Lot of JMU on Tech hatred (prior to the hire), why?

So weird. We have almost no overlap academically or athletically. Aside from beating us in football back in 2010, we have almost nothing to do with JMU.

They're just some random FCS-school in middle-Virginia in my book. Haven't given them a second though for years.

Something very telling on the JMU message boards -- HokieR 03/28/2016 07:40AM

How could they get that feeling considering all the facilities that have -- HokiePWC 03/28/2016 08:16AM

I would agree, didn't they make a push just last year to go Division I in -- HburgHokie5 03/28/2016 11:48AM

Been reading those threads...not doing COA is a big reason they think that. -- BlackwaterHokie 03/28/2016 09:57AM

Can they afford to do COA? Schools like that rely a lot on student fees for -- BG Hokie 03/28/2016 2:14PM

Given the "we're in money trouble!" timbre from many, I'd say they can't. ** -- BlackwaterHokie 03/28/2016 2:39PM

On a couple of the other threads I saw a few people -- VTHokie2000 03/28/2016 10:43AM

I have no idea. Just reporting what some of them think. -- HokieR 03/28/2016 08:23AM
