Something I’m noticing uva fans do not realize
W the current state of cfb a coach can have success and leave for more money and take his players with him. Schools no longer need to wait years for a team to be competitive after hiring a coach. For example, Curt Cignetti.
UVA fans are quick to point out tech hired a coach who was fired. Well judging by all the 4 star kids committing this week it’s obvious what is happening. The difference between PSU and tech is that tech will be happy w the type of success Franklin had at PSU.
Will Franklin be able to actually coach ? Time will tell. I’d bet money tech is quickly a 8 to 9 win team by 2027. Is he going to win it all at Tech ? Better chance of a snowball in hell.
UVA fans criticism of Franklin hire reminds me of their inability to understand the portal when it started. That first portal year Tech players left the program left and right, uva fans not having foresight assumed this would only happen to teams w poor culture, coaching, etc. Well look how that turned out for the entirety of CFB.
I’m actually glad uva gets to taste some success this year, it’ll be that much better to watch their misery when they start struggling again next year.

UVa has money. Money is far more important now than it was a decade ago.
