So, Chris Coleman sent me a text message earlier this week and asked me if I was willing to write an article giving my early assessment of the new offensive coaches hired last week. Obviously, I agreed. In truth, I was thrilled he asked as I have fielded many questions from my fellow Hokie friends about my thoughts and opinions and my answers have been so disorganized and “from the hip” that this article is a welcome opportunity to organize my thoughts and give some coherent answers.
First: a little background information. In the weeks leading up to the announcement of Loeffler, Grimes and Moorehead, I spent some time on the TSL message boards trying to reassure my fellow Hokies to be patient and allow Coach Beamer to make thorough decisions. I also tried to illuminate the hiring process from what I believed was Beamer’s perspective.
