Virginia Tech Hokies (official thread)

As a former Roanoke resident VT could really benefit from someone like Franklin.

I know we all poke fun at Franklin but this is what VT needs. VT isn’t elite but neither is James so it sort of works.

I think Franklin can get VT back to what they should be which is 8-10 win team.
I agree. Franklin isn't a bad coach and can recruit well enough to turn them around to a be respectable foe. I mean if he starts slapping Dabo around with his nuts, I'm all for it.

Maryland Terrapins (turtle)

"Indiana started a plan about four years ago," Smith said. "They started investing in football a while ago and then they got Curt and then it skyrocketed. It wasn't hire a coach and everything's going to be OK. Put all the things in place to be successful and that's what they've done."


This tracks. Invest in football now and find a good coach in 2 years.

What plays in Buckeye History rank with the Scoop ‘n Sawyer, aka The Texas JackSaw Massacre?

At some levels I think that play, and sorry for the pun-ish statement here, may have been the play where everyone on the team realized that they were ‘on a mission from God’ that season. No denying its place in history, that’s for sure.
This. I actually didn’t see the play live (was moving that day) but once I learned of it, I knew it was finally our year.

Week 12 Game Discussion Thread

Texas state trooper who had run-in with South Carolina’s Nyck Harbor was sent home from game

90


A Texas trooper who had an altercation with South Carolina’s Nyck Harbor after his touchdown on Saturday was sent home from the game, according to the state Department of Public Safety.

Harbor scored on an 80-yard reception in the second quarter and ran into the tunnel limping following the score. As he and three other players were walking back to the field, the trooper walked in between Harbor and another player and bumped into them as they passed each other.

The trooper and Harbor turned around and the trooper pointed at Harbor with both hands and said something to him. Harbor was quickly pushed away by his teammate and they continued to the field.

The public safety department issued a statement saying the trooper was sent home.

“Our Office of Inspector General (OIG) is also aware of the incident and will be further looking into the matter. No additional information will be released at this time,” the statement reads.

Boo Carter (DB Tennessee, transfer to ???)

Boo Carter no longer part of Tennessee football, to transfer

Tennessee defensive back/punt returner Boo Carter is no longer a member of the football team, a team official confirmed to ESPN on Sunday, ending his short and tumultuous career with the Volunteers.

According to a source familiar with the situation, Carter didn't show up at Neyland Stadium for the No. 23 Volunteers' 42-9 victory against New Mexico State on Saturday.

The source told ESPN that Carter had been informed by the coaching staff that he wasn't going to play against the Aggies because of disciplinary issues. But the coaches still expected Carter to attend the homecoming game and watch from the sideline.

When Volunteers coach Josh Heupel was asked about Carter's status following Saturday's game, he said: "At the end of the day, there's a standard you've got to meet to be in that locker room, so he was not out on the field with us. That will be my last response to anything related to that for right now."

Carter, a former ESPN 300 recruit in the Class of 2024, had 25 tackles, three forced fumbles, three passes defended and one sack as a backup nickelback in eight games this season. He averaged 13.2 yards on 11 punt returns.

Carter didn't play a defensive snap in the Volunteers' 33-27 loss to Oklahoma on Nov. 1 because of a coach's decision.

Shortly after school officials confirmed Sunday that Carter was no longer a member of the team, he announced on social media that he won't play the rest of the season due to injury and plans to enter the transfer portal when it opens Jan. 2.

"I'd like to take this opportunity to thank The University of Tennessee Coaches, administrators and fans for a wonderful 2 years," Carter wrote. "Unfortunately my season has been cut short due to injury. I have decided to enter the transfer portal and I am excited about the opportunities going forward!"
