"Leave it to Jim Phillips to toe the company (ESPN) line. College football fans need to reject this move towards entertainment and away from sport"

"This is a message for college football programs across the country consider yourself warned. Virginia Tech's hiring of James Franklin is a shot across the bow of college football. The entire Atlantic Coast Conference and the rest of the country is now on notice. For its entire existence Virginia Tech has played small ball when it comes to finances. The #Hokies have never led the way in fundraising or sponsorship dollars. Even after Frank Beamer and Michael Vick made Virginia Tech a nationally-relevant brand the Hokies have never been able to compete with the Alabamas the Georgias and the Ohio"

"@BasicBlues Let me get this straight: James Franklin gets PSU to the CFP semis gets canned within a year. Matt Campbell gets PSU into the CFP in any capacity: gets an extension. What was the point of all this"

"@MelserWX @BasicBlues Was James Franklin a bad coach when he took Penn State to the semifinal Was he a bad coach when he won the conference title in 2016 Was he a bad coach when he was winning 10+ games for a bunch of years I get that y'all were tired of him but this revisionist history is dumb"

"Gotta be honest with yall - the early offensive staff feels pretty underwhelming. #Hokies have reportedly added a first-time play caller and now an assistant that oversaw limited development of Drew Allar at Penn State"

"Since this post has blown up a bit allow me to add one clarifying point. Virginia Tech's offensive staff has been a mess for years. I can feel underwhelmed with the reported additions while also thinking it's still an improvement. #Hokies"

"When it comes to the Sherrone Moore stuff I feel awful for his wife and kids. They do not deserve this. Multiple media members have said this has been a bit of an open secret for weeks now which begs the question: why didn't any media outlets report this before yesterday"
