We were very optimistic when Coach Fu was hired because

(1) we were keeping Bud and his defense in place, and
(2) he was bringing a simplified, but more aggressive offense to complement it.

We thought we were getting the best of both worlds, but Fu didn't understand VT, and he didn't bring his star O-coordinator with him. We got "plan b."

Coach Pry is a guy who understands VT, and should be the perfect man to fix the majority of things that are broken, hopefully to bring us back to competing for the Coastal, and the ACC title almost every year.
