If you hear Virginia Tech fans say, "Here we go again,'' it is understandable. They have seen this scenario play out before, and it didn't play out very well.
On Tuesday, it was reported by Pete Thamel of ESPN that new Virginia Tech football coach James Franklin was hiring Penn State co-offensive coordinator Ty Howle as his OC in Blacksburg. Howle was a tight ends coach in State College under Franklin, and he developed some of the best tight ends not only in the Big Ten, but also some of the best tight ends in the country.
