This is according to the Richmond Times-Dispatch Mike Barber, who has put out good insider knowledge over the past week.
Hearing that Virginia Tech is looking at Syracuse assistant Greg Adkins as its new offensive line coach. #Hokies— Mike Barber (@RTD_MikeBarber) January 12, 2013
Before we go anywhere, look at that mustache!
It screams, "bad-ass o-line coach", but in reality I know very little about him. His history from 'Cuse's athletics website is as follows:
| Coaching Experience | ||
| 2009-Present | Offensive Line/Recruiting Coordinator | Syracuse University |
| 2006-08 | Offensive Line | University of Tennessee |
| 2003-05 | Tight Ends/Assistant Offensive Line/Recruiting Coordinator | University of Tennessee |
| 2001-02 | Offensive Line/Recruiting Coordinator | Troy University |
| 1997-2000 | Offensive Line/Tight Ends | University of Georgia |
| 1996 | Defensive Line | University of Georgia |
| 1991-95 | Defensive Line/Tight ends/Offensive Line | Marshall University |
It's an impressive resume, full bio is here: http://www.suathletics.com/coaches.aspx?rc=465&path=football.
Is anyone familiar with him, what do you think?
