Anxiously awaiting the Tony take
VT fans longing for these days:

Beamer should have retired after the Danny Coale non-TD against Michigan and let this program do the slow fade into “nice stories never to be repeated in BLEAKSBURG”. Instead he wouldn’t leave and when he finally decided enough was enough Dumb-As-Shit Whit Babcock made the “sexy” hire with Fuente, who has been nothing less than a complete disaster. I can’t even call this current program CHOKIES because my expectations have been lowered to the point that winning six games would shock me. In fact, if they win four games this season I might actually make a contribution to the athletic department and dedicate it to Sean Glennon.
Not even joking but I saw someone on TechSidelines mention that Les Smiles was interested in the jerb and I was ready to help fund the Fuente buyout right then and there. I’d take JUCO problem transfers, 1980s power run, dirty boosters, “School is number one (holds up two fingers), football is number two (holds up one finger)”, and NCAA sanctions over this SAD! sack of monkey dung we’re likely stuck with until 2021. Hell, them hiring Jerry “Who let the doges out” Kill gave me a brief glimmer of hope for something resembling an actual offense and then last night happened.
Because our BIG BALLER BOOSTER is some tier four Beltway bandit I don’t see them buying out this bum and making another hire that registers as “decent”. In fact, I would not be shocked to see them hire Shane “Dive on Third and Nine” Beamer when Fuente’s contract is up as head corch. When these clowns took the empty NC display case away they waived the white flag of failure.
I actually thought Fuente would be a solid corch but NAW.
He can’t corch and he can’t recruit and he doesn’t even bother to interview the majority of his assistant corches. Throw in that he’s a hard ass with the personality of a ‘87 Z28 sitting on blocks in a trailer park and you’ve got a recipe for putting the FU in FUN.
