When Rick Pitino heard how long Manny Diaz lasted at Temple, he did a spit take and said "That's all!?'

Manny Diaz thinks VT is a 2 win team this year

Now finish up them taters; I'm gonna go fondle my sweaters.

He's probably right

Yep

Now finish up them taters; I'm gonna go fondle my sweaters.

Manny Diaz thinks that Brad Cornelson has no idea how to attack his blitz-on-everydown Defense.

Oh...yeah....well..I guess i have nothing

That whole ODU melt down was the beginning of the end.

A locker room meltdown like that is the first sign that a coach has lost the team and all the exiting players sure confirmed that.

Man, that dude is a douchebag.

I criticize knowing full well I could never do what these athletes do.

We still think it's a Hill problem?

Hill should have never said what he said that is for sure.

I got lit up last year for suggesting that our Strength Coach put more gas on a burning fire when after the loss he was lighting up players.

In game sure, but after you had one of the most embarrassing losses in the history of the program no need to continue in to beat into your players how shitty they played. They definitely know.

The whole situation could have been avoided if the men in the room acted like it. Then everyone scapegoated the young adult in this situation.

I'd be pissed too if I was him.

Real late to the party, but what did Hill say?

A dude can be individually an asshole without indicting the team. Hill has showed he is very immature on and off the field. Individually, he doesn't seem like a good person, that's all my silly comment was trying to convey. He's holding on to the past and dragging his former team, get over it and move on with your life.

We all have a hunch that there is some systematic problem with the program right now.

I criticize knowing full well I could never do what these athletes do.

There is much more stuff Hill did than Bitter or 247 "insiders" or anyone on here knows about. he had to go. No choice, ODU was just the last of a very large stack of straws.

Holding this opinion is confirmation that you have NO IDEA what all of the circumstances were that led to Trevon's dismissal, and using the current climate to pile this on the coaches' plates is kind of gross.

You'd be better off to drop this like a hot potato and just make fun of me for starting a another Hatin' On thread.

Leonard. Duh.

If the argument with Hilgart was an isolated incident, Hill would still be on the team. I'll leave it at that.

Hill demonstrated a pattern of immaturity after he left Virginia Tech that validated all of the stories I heard about him during his time in Blacksburg.

Screw him. I care as much about him as I do Buzz

Now finish up them taters; I'm gonna go fondle my sweaters.

Screw him. I care as much about him as I do Buzz Brent

FTFY

Who?

Brent Langdon Williams, aka the former head coach of the Virginia Tech Men's Basketball program.

Who?

Mike Jones.

Knowing how our season is going so far he is going to get a scoop and score.

Me and about 10 Hokies from all over are meeting in Miami for our bi-annual Miami game trip. Last time we made the trip, the Hokies were 7-1 going up against an 8-1 Miami team. We got our asses kicked two years ago in Miami but at least I knew we were going to a bowl game. If you guys watch the game look for me on TV, I'll be the guy holding up the bring "Beamer back sign." /s

Pour some Beer on it

Manny Diaz doesn't mind that his team's football stadium is almost an hour away from campus.

Manny Diaz thinks he knows Fuente's weakness(es)

Onward and upward

Manny Diaz is trying to one up Fuente by accomplishing the exact same record only with better players and a storied program.

Manny Diaz - just please take it easy on us on Saturday.

They beat Central Michigan 17-12

We beat Furman 24-17.

We have not won vs. Miami since 2016., and have put up a total of 24 points against them in the last 2 games. I'm concerned.

Manny Diaz took some of the most obnoxious aspects of the Miami program, embraced them, and developed a culture we all love to hate...

oh yeah, and he is managing to continue the trend of under performing with great talent...

I'm sorry, I'm having trouble coming up with a real hatin' on here. I think Manny Diaz is a perfect coach to keep producing a beatable, hateable Miami.

But yeah, I'm sure he also parks in handicapped spots and tells the guy in the wheelchair that he'll just be a minute.

I prefer Justin Fuente to Manny Diaz.

Can't tell if this is in the spirit of hating on Diaz, or hating on Fuente?

Yes.

Not sure how this was missed until now...

Manny Diaz invented the Turnover Chain.

Manny Diaz thinks preparing for VT is serious business.

Is coronavirus over yet?

Manny Diaz licks the ice cream and then puts it back in the freezer.

Manny Diaz didn't win a single game at his first head coaching job

Yes,that's the Hokie Bird riding a camel. Why'd you ask?

Manny Diaz is waiting for us to fire Corny to swoop in and hire him as his next OC. His second candidate is Lefty after he gets shit canned from Bowling Green.

Manny Diaz never wants Brad Cornelson to be fired at VT

Neither does Justin Fuente

Manny Diaz keeps a box of Crayola 64 by his desk in case he needs a snack.

The Orange and Maroon you see, that's fighting on to victory.

So he is a Marine?

Wet stuff on the red stuff.

Manny Diaz draws a line in the sand to recruits, clarifying what it means to be committed.

Manny Diaz forbids his commits to talk to other teams, because he remembers that time he got lured away...

Manny Diaz is a fake tough guy prick

Manny Diaz hopes to expand on the turnover chain tradition. He's been watching Malibu's Most Wanted for inspiration.

Manny Diaz invented the touch down knuckle dusters cause the turnover chain wasn't enough bling for him.

Manny Diaz envies David Cutcliffe for running up the score on VT with a fake punt after the game was basically over.

I hate Manny Diaz because his team is about to demolish ours on national TV again

Manny Diaz is forgettable enough that it's even possible.

Manny Diaz thinks our fanbase is apathetic enough to let his Hatin' On thread drop off the list of active discussions.

Rumor is that the fan base was in a "fugue state" after last weeks loss to Duke.

Manny Diaz tells Leonard to drink 🍹

Let's Go

HOKIES

Leonard. Duh.

Manny Diaz's first name is actually Bob, but he had to resort to being an au pair during a stretch of unemployment and the nickname just stuck.
