"Old" is relative.
Slive has done ok for himself the last few years.

Dude knows D, but he's an old guy. And it's hard to see what he gains from making this move at this point in his career
Seriously? You really can't think of anything?

Fosters 1st year in the Big E. Led team #1 in the nation and #2 in the nation in the ACC in scoring Defense
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?
am I the only one on here that sees this as a craptastic hire?? What am I missing??
oh wait....he does provide defenses that get blown out at home....
what was I thinking?? forgive me....carry on......
I just looked at his stats this year, because some claim their D is down and maybe it is, but it is a huge improvement from ours.
- They Kept 9/11 FBS teams below their Yds/game and points/game a few were Ohio State, East Carolina and Georgia Tech
- They only allowed over 500 yards once (East Carolina)
- They only allowed over 400 yards twice (East Carolina and Miami)
- Faced 6 teams in the top 50 scoring and yards/game held all below their averages

AG
at 55 he can't get it up like he used to, but when he does go full tilt, he has the experience and knowledge to make his love making sessions meaningful and to really do a great job.
well he likes Lone Star.

That would be a home run.
No, that would be a walk-off grand slam in game 7 of the world series.
But does he get A&M?
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

Foster would bring instant credibility and name recognition to recruits. And he's a damn fine D Coordinator. Any team would be lucky to have him.

One of several good options...it will be good to see us get the right guy...whoever that turns out to be.
^ There you go, that's the right mentality! Whoever we get will be the RIGHT guy! Yay for mediocrity!
My friend just texted me the same thing about Foster. I hope it is true.

He has a consistent track record over 20 years as a coordinator. His WORST defense was top 50.

So your friend also looks at TexAgs?
If we did get Foster do y'all think he would bring Josh Sweat with him?
Hopefully he will make the Malik in home on Thursday.

Yep the "right" guy 3 years ago was mark Snyder .... Please no. Let's just get bud... Or MUSCHAMP... Nard dog.. Make it happen!
