"Tonight shows why Virginia Tech has to spend big now. #Hokies have fallen behind in so many ways while UVA has gotten things sorted out. Massive work for James Franklin and his staff. Gonna need a roster overhaul this offseason for VT to be competitive at the level they want to be next season"

"Significant news that Terry Smith will stay as an assistant at Penn State rather than potentially join James Franklin at Virginia Tech. Smith has notably never coached outside of PA and always seemed like a top retention candidate if he didnt get the full-time HC job"

"Unfortunate for Tulane especially with Billy Napier off the board too. If I was Tulane Id take long looks at both Jax States Charles Kelly and Kennesaw States Jerry Mack. Both would be strong hires and way better than going for Will Hall who has been heavily linked too"
