The way biddy keeps trying to play him off as a good coach I feel like he is being considered heavily.

He should have no business wearing hog gear. Dude is not a good recruiter, or coach.

He had a full on player mutiny hoping they lose last year. This is not the leader the hogs could survive hiring.

Btw that same Virginia team won 9 games in the same division VT plays in.

Imagine not winning that division every year and getting 10+ wins, and losing to teams like old dominion.

Fuente should not even be on our radar.

Every time I've ever seen Va Tech play they just don't seem to do anything special. They just kind of seem like a mediocre team that plays in a dogshit division and racks up cheap wins. They kind of remind me of a lot of Bert teams... That's not a good thing.

As I’ve said time and time again, he is only known because he had a good qb at Memphis named Paxton Lynch.

He is a nobody.

Just goes to show you the Virginia coach would probably be a better hire.

Bronco Mendenhall would be a home run for sure. Still can’t believe Virginia of al schools was the one to get him out of Provo.

I started a thread on the 247 board about Fuente and how we are idiots if we hire him.

It was trashed after about 16 replies who defended him mostly. Russellville agreed with me in the post.

So, is it him? Lordy mercy NO!

If we're getting a coach from a Virginia school, it sure as hell better be Bronco Mendenhall and not Fuente.

Fuente is trash. It looked like he was gonna he fired midseason earlier in the year. I’ll give him credit for buying himself another year but no way I’m buying stock in him as a coach.

Fuente would be the epitome of jumping ship ahead of getting fired.

Either way, I'm of the firm opinion he's purely a smokescreen.
