Seems to be the only alternative unless you are a factory like LSU. I am still kind of surprised that Virginia Tech let Fuentes go with 43 wins in 6 years. Perhaps, the BC game this year was the straw that broke the camel's back. He may not be the only one as there are rumblings from South Beach that Manny's days at Miami are numbered.
They have higher standards.
VT fans think the recruiting has been bad and that the program is headed downhill with him.
Chadwell at VT? That would have to rip your soul in two lol!
That was kind of the quote. He may or may not have been correct, but WTF? What AD would actually go on record saying that? (besides the obvious)
It was more along the lines of that with the constraints that the Admin and the Provost puts on athletics and, as it more particularly affects the FB team, we should expect no more than seven wins a season.
Again, even if you believe it, why as an AD would you say it publicly. It was unbelievably tone-deaf.
He was a VT grad, I think.
Hey, they’re Virginia Tech! They can do that!
You don't want Fuentes anywhere near your QB room. I live in Northern VA and my son is a VT grad. Fuentes ruined the VT team over QBs similar to what Bill Lewis did at GT. He basically ran off Hooker, now Tennessee's starting QB who is lighting it up. He also ran off the QB who is now the starter for NDST and as usual they are a top tier FCS team. The guys who he kept are worse QBs but they don't look like the 2 he ran off. Take it for what it's worth. VT fans have loudly been cheering Fire Fuentes at several games the past 2 years.
