First time OC? Don't like the sound of that.**

We're already throwing rocks at the OC? Sheesh.**
Snape ā€¢ 07/20/26 04:25 PM ET
At least most of our throws are inaccurate.

I'll say it again: when you have the wrong people in positions, criticism

So then why is it ALWAYS the OC & AD ? **

It ainā€™t VT if we arenā€™t already talking about firing the OC**

We've been screaming that we need some Jimmy's and Joe's to make it go.

True. But why should WE be the ones who get the bad/learning years?
HokieNL ā€¢ 07/20/26 01:37 PM ET
Maybe because we fired last year's staff? Just sayin.**
seacain ā€¢ 07/20/26 08:43 PM ET
Franklin has stated he will be hands on. He will die on his own sword. **
IronHokie ā€¢ 07/20/26 11:33 AM ET
Heā€™s been a co-OC for 5 years

Okay, that makes feel a little better about it**

The "convoluted" Bill O'Brien won National Coach of the Year at PSU
marcbvtgm ā€¢ 07/20/26 09:54 AM ET
They could have hired him back.
VaTechHokiesACC ā€¢ 07/20/26 01:10 PM ET
They could have not fired Franklin too. What's your point?**
marcbvtgm ā€¢ 07/20/26 02:31 PM ET
Obrian left due to internal crap with PSU
1947Sunbowl ā€¢ 07/20/26 10:17 AM ET
Same concerns here. Too many echoes of Stinespring, Cornelson
n2beaches ā€¢ 07/20/26 09:18 AM ET
Tyler Bowen is the (major) echo...from the name to the profile...

HokieNL ā€¢ 07/20/26 01:58 PM ET
It's not automatic that there will be bad years.
Chris ColemanAdmin ā€¢ 07/21/26 11:41 AM ET
It's kind of a crap shoot, though. VT Football is like Forrest Gump.

Exactly right. Too much is made of this.

Plus, by hiring Pry, Franklin now has access to all of Brent's game notes.
