receiving votes" actually being a big deal. I have said the same thing about Beamer barging into the old boys club of college football - no other program or coach has done and sustained what he and VT did. Boise State is the only thing close.

I will admit, I did not enjoy the Duke game and felt pretty concerned CJF didn't have "it" as a coach and had lost team and program, but this season was a remarkable turn around. It really was all about attitude and mentality. Beamer was always able to rally the troops, during Duke game I didn't think CJF could - but he did.

2020 is going to be a great year for Hokie football to return to national picture - just wait.
