Was hoping for this but didn’t expect it this soon, let’s go!

[@kenzoby8300]

Welcome to VT, coach S!
Good interview, David and Chris.

[@ColtonRatliff-i4y]

Stoked on this guy as our DC

[@DCimpressions]

Really impressed with him. You can tell he appreciates the opportunity and wants to be here!

[@DonSchonder]

Enjoyed the interview. It will be interesting to have follow-up interviews with coaches and players regarding changes.

[@wave640]

Let's GOOOO!!! 3-4 and 4-3 era is over; adapt and overcome week to week based on opponent. YES!

[@randywilson1134]

Great , GO HOKIES
Thanks to all

[@ThomasNowicki-3]

I’m a fan of the hire hopefully this pans out

[@ALnMO]

Making the work day a bit more tolerable

[@spencerh5935]

I was hoping you’d ask about Bud Foster and his involvement

[@galencreekmore4700]

Came here to say this same thing

[@KennethBurnett-b6v]

When is his official press conference???

[@thomastrain7311]

Nice !

[@coachschoen]

Big Brain KISS!~!!!

[@tomlester8705]

KISS - like it

[@TerrorDomeSquad]

Go Hokies!

[@Gmoney189]

I like what I heard, go Hokies!!!!

[@jdmarshall1991]

Bout time for a haircut. Sometimes we have to be honest with ourselves. Just do it. Don’t think about it, just go to a barber.

[@tellicogolfer]

Chris, man up, dude. All that talk about Siefkes not being here for long yesterday, how about "Where do you see yourself in 4 to five years Sam?" But seriously, this guy feels like going all in on red on the roulette wheel - it's either boom or bust so let's see..........

[@HokieGreenbud]

I’ve got a good feeling but I’m not jumping on no hype train just yet let’s see how the upcoming season plays out before we all get excited and start telling lies to ourselves

[@wesleyholland7812]

David needs a haircut.

[@jdmarshall1991]

Yes!

[@KennethBurnett-b6v]

Quick question how are you gonna recruit with no Twitter or X?????? IJS

[@zacheryhardie9313]

1) that’s not the only way to contact people
2) the rest of the coaching staff has the things you mentioned. VT football isn’t a 1 man show
3) Believe it or not? Some recruits may even find that refreshing

[@KennethBurnett-b6v]

You may have a point​@@zacheryhardie9313

[@mineralt]

Chris looks like Tommy Lee Jones's bastard son

[@nocontentfromoldman5595]

Latter Day Elmo

[@Seance86]

Time will tell

[@BoomerKendrick-su9qd]

😑

[@willstewart9539]

Sorry man, I know you really wanted Jham.

[@thomastrain7311]

​@@willstewart9539😂

[@BoomerKendrick-su9qd]

😂 I knew Jham wasn’t coming back! I am optimistic that this was a good hire, but I have my doubts! I like the idea of how flexible this dude says he is with different schemes.
Jham is moving up the ranks in the NFL, and I doubt he wants to work for someone who fired him to begin with!

[@BoomerKendrick-su9qd]

@@thomastrain7311😂 💩

[@BoomerKendrick-su9qd]

⁠@@willstewart9539I am a little biased for Jham, I grew up with him being my neighbor! Practically taught him everything he knows about football! Lmao
Gotta give him a hard time!
Would love to see him back at VAtech and back in VA!

[@James-pl2oy]

I will reserve judgement until I see the on-field product. Guess I can always look at some Cardinals film in the meantime lol

[@tenaciousb1509]

Meh, unimpressed. We shall see.
