chris graham scott german Virginia Tech has officially welcomed James Franklin to Hokie Nation. Will Franklin be the guy to get Tech Football back to where it was … 15 years ago now?

Yeah, it’s been awhile.

I had Scott German join me to discuss.

We also both give UVA Athletics administrators hell for moving the 2026 NC State home football game to Brazil.

We wrap with a lengthy love letter to Ryan Odom Basketball.

It’s actually just puppy love right now, since we’re only in the cupcake part of the schedule.
