UPDATED 1/10/2013 10:30PM: Offensive coaching staff for next year

Don't forget Carlis Parker.

It is nothing more than a feeling, but I am about 70/30 that Logan leaves for a few reasons:

1. New OC coming in (this could go either way though).
2. Weak QB class could elevate him.
3. What if he comes back and has another bad year.
4. He apparently got a really good grade from the league.

I don't see how he would be anything better than a 3rd round pick after this year's performance. Thus, the best move would be to stay at VT.

OT thread, fellas.....

 

[VTfoozball]

The only reason I want LT to come back is so that Parker and Hodges can be redshirted. If he leaves I'd think they'd have to play 1 of the 2, probably Parker since he's coming in early

 

[BornaHokie]

If LT leaves it will be Leal, then Gresh . Don't forget Motley, this kid is a very very good athlete. I hope they are able to move him to safety, could be the next Cam.

yost is a good one too .. He's turned out some QBs at Mizzou
. Lots of good OC/QB coaches .. Hopefully we get a good one. I'd prefer our OC be the QB coach and have a dedicated OL coach

 

[hokiecat]

Any news over the weekend regarding the staff? I guess VT is leakproof.

Regarding LT, I think he is leaving just like 46 and 2. This is a terrible year for QBs. LT'll probably be a 2nd or 3rd rounder based upon the flashes of potential. And it is safer for him to leave and be drafted in the 2-3 range than it is to come back and (potentially) suck again and be a low round pick. I see him having less upside than risk if he returns.

Again, off topic to this thread, but I don't think there is any question that LT could use another year of game experience, in any system.

TSL starting a new rumor about interest in Bobo from UGA.

Doesn't make sense. He's a UGA alum and it would be a lateral move.

Anyways I'm guessing we will hear about changes in the next week. Possibly next 2 days.

#PEP4VTOC MT @auntshel: Rumors running rampant regarding #Hokies coaching changes. A source told me Pep Hamilton is headed to Blacksburg.

I generally trust TKP so I'm cautiously optimistic here.

Just a retweet

It seems like there is a very good chance that the two parties will meet at least

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

ZERO = the amount that I would put into this,

 

[sparko]

Yeah don't think it's done or even really started .. And may not really get started ... Long shot at this point I think

 

[Lumbee09]

Frank pretty much has a media blackout going on, so I won't feel confident about anything until it's announced. There is just a lot of smoke about Pep over the past couple of days. Hopefully we find out soon.

What are we going to talk about when this is done? Should we restart conference realignment rumors?

 

[hokiehi21]

Spring ball! lol. Signing day is in less than a month too.

 

[ACC_HOKIES]

For those so anxious to hear what's going to happen, don't be surprised if changes aren't made this early. It would be best to have everything break today, but previous hires and assignments have been after signing day. Here's hoping it's soon, but FYI,

Shane Beamer and Cornell Brown hired Feb 17, 2011. Hite and Cavanaugh reassigned.
Torrian Gray hired March 8, 2006. Lorenzo Ward left March 1.
Mike OCain hired Feb 24, 2006. Kevin Rogers left Jan 12, 2006.
Kurt Newsome hired Feb 24, 2006 Danny Pearman reassigned Feb 24, but left March 1.
Kevin Sherman hired Feb 24, 2006. Tony Ball left Feb 14.

To help keep the class intact...

Bruce Feldman just tweeted the following:

Hearing Stanford OC Pep Hamilton meeting w Va Tech today. It'd be a lateral move but VT may make substantial offer for more $$

It also appears that there is some buzz about news breaking out as early as this afternoon...

Fire Bryan Stinespring [FBS]

Comcast Mid-Atlantic is reporting a change at OC might be official as early as this afternoon.

Stay tuned.
