I'll say this here since I am liked better here than on the other boards

This has not been the best 24 hours in VT athletics history.

For the first time in a while, I am much more comfortable with the trajectory of the basketball team than with the football team. I am getting very nervous about Coach Fuente and his ability to recruit or manage a big-time program with high expectations.

Let's hope I am wrong about CJF, but posting a first recruiting class that is our poorest ranked since the 90s and losing coach Gray is beginning to make me very uncomfortable.

We hired a coach to help us rebuild our offense and change our brand. -- SmithfieldHokie 02/07/2016 3:06PM

I expect CJF to take 2 years to get the program back to ... -- Old Line Hokie 02/04/2016 11:58AM

Why? this bball coach has tanked the team -- BigCrumpy 02/04/2016 11:29AM

You have GOT to be joking. ** -- mancunian 02/04/2016 1:30PM

The previous coach tanked the team not this one. ** -- Jackie VT 02/04/2016 12:48PM

A lot of that's on Weaver. -- mancunian 02/04/2016 1:42PM

*this* basketball coach has "tanked the team"? -- Pylons 02/04/2016 11:41AM

He has the credentials, give him at least 10 months ** -- BigCrumpy 02/04/2016 11:24AM

What is the baseline for changing coaches? ** -- gman86 02/04/2016 11:05AM

I'll let ya know at halftime at Liberty game if I'm nervous. ** -- Maroon Baboon 02/04/2016 10:58AM

Sorry but Why? ** -- BigCrumpy 02/04/2016 11:30AM

Transition was always going to have some bumps... -- mancunian 02/04/2016 09:53AM

Does this mean Tech is moving to the Big 12? -- Tailgate Guru 02/04/2016 08:59AM

Kept class together, got two sought after Jucos, -- Colonel Jessup 02/04/2016 08:27AM

Like you Cobb, but 2 months with a dead period, almost completely new staff -- Stech 02/04/2016 08:00AM

Was an obvious need for ace recruiters on this staff. Didn't get them. -- chuckd4vt 02/04/2016 02:20AM

We cut TG's pay so we could pay Memphis position coaches top dollar. ** -- chuckd4vt 02/04/2016 02:22AM

It was only a 15K pay cut. That's called "sending a message" -- AshburnFarmHokie 02/04/2016 08:29AM

And TG sent the message yesterday. Dude coulda coached anywhere. -- chuckd4vt 02/04/2016 2:20PM

I'm happy for him -- AshburnFarmHokie 02/04/2016 3:47PM

If JF didn't want him, he should have never offered to keep him. ** -- jboyhokie 02/04/2016 08:46AM

The VT fan base may have revolted, so it's easier to "allow" him to... -- EDGEMAN 02/04/2016 09:28AM

I thought many were going to revolt if Beamer stayed another year -- Go VT 02/04/2016 09:48AM

I do have some concerns about closing the deal -- CobbCountyHokie 02/04/2016 12:24AM

So, was two days soon enough? ;^) ** -- Freddyburg Hokie 02/07/2016 11:26AM

We have actually been less than a middle road team -- Maroon Doom 02/04/2016 12:50AM

We're a middle of the road P5 team the last 4 years. ** -- chuckd4vt 02/04/2016 02:23AM
