Three years into his tenure as football coach at Virginia Tech, Brent Pry is 16-21. He has brought the Hokies to a pair of bowl games the last two seasons, but he has struggled mightily in one-score games, something he addressed at the ACC Kickoff on Thursday in Charlotte.
Last season was supposed to be the year that Virginia Tech took a giant step under Pry after a ton of retention and Transfer Portal additions had them set up for a season that was going to be at least eight or nine wins. Heck, some college football analyst tabbed the Hokies as a dark horse for the new 12-team College Football Playoff.
