Why is JMU so good? They don’t recruit better than VT. **

I wouldn't say JMU is so good.
Maverick86 10/22/23 02:41 PM ET
JMU has always been DI in football since the NCAA created the 3 divisions
VTHokie2000 10/23/23 06:22 PM ET
Like upsets in the NCCA tourney over P5 schools
VaTechHokiesACC 10/22/23 10:39 PM ET
Curt Cignetti is just a good head coach
Zanderhokie 10/22/23 01:38 PM ET
G5 Schedule + Transfer Portal Success + FCS Success
GOML 10/22/23 12:56 PM ET
they do not play a P5 schedule**

^^This^^

Why is Duke so good starting from same point we did w a new coach
3TechFanz 10/22/23 09:55 AM ET
4/5 OLs were SRs, all 4 DL are SRs, 40+ SRs or above, & Leonard
vtlee 10/22/23 02:18 PM ET
Much like Syracuse's 1 good year in 2018, also caused lots of hand-wringing**
Synaesthesia 10/22/23 02:35 PM ET
We were way below where they were
VTCALS72 10/22/23 12:05 PM ET
Duke won a grand total of 5 games in the two years before he got there.
reestuart 10/22/23 01:41 PM ET
That is a red herring point of view.
VTCALS72 10/22/23 03:19 PM ET
He did a better job in portal than Brent did **
3TechFanz 10/22/23 12:45 PM ET
Jennings, Lane, Powell, Payne, Drones
VTCALS72 10/22/23 03:16 PM ET
Elko did in his first year no doubt **
VaTechHokiesACC 10/22/23 10:36 PM ET
I haven't looked, could be. Who did Elko get from year 1 TP
VTCALS72 10/23/23 08:04 AM ET
You haven't looked, but you have been asserting he inherited his players.
NokieHokie 10/23/23 03:04 PM ET
Coaching.
EDGEMAN 10/22/23 09:59 AM ET
they also have Trooper Taylor on Staff, one of the most notorious
kt22hokie 10/23/23 10:42 AM ET
Forget Duke and JMU
crazylane 10/22/23 10:19 AM ET
If Elko don't find a QB they are going to come back down to Earth.
Hokie_Forester 10/22/23 01:14 PM ET
I think they stay relevant as long as Elko is there...
EDGEMAN 10/22/23 10:25 AM ET
That was part of my good for a few years thinking**
crazylane 10/22/23 10:26 AM ET
Duke’s lack of depth showed when their qb got hurt. Coaching is good, but
Hokie`79 10/22/23 10:13 AM ET
If he's around next year, I'm sure he'll pull someone out of the portal**
EDGEMAN 10/22/23 10:16 AM ET
Yep. I know. Was being rhetorical. It’s sad isn’t it? **
3TechFanz 10/22/23 10:02 AM ET
I think we're finally starting to close the gap, starting with Pitt
EDGEMAN 10/22/23 10:06 AM ET
Yeah it’s crazy to think we could be 6-1 if offense installed 2 begin with **
3TechFanz 10/22/23 10:08 AM ET
Possible, but I wouldn't necessarily go that far.
EDGEMAN 10/22/23 10:18 AM ET
I'd hold off on good. They beat a UVA team that is bad, even after UNC they
Hokie_Forester 10/22/23 09:55 AM ET
It's been an impressive run
crazylane 10/22/23 10:16 AM ET
They’re going to win their conference. And not win it at same time **
3TechFanz 10/22/23 09:56 AM ET
Those are 2 different discussions
Vienna_Hokie 10/22/23 09:40 AM ET
If JMU did play a P5 schedule, then isn't it reasonable to assume their
VTHokie2000 10/23/23 06:27 PM ET
and IF a frog had wings he wouldn't bump his ass hopping
Vienna_Hokie 10/23/23 07:55 PM ET
They wouldn't beat the Hoo team that played last night.**
EDGEMAN 10/22/23 09:41 AM ET
They shouldn’t have beaten UVA anyway, the Hoos pissed that game away**
BROman Hokie 10/22/23 09:50 AM ET
So good? I think we're on par with them with the new T-Bo+ offense**
EDGEMAN 10/22/23 09:40 AM ET
The fact that you say you think we're as good as JMU
crazylane 10/22/23 10:25 AM ET
Last season, and our first 4 games of this season...
