I don't think that not having a relationship with boosters and the media matters that much. Everything is forgiven and/or tolerated when you win. A coach just has to take care of his team, players and coaches, the rest is fluff. CF is doing a great job at VT. I've never seen recruiting and the transfer portal do as well. But it may take a few years for our program to build up to where he had it at PSU. There, he had great talent all thru the roster, including what most writers thought were the 2 best RBs in the country. Everything was finally in place for PSU to push OSU and Michigan aside. It didn't happen. The powers to be at PSU had a temper tantrum and fired a great coach that landed in our lap. CF and staff are working hard to build our program to be a power but a relationship with boosters and media is second to the team family.

Bring it on.

Add Penn State going 0-12 would be icing on the cake. This is my feelings with a pinch of sarcasm. ** Edited by VaTechie at 5/19/2026, 9:34:14 PM ** Edited by VaTechie at 5/19/2026, 9:34:44 PM

that they are so miffed is because they are worried.
