Never. The VT OC has and I guess always will be persona non grata

to the vast majority of all Hokie fans. And the reason for their dislike has been and will always be "terrible play calling" Not execution, design or sequencing - just "play calling." IIWII Maybe it's like that everywhere. I honestly don't know. Stiney's kids getting bullied in school after losses was the most embarrassing example I can think of but there are others I'm sure.

Has this board EVER liked our OC?
whatIpostlike • 11/22/22 09:44 AM ET
NO**
Nelsonia Hokie • 11/22/22 05:25 PM ET
Rickey Bustle was pretty good...
Techsupport • 11/22/22 03:15 PM ET
The VT "fans" in my section wanted to get rid of him. People on
HokieEngineer • 11/23/22 09:54 PM ET
in 98 we played several games with our free safety at QB...can't help
Vienna_Hokie • 11/22/22 04:45 PM ET
That free safety was a QB in HS... a pretty good one too!**
Windows NT • 11/22/22 06:24 PM ET
College defenses are littered with great HS QBs..few by choice
Vienna_Hokie • 11/23/22 10:15 AM ET
I think the best WRs got hurt in 98 too. No speed or deep threat.**
HokieinATL07 • 11/22/22 05:01 PM ET
This would be a good poll, rank VT OCs.**
WilmaHokie • 11/22/22 01:22 PM ET
Has this OC given a reason to like him as a play caller?**
97Hokie • 11/22/22 01:17 PM ET
We liked Mike Vick's improvising. That's about the best I can remember.**
HokieinATL07 • 11/22/22 12:48 PM ET
Even Beamer joked about it.
FrederickHokie • 11/22/22 05:40 PM ET
That's the quote I was remembering actually.**
HokieinATL07 • 11/22/22 08:11 PM ET
Scott Loeffler was the Worst
Hokdawg • 11/22/22 12:40 PM ET
But he was best man in Tom Brady's wedding!?!?
bluehokie • 11/23/22 05:13 PM ET
Not even close...**
NokieHokie • 11/22/22 12:55 PM ET
nah. Bowen is the worst and Corn is next**
Windows NT • 11/22/22 12:47 PM ET
Bowen needs at least another year to qualify, before he can be considered
FLKEYSHOKIE • 11/22/22 09:56 PM ET
I think people have a warped perception of Cornelson...
Techsupport • 11/22/22 04:35 PM ET
Corn doesn't like to be challenged by any QB. That is a D- **
Windows NT • 11/22/22 06:22 PM ET
Forget about Stiney?**
hokierevisionist • 11/22/22 03:48 PM ET
Stiney was bad, but not at the level of Corn and Bowen**
Windows NT • 11/22/22 06:18 PM ET
Stiney had damn good talent...and did nothing with it....
hokierevisionist • 11/22/22 09:10 PM ET
yeah he sure did... and was named top 3 OC in the country by CBS Sports
Windows NT • 11/22/22 09:47 PM ET
Only the TV show**
UberHOKIE • 11/22/22 11:56 AM ET
LMAO nice! :)**
NokieHokie • 11/22/22 12:55 PM ET
Does any board ever like their OC? Worst job in football. Best? Backup QB.**
marcbvtgm • 11/22/22 11:36 AM ET
briefly- after UVA's Tackle Eligible Play **
bigbadbird • 11/22/22 11:31 AM ET
In 1999, we led the nation in scoring offense and we ran bustle out of town**
mvick • 11/22/22 11:24 AM ET
Did we fire him?
crazylane • 11/22/22 06:28 PM ET
He lost the Battle in Merryman with Bud.
TomTurkey • 11/22/22 07:04 PM ET
The day they lost to SU at home. If
HokiePail • 11/23/22 03:35 AM ET
Was that the OC or Vick?**
NokieHokie • 11/22/22 12:56 PM ET
Never liked the OC and the Backup QB should have been started!**
83hokieee • 11/22/22 11:19 AM ET
Nope. And it's just not just VT. 80% of CFB fans hate their OC
NOFX • 11/22/22 11:18 AM ET
Where was this post during the season? **
97Hokie • 11/22/22 11:13 AM ET
That would have been 99% against, and 1% for our current O-coordinator.**
EDGEMAN • 11/22/22 01:26 PM ET
3 wins and never scored 30 pts in a game. Whether we'll be fine is TBD**
hokeyhokie • 11/22/22 10:56 AM ET
The whole staff had been here 10 months and walked into a team
fordham • 11/22/22 11:08 AM ET
You forgot about our riches at RB **
crazylane • 11/22/22 06:27 PM ET
Never. The VT OC has and I guess always will be persona non grata ◄
bluehokie • 11/22/22 10:47 AM ET
Bullied in school. Lol. I remember
HokiePail • 11/23/22 03:41 AM ET
All of your Jet Sweep are belong to US**

"We have no chance to survive. Make our time!"**
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/22/22 11:26 AM ET
"We have seen the enemy and they are us."**
TomTurkey • 11/22/22 01:17 PM ET
The question is when have we had a dynamic high scoring offense
PF • 11/22/22 10:43 AM ET
That 99 team had talent
crazylane • 11/22/22 06:32 PM ET
But is that dynamic offense the best way to win at VT?
VTCALS72 • 11/22/22 12:22 PM ET
Ask Saban… who transitioned to a modern dynamic offense….**
Brewing_Hokie • 11/22/22 01:02 PM ET
Actually, dynamic offenses are the way to overcome talent deficiencies...**
NokieHokie • 11/22/22 12:57 PM ET
Think Wake
crazylane • 11/22/22 06:37 PM ET
Bingo!**
NokieHokie • 11/22/22 10:23 PM ET
Good grief **
PF • 11/22/22 12:35 PM ET
I don't really feel that logic is applicable.
TekkNerd • 11/22/22 10:39 AM ET
Corny liked that first year with Evans**
Happy Dog • 11/22/22 10:28 AM ET
find me a post from the wayback machine proving anyone like Corny **
whatIpostlike • 11/22/22 10:32 AM ET
Most fans liked his 1st year results in 2016
MaryWashGrad • 11/22/22 10:47 AM ET
It’s VT football culture, defense gets free pass and offense is step child**
ombandit • 11/22/22 10:27 AM ET
No. The two least liked professions are Proctologist and OC.**
HokieJay • 11/22/22 10:18 AM ET
Definitely not since Stiney was appointed!
RJHokie • 11/22/22 10:11 AM ET
The run game's been sorta ok. maybe they need different players in the
6thStreetHokie • 11/22/22 10:08 AM ET
Ricky Bustle?**
BamBam • 11/22/22 10:03 AM ET
Rickey (with an e) was responsible for the 1998 Syracuse game.
Will StewartAdmin • 11/22/22 12:54 PM ET
The game our O scored 10, D&ST scored 16**
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/22/22 10:29 PM ET
We'll have to disagree here.
Gobbler Guru • 11/22/22 01:06 PM ET
this --> "and light years better than anyone who has followed him in..."**
Windows NT • 11/22/22 06:38 PM ET
Think about those names you mentioned
hokieone • 11/22/22 01:19 PM ET
I personally liked Ricky Bustle. But not a fan of anyone since.**
Maroon Baboon • 11/22/22 12:28 PM ET
Revisionist history. He was run out of town **
fordham • 11/22/22 11:10 AM ET
He left a coordinator job for a HC job. That's not being "run out of town"
Gobbler Guru • 11/22/22 01:02 PM ET
He lost the Battle in Merryman against Foster
TomTurkey • 11/22/22 04:34 PM ET
We didn't like him either. We're a fickle bunch.**
vtfanuvalaw • 11/22/22 10:57 AM ET
that's a myth... we only liked him after he left **
whatIpostlike • 11/22/22 10:06 AM ET
Exactly!**
Happy Dog • 11/22/22 10:28 AM ET
Yep**
TomTurkey • 11/22/22 10:11 AM ET
Thanks! Good post!**
