## Resource

James Franklin, the new Virginia Tech head coach, is already ranked 13th by CBS Sports—surpassing his former Penn State successor despite being fired last season. With 128 career wins and a national championship game appearance, Franklin’s pedigree justifies the hype, even as the Hokies start with a projected 8-win season and a familiar QB in Ethan Grunkemeyer.
