It was a beautiful thing seeing great free throw shooting. Definitely a mark of an ACC team. I agree with the loss of defense in the last 6 min but Louisville couldn't miss any 3pt try. Ugh

They have just recently expanded and moved down the street. Cited the reasons was because they got tired of seeing customers leave because of wait times forced by lack of space. They have also decided to open a microbrewery to go with the restaurant.

I'm actually headed here in about an hour to try it out! Not sure if the brewery is up and running yet!

And Frank was evaluated by his superiors and allowed to continue if he improved the state of the program by making some hard choices. He did. So he was evaluated, given a path forward, and executed on that plan. Fuente should be similarly evaluated, and will be. But speculating about anything related to Fuente and staff is really absurd at this point when the guy hasn't even fielded a team at VT.

I saw that. Might as well play as many games as possible on it while it's a field. I've heard rumors about some high school games being played there as well.

I wasn't mocking ATXhokie, I was actually showing support for his sheep premise.

Not at all apparent, but OK.

Saying someone does not have a "good mind" is different than saying an argument lacks logic. One is an attack on the person, and the other is an attack on the argument.

Fair enough, but I'm making an interpretation based on what I know about the guy. If he meant to completely attack ATX's character, then that's poor form, but so far the line of thought in this little sub-thread lacks any logic whatsoever and looks like a totally unproductive rant, which is discouraged here.

If it makes everyone feel better: tsk tsk, reign in the snark.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Agree completely, but throwing bombs, escalating to "death train," etc. is just absurd.

Also, Fuente is not yet an established, knowledgeable community member as far as VT football goes. He seems to have just shown up, and ATXhokie thinks he is driving the train off the rails. So, should we just dismiss Fuente too, as suggested by your own argument above?

No, because Fuente has made logical statements about his vision for the program, taken logical action in reaching out to our pipeline schools and more, done the job of keeping most of our important recruits on board, and has all-in-all led most people to believe that he's qualified for the job.

No it's because you have a very real lack of branding of your message. As soon as you start throwing out "death train" and Sheep you lost your message and became noise.

Also in regards to your twitter post, the Beamer era was a failure after 3. Why should we afford Fuente so much good will. This is the state of college football, it is what made the Beamer era end, but you don't want Fuente to be judged by the same lens. Baaaaa

Here is a link to an article about it. Link I think it is a good idea for those programs to get some exposure and get a chance to do something pretty unique.

P.S. Ba

Just to add to this...Malkin is in the top 10 in points and Crosby has one less point than Ovi.

Check the Julian bailey thread as well as a few others. It's not his fault the storm of the century ruined a recruiting weekend if I remember correctly we had a few big name recruits coming up here that had to cancel

Furthermore I believe he has extended offers to a lot of high level recruits for next year and the following recruiting classes. What more do you want from the guy?

Harbaugh did the same thing last year is he a bad recruiter? A tad insane? Yes but a damn good recruiter

Pushback from an established, knowledgeable community member is different from someone who shows up, starts a rant, and then goes off the rails. His logic isn't good (because there isn't any), therefore I agree with what cds7c said. And, I mean, you even mocked the guy above, too.
