James Franklin VT

[BeastMode]

Exactly where he should go. No huge expectations similar to Vandy. Can recruit and develope and maybe win 10 games.

 

[BeastMode]

He was the perfect fit for Auburn.

No VT is the fit for him. SEC will eat him alive

 

[HurricanesR1]

They're in talks, basically their next HC

That's a **** good hire for VT. **** good hire.

 

[miami_yak]

They've been in talks for a while. I think either VT put this out publicly to apply pressure on him to make a decision or Franklin's side made it public to pressure other colleges to make a decision on their coaching situation because he's more interested in them.

 

[MedleyCane]

He was the perfect fit for Auburn.

That program is a ShtShow. It has been for years and it will never change as long as the other program in Tuscaloosa is doing the football thingie. I don't think Franklin wants any of that nonsense.

 

[CTCANE]

Not official, can definitely not happen

 

[nycane]

Good hire for the acc

 

[JHallCanes]

He’s going to do a good job there if it happens

Penn St is in the middle of nowhere with no real recruiting advantages. Don’t do much NIL. It’s a miracle they’ve been as good as they are for this long

I expect a lot of “path to the ACCCG” November threads that hinge on VT losing games in the future

 

[Torocane]

Interesting. I figured he would go to school with more of a guarantee NIL commitment.

I think this is what VT is going to offer.

sad thing is some of yall want to see that just to prove

I hope that's not the case.

 

[BoxingRobes]

If VaTech puts some money behind him, they'll be back as a conference contender.

 

[grover]

VT about to cross the River Jordan. Incredible get for them. Now can they compete in NIL? If yes, they are going to be a tough out in a couple of years.

 

[Supacane954]

VT needs to wait on Beamer!

 

[Supacane954]

Then Franklin Needs to wait on South Carolina !

 

[Angry Ibis]

He’ll win the ACC before Wario does.

In before VT is poor, the resources will only be committed to Franklin and he’s the only coach that can win there

 

[SPFRcane]

sad thing is some of yall want to see that just to prove a narrative

Is it a narrative at this point or is it prove me wrong?

 

[filmcane]

Perfect spot for them and him. He'll make them better and might even have a top 10 season while he's there. He will stack the team with talent and if the guy that comes after him is a closer, that following coach could have a great first year.

Anyway, he'll be good for VT and good for the ACC.

he would be the best recruiter in the conference (yes including Mario)
