## Resource

When Virginia Tech fired head coach Brent Pry, fans turned to Penn State’s James Franklin—Pry’s mentor and family friend—to take over. But Franklin, also jobless, convinced the Hokies to bring Pry back as defensive coordinator, defying convention. Pry, who had other offers, was swayed by community support for his family and Franklin’s personal pitch. Even the AD who fired him showed up to plead his case. Pry joked he might’ve called plays himself if he’d known how easy it’d be to return—proof that sometimes the best moves come when you least expect them.
