šŸˆ 2025/26 Football Offseason Recruiting and Transfers

Virginia listed among the most likely next first time national champions on cover 3 today (I literally did a double take).

Section starts around 38 minute mark, VT/UVA discussion around 43.

Even if its a (very) long shot, its good we’re being talked about by people like this as a place that’s investing and taking football seriously. That perception is very very important for us right now.

If we had beaten Duke in the ACCCG, even if we’d then been pasted by Ole Miss in Oxford in the CFP opener, this whole off-season we’d have ā€œthe next Indianaā€ buzz. What if, man…

Went ahead and locked in my 2026 season tickets this morning. Not what I’d call a great home schedule, but still excited what we did in the portal, and see if the staff can build on 2025.

I mean, I saw where one preseason ACC power rankings had us 3rd for next year. I think some folks out there are probably starting to pay some attention to what we’re doing.

The first 2 schools they named were Oregon and Texas Tech, probably obvious. Then Kanell or Fornelli mentioned VT. Patterson said that wasn’t one of the 7 on his list, but countered with Virginia. The other 2 were kinda iffy on that. They mentioned Utah, Arizona State, Vandy and Missouri. Forgot who else.

Did we already know this?

I think the assumption was there but now its confirmed.

Curious to see what we get out of him.

Chandler, man, it’s time to move on. Thank you for a fun 2025 season.

Why?
If you’re 25 years old, and could play football for five months and get paid $1 million wouldn’t you do it?

If you thought Duke would be flooded with Knipple over the next few years, then NC State may be flooded with even more rivers…

Knew this was coming after the Chambliss ruling.

Dont blame Chandler for chasssing one last paycheck, but also completely understand it’s time to move on.

I wonder how long it’ll take for a decision to be made? Does he stick around if he gets told yes??

I think the staff has moved on. Chandler comes back and you probably lose Pribula and Holstein.

Just curious why do you think Holstein? He was brought in with the understanding of being backup this year I thought ?

Because he has an open competition against Pribula. Would not vs. Morris.

Understand that but if he’s already been thinking backup what difference would that make? I just don’t see why someone who is thinking backup for a year and start next season would have a change of opinion with another guy added who also would be gone by the time he’d be in line to start?

Chandler missed the Portal Window. If he gets another year, he also needs the court to force the NCAA to let him enter the Portal late too.

Honestly this could lead to a really great spring/summer competition to have 3 starting QBs fighting out for a spot. Also could be terrible for locker room where 2 guys were sold on a spot that they thought was theirs to fight for after the NCAA denial…Plus probably a lot of money wasting on the bench as well too with QBs each being worth $1M+ each.

I’m going to be straight up three starting QBs feels like a great way to gut locker room culture
