I expect our new staff to get us ready and have a great year.

Most of the teams we play have first year or two experience HC's and a plethora of new assistants. Lots of star players from our opponents got drafted or even left via the portal therefore I see an even playing field with us having the advantage with higher quality and experienced coaches. For example Strong was a hot item head coach recently, Gattis and others are HC material. What staff in the ACC matches our quality? Even Clemson had massive changes...

Clemson changes

I am optimistic based on these items plus Mario did not inherit a bare cupboard and is adding the right elements. Last year opening with Alabama was a disaster for us, this year we get the first two games to prep for Texas A&M plus A&M was 8-4 where they almost lost to Colorado winning 10-7 and lost to Arkansas, Miss St, Ole Miss, and LSU. Sure they recruit well but Jimbo got worse each year at FSU and left them a basket case. Our two toughest opponents are Clemson and ourselves. Winning is a habit, we need that habit back that got us 58 straight wins in the OB.

This also means teams we used to write off have a better chance of beating us. There is the possibility that we beat a team like Clemson and lose to a team like Virginia or VT.

A veteran QB makes a big difference... sometimes we need someone who can pull a rabbit out of the hat on a last drive.. TVD has proven he can

Yes. Until he doesn’t. Both were proven last season.

No doubt, this has been our way of doing business for the past several years. I would hope that with the top tier staff Mario has put together, they can coach-up the team so as to avoid these letdowns. Time will tell….

I don’t see much changing in year 1, but after a couple of off seasons and putting their guys in place, we could see a turnaround.
