I’ve thought about this for awhile now. Pry

Is going to be the guy. Foster stamped approved. The only way to explain that loss were players just weren’t ready for the game, or coached to be ready. Idk. First game. Idk how you could explain all the penalties. Came always at pivotal moments it seemed. Pry is legit, I just don’t understand the penalties. The game came down to one play. Kick a field goal and add 3 pts, shoot it over a guys head for odu touchdown is a 10 point swing. Is that coaching…no, maybe but really. I’ve played in games, it’s almost impossible to do that at this level I would think. Not to mention the penalty before that led to a field goal try instead of a touchdown. Very weird game. If we straighten up this stuff we beat ODU easily. We should also get the W against BC if we play a clean game. Feel bad for the deep snapper on the team…aim low.

Bottom line, the team thought they could win simply by showing up.
HokieToph • 09/08/22 11:28 AM ET
Sloppy? Yes. But I don't agree at all with your basic premise.
marcbvtgm • 09/08/22 03:12 PM ET
See the LSU game. Sloppy play and lots of mistakes and penalties and big

hokieone • 09/08/22 09:45 AM ET
Yeah we all should have known it was going to get worse first.

New systems, coaches, qb

I'm more concerned VT is still competing with ODU for recruits. I hope to
hokeyhokie • 09/08/22 07:15 AM ET
What recruits are we losing to ODU?**
VaTechHokiesACC • 09/08/22 07:19 PM ET
I'm not particularly concerned about VT's recruiting vs ODU**
marcbvtgm • 09/08/22 03:14 PM ET
By losing to ODU, our VA recruiting suffered a setback
EDGEMAN • 09/08/22 07:37 AM ET
If adversity bothers, why would you want them?**
VaTechHokiesACC • 09/08/22 07:20 PM ET
Or they know they get playing time quickly **
fordham • 09/08/22 10:28 AM ET
hmmmm i disagree - most assume an opportunity to play
bigbadbird • 09/08/22 09:09 AM ET
They aren't going to ODU, they're heading out of state.**
EDGEMAN • 09/08/22 09:15 AM ET
you only need to get one or two to turn the tide **
bigbadbird • 09/08/22 09:28 AM ET
Exactly, so why reduce the pool who might come to VT
EDGEMAN • 09/08/22 09:30 AM ET
i don't think that happened- i i think this year's team will be ok
bigbadbird • 09/08/22 09:51 AM ET
don't forget how good JMU looked this weekend either**
6thStreetHokie • 09/08/22 08:44 AM ET
True, but I still feel 4 and 5 star Virginia recruits rather go to a

VTCALS72 • 09/08/22 09:53 AM ET
And where would that be
VTBird541 • 09/08/22 09:00 AM ET
Well that is not going to change no matter who we beat
fordham • 09/08/22 10:32 AM ET
I got off the FU bandwagon when he lost to ODU…
VPI63 • 09/08/22 01:03 AM ET
Then you will prob not be happy for a long time **
fordham • 09/08/22 10:34 AM ET
The difference being Fu’s loss to ODU was his 30th game as Techs head coach
Hokie1992 • 09/08/22 07:33 AM ET
Yep. Our 2 losses at ODU occurred in very different circumstances
Zanderhokie • 09/08/22 10:36 AM ET
anybody writing coach off after first game needs a reality check**
hokietom87 • 09/08/22 07:24 AM ET
The reality is …
VPI63 • 09/08/22 03:51 PM ET
Fu lost my support after his ODU loss. It wasn't as much that we lost...
EDGEMAN • 09/08/22 06:49 AM ET
Love Bud. But he also courted, stamped and approved Fuente....**
NoHuddle • 09/08/22 12:06 AM ET
Bud is on record saying Fu wasn’t a good fit**
AirForceHokie77 • 09/08/22 09:15 AM ET
Heck of a sales job by Fuente.**
NoHuddle • 09/08/22 09:27 AM ET
Except when it came to Virginia HS players.**
EDGEMAN • 09/08/22 09:31 AM ET
And later on our own players.**
NoHuddle • 09/08/22 09:40 AM ET
when did he say that? If so, why did he stick around after his D went
reestuart • 09/08/22 09:26 AM ET
As did everybody. It was an A+ hire at the time.
Techsupport • 09/08/22 08:21 AM ET
Yours truly included. Completely bambuzzled @ the start.**
