Actually George this was a very good class for VT. Just going back 5 years their recruiting classes consistently ranked 4th in the ACC and in around the low 20′s nationally. This year 14th nationally and 2nd in conf. is pretty darn good. Of course it’s all on paper and many times the recruits don’t pan out, or the team didn’t recruit their needs etc., but at least its a place to start.

24.Wake up bloggers…Barry can not possibly be a GT fan. I know the work of a Wahoo when I see it. Barry often harps on why he hates Virginia Tech, and everything about it so much. Why would a Georgia Tech fan hate on Virginia Tech so much? Because the Yellow Jacket offense is so boring to watch that he hates on the Hokies? Really, Georgia Tech runs the spread option and it is dreadful to defend but only throwing 3 or 4 passes a game? You think fans like that? Do you think receivers and QB’s just line up to go to GT to get a chance to make it to the NFL? (other than Calvin Johnson, the guy is a machine and probably could have went to the NFL after high school). Barry is not a GT fan, but a UVA fan in disguise because although Georgia Tech had a fair chance at the ACC title this year, UVA did not. To honestly call himself a UVA fan here on the blog would allow all of us to poke fun at him for a decade of losses at the hands of “stupid” (quoting Barry) people at Virginia Tech.

The sad part, Scott, is we have the same old story with far less 4 & 5 star players than all the teams we are trying to catch. Not saying we don’t have a couple of 3′s that are very close to being 4′s though. We have good talent but not great which is how it has been for years.

For those who say this class has no talent:

I wouldn’t classify this past years schedule as easy – Clemson, FSU, both tough teams. Most of the rest of the schedule should have been winable though.

This schedule coming up though should be much easier with no FSU or Clemson. Alabama should be favored by about 17 though. This is indeed a Weaver special.

This is probably the worst home schedule we’ve had in recent history and we’ve had some bad ones.

Barry from ivy is a closet Hokie fan. Why else does he post on this site all the time?

In the world of college football nobody knows the number of wins a team will have in the next year. There are too many things that are uncertain and too many things that can happen at any time.
Having said that, there is one thing for sure, and that is that Virginia Tech will not win the national championship.
