Bodes well for his ACC stint. Would expect VT to be at 9 wins minimum in a

couple of years. The ACC is not murderers row compared to the B10. I see opportunities to play and win multiple ACC titles in the near future!!!!

Beamer didn't have perennial top 10-15 classes though.**

The Franklin hire was pretty short sighted when you think about it...

Surely you jest??

I agree. Saban and Meyer were available. Is Don James still alive?**

He played Michigan and Ohio State when they were in the top 10 or better

You're grading VT on the PSU curve, not the VT curve.
marcbvtgm 07/01/26 11:19 AM ET
Eh, Mich ST or Iowa maybe**

At this point I just want a coach who wins games, period

If we get 7 Wins in the 2026 Regular Season, I'd count it as a solid plus.
HokieNL 07/01/26 12:07 PM ET
And it's the games against the mid level teams that get us to 10 wins
