It'll be interesting to see what he does eligibility-wise in the future. He's a fifth-year senior now, but after sitting out the COVID year entirely (rather than participating and taking advantage of the eligibility freeze), it wouldn't surprise me if he had two years remaining, should he want to take advantage.

My prediction's in the story. What do you expect?

2021 Virginia Tech Hokies football preview: Syracuse

Hokies didn't fall at all, much less as far as some on here might have expected:

Rivals #ACCPoll: Hokies steady in sixth despite setback

Here's my ballot:

Wake
Pitt
NC State
Clemson
Georgia Tech
BC
Virginia Tech
UVa
Louisville
UNC
Florida State
Miami
Cuse
Duke

I think this is probably the most underrated kid in the class right now (which I was not expecting to say when I started taking the in-depth look at his game):

From the film room: Malachi Madison

He's going to be a little down the list when it comes to offers, but wouldn't surprise me if he eventually landed one:

Luke Baklenko makes a cross-country trip to check out the Hokies

His mom coaches volleyball at Washington, so it would not surprise me if Pacific Northwest teams were hard to beat (should they offer).

Hokies should be poised for a big year on the hardcourt...

Keve Aluma named preseason All-ACC, second in preseason POTY predictions

6'8", ~225+ PF Amani Hansberry out of Mount St. Joe's in Baltimore (recent transfer from St. John's College in Washington, DC) is scheduling an official visit with the Hokies. Date is unknown.

Hansberry has also scheduled visits with Pittsburgh, NC State, and Tennessee.

Class of 2023.

Hokies will consider all players that help consolidate recruiting power in the region a bit:

Should be an interesting one...

Three observations, two questions raised, and one prediction after Saturday's disappointment:

The Hokie Haven 3-2-1: Pittsburgh

What say you?

We can gripe and complain about the demise of a once proud program or we can do something about it. Tech football, which really was responsible for the growth of the University, has been relegated to the bottom half of a weak ACC division and is being surpassed by UVA, WF, Pitt, etc. Personally I think it is time to start over, suck it up for a few years while someone builds the program up from scratch, and just live with the embarrassment and hope we catch lightning in a bottle like another MV7.

If it is about the money to buyout Fuente, there are 13,000 Hokie Club members. If each one would simply make a onetime contribution of $800, that’s $10.4 million and Fuente is gone.

How does a guy win a national championship just a few years ago potentially get fired today? I don’t understand rhyme or reason.

Next question, if they fire a coach who wins a national championship just a few years ago based on last year (COVID related or not) and this years results, what’s keeping Fuente here and why? Tim can you explain the differences with culture and AD’s vision and scope compared to ours?

I’ll be listening to Burnop take a breath and smack his lips and help Fuente not feel so bad. Is it me or does he set the groundwork for the excuses.
talking about evaluating everything atm. Thought Fuente was going to do that after the Richmond game.
Just tired of this product we see on offense each and every week and sit back and see that absolutely nobody is held accountable even though they mention accountability. This staff is not good at following through on anything that I have seen over the years. Name one? So I’m anxious to hear what the head man has to say

Inasmuch as there were any:
