Welp, at least basketball season is around the corner.

46...we have a lot of recruits at this game tonight. So...thoughts on their thoughts? How bad is this game hurting our chances?

 

[mad4comp]

Hey look more screen and swing passes.. Loeffler you dumb turd..

 

[Sleepy T]

Has to be, IMO

I agree. It just isn't working. What was his contract? Only. 2 or 3 years wasn't it?

Wins and losses don't really impact recruits as much as fans think but getting hammered can't help. A lot will depend on how the coaching thing goes down.

 

[HokieChamp]

Think we will score tonight?

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Virginia Tech has 70 total yards right now.



70.

No chance.

 

[VTscores]

VT works harder than any team I've ever seen to get the ball to the line of scrimmage.

 

[757Hokie83]

Bench brewer. For good.

 

[HokieChamp]

No chance.

So what you're saying is I have a better chance of winning the lottery, getting struck by lightning, contracting ebola, and solving the Hodge conjecture at the same time than VT has of scoring tonight?

46, wtf happened between the OSU game and now. Or is OSU that fucking bad.

Yep!

They hit on all cylinders that night and had a greta game plan. Virginia Tech doesn't lack talent. They lack game plan, urgency and discipline.

OK, Brewer hasn't been the superstar we'd want, but to be honest this loss isn't his fault.

He's played with terrible field position all game. The game plan just didn't work in the first half because of that. Miami got a few really great breaks in the first half, and this shoestring offense doesn't allow for that. You can't use running plays from behind your goal post. We're lucky not to have added a safety from back there.

 

[VTscores]

Why is Duke Johnson still in the game?

Golden is being a jerk.

Dumbass.

So pretty much a new coaching staff?

Do you think Beamer leaving would be a good thing for recruiting this class?? Depends on the new head coach?? What about if Bud leaves.. How does that impact recruiting?? Loeffler??

I say push, yes, bad, and good.

 

[HokieChamp]

Alright, so different question now...a few years ago rumors swirled about the suspected hire of Ralph Friedgen as an OC or other support staff. Think he's out of the game for good?

 

[757Hokie83]

Miami has more fans in lane than at their home games.

Wishing no harm on duke, but if he is hurt, it serves golden right.
