## Resource

Virginia Tech football is heating up under new head coach James Franklin, whose Penn State pedigree is sparking serious recruiting buzz and a revamped program vibe. Facilities, presentation, and ambition are all being elevated to “big time” standards, even if top targets like Chris Whitehead slip away. The early schedule offers winnable games to build momentum before tough matchups against Clemson, SMU, Miami, and rival Virginia. With Franklin’s first game still ahead, the foundation is being laid — and the future looks promising. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
