I didn't get to say this in the other thread when we were talking about Owens, but I can still taste those Owens burritos in my dreams
Agree with everything here except:
he was fired because Cristobal's buddies had crypto money.
It was Miami Hospital's COVID profits, not crypto money, that paid for Cristobal to come to Miami. Crypto is paying their NIL though.

Should we give him a ride in a Lamborghini? Oh wait, that was Florida State
This is definitely the 4* recruit that we got in early with that's keeping his verbal commitment to VT unless something better come along before signing day. Historically we're 0/128 on that front.
So we're saying we hired the right coaches but just in the wrong positions......lol
Franklin is soon going to be up there with Drew Harris in Hokie lore, isn't he?
Well, you've got time to work on that pool....
It's a five minute walk from my house to the pub. It's a 35 minute walk from the pub to my house.
The difference is staggering.
As opposed to when?
LOL. I have two kids. I've had that exact conversation.
Facebook writ large is a shit show
But he [Diaz] underperformed at Miami
Most Diaz criticisms are fair, but everyone has underperformed at Miami since Larry Coker was fired. Through 36 games, Diaz had an identical record to Cristobal: 21-15. Currently, Diaz has a better win percentage at Miami than Cristobal, Al Golden, and Randy Shannon. He has the second highest ACC winning percentage behind Richt (not counting interims). Diaz wasn't great, but he's one of the better coaches Miami has had in the past 20 years and did so without the resources that Cristobal is getting. He wasn't fired for poor performance, he was fired because Cristobal's buddies had crypto money.
The Facebook groups are an utter sh*tshow
Honestly, I know a lot of people who still have nothing but respect for Fuente and would love to see him back.
Looks like Hokies are favored in 6 out of 10 by rankings. Underdogs in two and two are unranked facing each other.
I honestly think if Florida is just offering 1 million more than Ole Miss, Kiffin is better off staying where he is. House and family are settled, less worry about hurricanes, insurance, etc.
I can see Penn State not paying him next year if he doesn't have a coaching job and a court siding with them. If he was offered multiple jobs, and turned them down he didn't meet the obligations of his buyout.
Lost dad at 79 and Mom just turned 85 two weeks ago. I moved her to Blacksburg during COVID so she wouldn't be 660 miles away anymore. Now she lives next door (a little more than 1/4 mile as the crow flies).
Thanks for posting about tonite's dual. Excited to see Eddie V, Mullen, Sasso and the new faces on the squad. Should give the guys a good test before the National Duals next weekend in OK where they wrestle for the money $$.
Your last sentence was the death knoll on his recruiting.
Good for you! Lost my dad in 2004 at age 75(1 month after their 50th anniversary) and mom in 2011 at age 82(then lost both brothers in 2012 at ages 55 and 56 3 months apart). Missed a lot of the last years of my dad's life for various reasons and regret it to this day. Determined to not have it happen again with mom and didn't. Wrote a short article/passage about it a bout two weeks after mom passed. If anyone would like to read it, send me your email and I'll send it to you. Long story short-cherish your parents while you have them-I lost mine when I was 39 and 46 years old. Would give anything to still have them around!
Been traveling and I guess had my head under a rock --- but no ESPN on Youtube TV to watch the match. F* espn!
