET
Still had to win games to get there**
CPVT3 • 11/12/25 12:23 AM ET
They literally changed the rules because PSU got such an easy draw.**
marcbvtgm • 11/12/25 10:54 AM ET
Wasn't it because the conference champions had bye weeks?**
CPVT3 • 11/12/25 07:33 PM ET
His deal here would give him more money for a roster than OSU and Bama
TekkNerd • 11/11/25 08:28 AM ET
Huh? What planet are you living on?**
marcbvtgm • 11/11/25 09:08 AM ET
Per reports 30 million is more than they spend....
TekkNerd • 11/11/25 09:17 AM ET
Where are you getting that VT is going to spend $30M on its roster?**
marcbvtgm • 11/11/25 09:28 AM ET
Just realized I'm not on the subscriber board....
TekkNerd • 11/11/25 09:55 AM ET
So your facts are unattributed web wishful thinking based on no real info?
marcbvtgm • 11/11/25 12:06 PM ET
No, it's been reported by Trey Biddy at 247.
Techsupport • 11/11/25 03:05 PM ET
You believe what some guy on 247 says without an ounce of critical thought?
marcbvtgm • 11/11/25 07:11 PM ET
No, no, dont move the goal post...
Techsupport • 11/11/25 08:53 PM ET
Take about moving the goalposts..."exact number remains to be seen".
marcbvtgm • 11/12/25 10:57 AM ET
Well duh? We'll see if its true, but it ain't based on "wishful thinking"..
Techsupport • 11/12/25 02:20 PM ET
Whatever man....I told you what I heard.**
TekkNerd • 11/11/25 12:27 PM ET
No, you posted as though it was fact, not "what you heard".**
marcbvtgm • 11/11/25 07:29 PM ET
It is true.**
TekkNerd • 11/11/25 07:39 PM ET
Folks like you are exactly why agents plant BS stories
marcbvtgm • 11/12/25 10:37 AM ET
I don't know if you're a subscriber here or on VTScoop..... ◄

I liked "The RRKevent". Especially when the bear attacks Leonardo
