What's this?

He would just be Fuente Again, including the same recruiting struggle


2014: 3-9
2015: 3-9
2016: 7-6
2017: 8-5
2018: 7-6
2019: 8-5
2020: 4-5
2021: 6-0 so far

2021 may be his good year, comparable to Fuente in 2016 or 2017, but otherwise they've just been a near-0.500 program, same as VT, the past several years. Is it harder to recruit at Wake than it is at VT? Sure, but that's exactly what was said about Memphis and Fuente.

People were melting down about Fuente and VT football in 2018, 3 years in. Are they really going to be able to tolerate another 5 years of 5-6 losses every season in the hope that Clawson might deliver a 9+ win season in 2027?
