The Issue

Virginia Tech is all Americana. This great institution embodies tradition, excellence, and the spirit of aiming higher—qualities that need to be reflected in our football program. As someone who deeply cares about Virginia Tech, I believe our team deserves to deliver an outstanding performance on the field every week.

In recent years, our football program has faced challenges, and the Hokie Nation is yearning for a revival that brings both victory and pride back to the Lane Stadium. It is time to spark this revival.

John Gruden is a renowned figure in the football world with a proven track record of success. With his experience, leadership, and passion for the game, Gruden can transform our team into a powerhouse. During his time as head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, he led the team to an impressive Super Bowl victory in 2003. His extensive coaching background in the NFL is well respected and brings the level of professionalism and strategic acumen we need for our program.

Hiring John Gruden would not only elevate our team's performance but would also ignite the spirit of excellence that Virginia Tech stands for. His charismatic leadership style ensures that players are motivated and perform at their best during every game. We could once again see our Hokies rise to prominence, reflecting the greatness and potential of our beloved institution.

To bring about this positive change, let's come together as a community and show the university administration that John Gruden is the right choice for the Head Coach position. We owe it to the athletes, students, alumni, and fans to put forward a remarkable product on the football field that commands respect and admiration.

Sign this petition to urge Virginia Tech to appoint John Gruden as our new Head Coach, and let's make Hokie football a symbol of unrivaled excellence once more.
