UVA hires Tony Elliot as HC

[georgiatech22]

Dabo now has to hire two new coordinators.

H'ell be worse than Collins

Interesting move, I think it could work out well for them if he can get some decent coordinators. Despite their O not being great this season, I think he's probably a pretty good recruiter, and he will have had plenty of experience seeing how the Dabo model works to implement it elsewhere.

Maybe but he strikes me as a guy with awareness and willingness to change/adapt.

He’ll definitely be better than Collins, but that’s a low bar. Who is the last ACC coach with a worse start to his career than CGC?

 

[CarsonNewmanJacket]

Not a bad hire. Not Bronco quality, but he'll do.

depends on who he hires as coordinators...

I heard Patenaude is looking for a spot somewhere

 

[yellowjacket15]

We had a chance to hire this guy 3 years ago. Hope he doesn't make us regret it.

 

[ScionOfSouthland]

I wanted him over Collins so I guess we will see how things could have been

 

[BigDanT]

My God we have such an open ACC right now.

You know they would beat the everliving hell outta us with Pnute as the OC right?

 

[Deleted Stingtalker 69]

Well that game just got easier.

Never really thought he was our biggest problem. Other than the last two games of the season, our offense was putting up decent numbers, even with inept o line. Our defense was just horrendous

 

[GTCrew4b]

it would be really nice to have some continuity of direction/vision and a United fanbase behind that vision right now.

 

[gtchief]

Hahhaha

It is truly horrifying. 2022 can't get here soon enough.

Ted Roof (.118) and Greg Robinson (.213) are the only ACC coaches with a worse winning percentage than Geoff Collins (.265) since 2000.

I figured Roof would be the most recent example. Didn’t even remember Robinson, tbh.

2/3 ain’t bad. Go Jackets
