Fuente was so overrated. That's a program that is in full rebuild. Inexcusable if we lose to them.
 
First game, new coach, against a program with a solid coach in Turner Gill. This may be a struggle for three quarters, but the Hokies should be able to pull away late.
 
It's just classic VT. Not really indicative of how they end up competing in the conference.

Ok, I have to ask....what evidence do you have Turner Gill is a solid coach?

true, they have started off like crap before and ended up having a decent season, i remember the year they lost to james madison, but their talent level doesnt look the same as it used to

What he did at Buffalo, he built that program from nothing to a bowl team. His tenure at KU was a greasefire, but outside of Glen Mason and Mark Mangino, EVERY coach's tenure at KU over the last 30+ years has been awful. Frankly, he should have stayed at Buffalo, and kept building, with the hope of getting a better job. You don't take a crappy Power 5 job as your first major job, that's how you end up ******** yourself long term.

He's overrated based on 1.5 quarters of football in Week 1? If the 'Canes aren't up by 50 by halftime today, is Richt garbage? Stupid people make snap judgments, intelligent people look at the entire body of work. Let's give him the season, and grade accordingly.

So if someone took, say, Temple from nothing to a bowl team, that guy would be a solid coach?

FYI, Turner Gill was 20-30 at Buffalo, including 5-7 in his fourth year.

In 2010 they opened with losses to BSU and James Madison. They went on to win the ACC.

The flip side is 2014, when they beat eventual national champion OSU in the 2nd game. They went on to finish 6-6.

I kind of agree. Not sold on Fuente but why judge him on the 1st half of the 1st game of his tenure? Larger sample size please.
