  1. Virginia Tech Postgame

    Nothing wrong that a few wins won't cure along with a couple of high profile recruiting commitments. That said, the hype and culture change will only go so far. Sooner or later Coach Collins has to start winning some games. He has a good opportunity to show his stuff on Thursday. Win...
  2. Virginia Tech Postgame

    Parker Braun and Brandon would make a difference for sure but Virginia Tech lost some players as well. We did not just beat them last year we boat raced them. Beating Virginia Tech and We beat them last year. We looked as bad as we have looked all year against the same team. Seems...
  3. It’s Yates Time...period

    No doubt about it. He moves the team play him. Yates has earned the chance to show what he can do. Maybe he can motivate the line to block someone for a change.
  4. Virginia Tech Postgame

    We beat this team with many of the same players last year on both teams. Nothing fake about that.
  5. Virginia Tech vs. Georgia Tech Predictions #VTvsGT

    Something like that. Started out as 6.5, may have gone up or down a notch. I don't keep up with betting lines so someone else would have more up to date information.
  6. Virginia Tech vs. Georgia Tech Predictions #VTvsGT

    I picked Virginia Tech by a couple of touchdowns. They have a shot at the Coastal Division title and have played much better of late. Our chances will be better, in my opinion, if we see Patterson at quarterback instead of Hooker. Patterson is huge, a Logan Thomas clone so to speak, but...
  7. Virginia Postgame

    After reviewing the play over and over, personally I think USF was jobbed but Miami, well, being Miami they would have found some creative way to lose that game and beat a ranked team the next week. It is what they do and I don't feel sorry for them in the slightest. A case can be made we...
  8. What are the rational reasons we will beat VT?

    Respectfully, I must disagree. They were able to stand toe to toe with Notre Dame and beat Wake Forest which I don't think our team could do right now. However, I was NOT impressed with their quarterback that played in the Notre Dame game, not Hooker the other one. He was big and strong but...
  9. What are the rational reasons we will beat VT?

    Not really, other than coming off our best performance of the year in a losing cause. I watched some of Virginia Tech and Notre Dame and they made a believer out of me. Notre Dame just pounded UVA but Virginia Tech was right there with them until the Irish got several questionable calls go...

    Good for him. I need to drop a few pounds myself to help with my blood pressure.
  11. Geoff Collins - Head Coaching Numbers

    Really? I never would have guessed we finished in the top 25 in a 25 year period 10 times. That is actually pretty good all things considered. Not Florida or FSU mind you but still pretty nifty.

    I think he is pulling your chain with this by exaggerating.
  13. Geoff Collins - Head Coaching Numbers

    You should not have told me, some of the wise guys would have figured it out. I was just too lazy. I knew Frank had a checkered career early on. I wonder what he would say was the turning point or if there was one. I know that the offensive coordinator and Coach Foster were with him for...

    In his ghostwritten autobiography, Dodd said that those years were the worst of this coaching career. He was depressed at the lack of support from the Hill, he was enduring substandard recruiting classes, and seriously entertained the idea of pursuing the job at Texas. His wife, Alice said he...

    I give up who is it? What I would do is expand the curriculum, fire the president, devote every dollar I had to recruiting, enhance fan game day experience, and hire George P. Burdell as football coach for life.

    It is the FSU model. Who knows, maybe it will work for them.
  17. Geoff Collins - Head Coaching Numbers

    Commitments are one thing, signings are something else again. When it comes to Tech and recruiting success I am from Missouri...show me.
  18. Geoff Collins - Head Coaching Numbers

    We have not been a consistent top 25 PROGRAM as perceived by unbiased observers since the O'Leary days I would surmise and even then it was kind of fringe and certainly not factory like year after year of top recruiting classes, conference championships, and New Year's Day bowls. We will...
  19. Geoff Collins - Head Coaching Numbers

    I guess I agree with this. Its one thing to lose to an FCS team, it is another to lose to one that lost to Samford and is considered mediocre or worse. Worst loss in the last 30 years? Probably to a neutral observer.

    My condolences to you and the Tigers. Better days lie ahead for those that keep working to improve.
