About the TSL Podcast
Launched in August 2017, the TSL Podcast is the most widely listened-to and watched Virginia Tech sports podcast. It began as an audio-only podcast, then started streaming live on Facebook in March of 2019 with Episode 66. In the summer of 2019, we built the Tech Sideline Podcast set and started streaming live from the set on YouTube in August of 2019 with Episode 73 (which, bluntly speaking, looks hilariously amateurish to us now).
You can listen on your favorite streaming platform or watch every episode on the Tech Sideline YouTube channel. Be sure to Like and Subscribe while on YouTube.
About TechSideline.com
Tech Sideline is an independent publication, not affiliated with the university or its athletic programs, so we provide a unique perspective that appeals to the large and growing fan base of Virginia Tech Athletics.
Tech Sideline was launched on March 12, 1996 by 1987 Tech graduate (BSEE) Will Stewart as a small, personal web page. In 1997, the site evolved into HokieCentral.com, and in August of 1999, joined the SportsWar network of college sports web sites. In November of 2000, the site changed names to TechSideline.com, or TSL. Over the years, TSL has grown into what you see before you: a full-time Virginia Tech sports media company, complete with web site, podcast, YouTube channel, and large and active social media presences.

If Whit is any kind of A.D. he must, at the end of the season, have the same kind of talk with CBP as Dave Braine had with CFB after the first 5 or so seasons where he insists on significant changes in Brent’s staff at the end of the season AND he must give Pry the monetary resources to get good, experienced assistants.
I totally agree with the first part of your comment (Babcock must force Pry to make changes to the coaching staff)…but as for the monetary resources, Whit gave Pry plenty of money to begin with. That is not the problem. Pry simply hired inexperienced coordinators.
Thank you Andy and Chris, for your honesty at the end of the podcast about the potential of this team…3 wins (at most). And nothing will change until Pry makes changes to his coaching staff (which is where the blame for this fiasco squarely lies). Andy…your comparison to Duke’s quick turnaround was perfect…they were in the same situation as the Hokies 2 years ago, yet the programs have since gone in completely opposite directions. All due to who their head coach hired on their staffs.
Very sad how far Tech has fallen.
Love the Podcast. As I’ve said before, it’s my favorite hour of the week. As Chris stated his observations on the offensive and defensive lines, I see the same thing, however to me, it appears their level of play has dramatically gotten worse. The physicality of this VT team is really bad and you can’t win many games with that type style. I’m not sure what’s happening in practice, but something is way off kilter….
