Great comparison, couldn't agree more.
I don't know that Bud has the personality to carry off being head coach as much as he has earned the right.
As a Mets fan I like to compare us to UVA. We only bring in talent for it to die.
I really want to see how Dabo does -Morris, -Boyd, -Watkins, etc.
Didn't we beat* Michigan in the Sugar Bowl a few years ago?
*It was a catch.
Why didn't he have surgery during the season? He was on IR almost all year.

Have you considered that these past 2 seasons might be the "sacrifice seasons" you talk about?
Maybe these are the bad seasons before the great seasons?
Judging by the fan reaction after the past 2 mediocre seasons, I would hate to see what happens if we went 5-8 or 6-7...
I will take the consistency...at least we have a shot every year we are consistenly good...it only takes one year to RISE UP!
He seems like his old self.
set the tone for the whole game.
Blocked punts rock!
How could you neglect to mention our other assets?
If it's any consolation I don't know you from Adam and don't target you not anything. I just read the posts and agree or disagree with the content therein. It's just a coincidence that we disagree on everything :)
Except the Nats, I'm a Nats fan too - see, we do agree on something!
'What the hell is wrong with you people!!!!'
This.
You really think so? Man... I really don't want to eat that t-shirt...
My one top moment would be the beatdown of da U, specifically AJ Hughes laying that dude out and forcing the fumble. A close second would be our defense putting up a respectable game against Bama.
Well phooey. Thanks for the assist.
That is excellent news. Dont know how the future will look but I would not be surprised to see Pep's name come up for the beginning of the Post Beamer Hokies. (Yes I want Bud. No I don't think it will happen.)
Who is this Dr. Surprised and what are his credentials?
You know, he has flashes of Sammy Watkins...
don't know...but he's solider?
Not to detract from your point, but Cody Ross wasn't on the Red Sox team that won a title. He was only there for the 2012 season and was traded to the Diamondbacks last year.
I will never complain about loyalty. Did he wait too long to make a change? Yes. But I'm not going to complain because my favorite coach is too loyal. In the grand scheme of things the past is in the past. His most recent hire was really strong.
In other news, I like you Duffman. You argue with everything I say no matter what it is. Being agreed with is boring.
... barely.
That's because he's coming to Blacksburg to be our new OL Coach!! Boom!
This is just where we differ in opinion. We agree to an extent, that it only takes one year to rise up. Where we differ is that you see 10 opportunities to rise up, and I see 10 failures to do so. After 10 consistently good seasons, one of them should have been great, but none really were.
You see that as doing something right and I see that as doing something wrong. I think that sometimes you have to take risks to take a shot at being great, you (and Frank Beamer) see greatness as something that just happens to you. I would potentially sacrifice consistently good for a shot at great, you and FB would ensure you stay consistently good and hope great happens.
Well great didn't happen, and now were down to mediocre. Will good even happen again before FB leaves? I hope so, but it's hard not to look back at that 10 years and see a whole lot of woulda shoulda couldas.
