Next year will be marginally better (can't get worse, right?), but Frank just doesn't have it anymore. Not saying he should be fired necessarily, but if I was the AD, I would start scouting the coaching landscape and hope Beamer can be pressured into retiring.

Maybe you reach a point in life when you might just be too rich and too old to really put in the work required to be competitive. That's my take.

I just posted this on TOB, but after BC's last TD, a BC player shoved a Hokie player out of the celebration pile. There was zero response from the player and the Hokie D. That's borderline quitting.

Good job finally going up tempo. That's a great equalizer with a weak OL. Not sure why it's taken the coaches this long to adjust.

I agree. It has taken UThug 15 years to get where they are and they are dulisional over beating a poor USC-E team with no defense.
I think we turn the corner next season. There is a lot of learning going on with the young players and hopefully the OL can improve.. well.. it almost would be impossible for it not too.
