Disappointment that is unfortunately the term I am using for the Hokies after their week 1 meltdown to ECU. I mean come on Glennon is not the right QB for this kinda offense. Hey is I was Frank Beamer I would of red shirted Glennon and started my boy Tyrod “You Cant Touch This” Taylor. Also they were just pelted with injuries to corner Macho Harris and wide-out Brandon Dillard. So without those to guys the Hokies had 3 freshman starting as receivers. Where as last season they had 4 Seniors starting at the position. So my predictions have definetly changed I now think that the ACC is wide open and even teams such Miami, Wake Forest and even UNC can take advantage of the losses to Tech and Clemson. I have always been a Glennon HATER and I will probably always be one as he has never done anything good and was a big disappointment the year we were all expecting that Marcus Vick would carry us to a BCS game in 06.Ever since we have had Glennon he has taken us nowhere.No bowl game wins and every big game he just hasn’t stepped up to the challenge of being a QB at Virginia Tech.Next game for Tech is Home to Cupcake Furman. If Tech losses to Furman they are officially done from winning the ACC and getting to a Bowl game. After Furman heres how the rest of the schedule looks

Every week I will update this schedule for the results.
Yesterday’s game was a huge disappointment. I think Beamer needs to get rid of offensive coordinator Bryan Stinespring – some the plays he calls are questionable in my book.
To like me this post… Rocks Go Hokies!!
We live close to Furman and today’s paper said that Beamer has decided not to redshirt Tyrod. He hasn’t named the starting QB for today’s game, though.
