It’s baffling to me too. The new board makes it awful to find threads and then be complicates it with three different threads he keeps active on coaching search candidates.

I don't really get the whole Fuentes "crashed and burned" at VT thing.


Here's the record the 4 years at VT before he got there:

7-6
7-6
8-5
7-6

A combined 29-23

Here's the record in the 4 years he's been there:

10-4
9-4
6-7
7-3

A combined 32-18.

Fuente would be a good hire. Beamer still undermines that program like crazy so he's not having the success he should

But like i said from the start. If Gus lets it be known he wants out this time at Auburn he's probably getting the job. Like it or not

Fuente had one bad season at Tech and folks already have him fired. I’d definitely take him off their hands if they want to unload him.

After his starting quarterback broke his ankle in the game. They made a QB change after their loss to Duke this year and now they're probably going to win the ACC Coastal.

It won't be any of those guys. Gus can't win with 5 star talent. Only an idiot would hire him. Gus that qualifies him for our job. On a serious note. I told you guys a while back that I thought it would be Kiffin. I still think there's a good chance we offer Mike N. But still think that we end up with Lane.

I would think the backup QB could beat old Dominion in their first year of college football.

Fuente that their own fansases want gone, but can't fire beacuse of massive buyouts.

I don't think most Virginia Tech fans want him fired rn. I get they lost to Old Dominion last year when they had a lot of expectarions, but they still made a bowl, they've rebounded in a big way this year, and currently have a solid chance of winnibg their last 2 games and going to the conference championship.

If it’s anything like I remember the basketball search being, heat got turned up on the real candidate (Norvell, Kiffin, or whoever) too early so now someone is floating more options to get the pressure off.

Steinmetz is the one pushing for Fickel. He's the dumb arse, with Jerry's "encouragement", that made JCP hire Morris.

If it comes to that, just shut the program down.

Irwin says we contacted some former coaches to get their opinions on certain candidates. Leave it to Nutt to completely misrepresent what happened.
