quote:Va Tech's offense has sucked since Vick left. The fact that they can't move the ball at all sets the d up for failure. I WISH we had a d as good as theirs. They've allowed 20+ points 5 times this season. Now I know they're not playing prolific offenses, but they held Ohio State to 21. Think Snyder could do that?

As a highly knowledgeable person and one who has spent hours reading ESPN and Sports Illustrated, which are publications of the highest quality, I find this hire a complete bust.
Look at the 2014 stats:
Virginia Tech had the #17 overall defense (statistically)
A&M had the #101 overall defense
101-17 = 84
I think my point is clear here
