And Fu was highly sought after when he was hired -- fordham 11/17/2021 3:54PM

Not just then. Baylor wanted him < 2 yrs ago. -- marcbvtgm 11/17/2021 6:24PM

I'm not judging the hiring decision. I'm juding the result -- HokieAl 11/17/2021 4:01PM

Ok except he was highly regarded at the time -- fordham 11/17/2021 4:02PM

One sport matters quite a bit more than the rest -- Hokie 04 11/17/2021 3:45PM

We are not judging the hire, just the result. Simple facts, Fu failed -- HokieAl 11/17/2021 4:03PM

No, I agree with that. Just get annoyed at all of the talk about these -- Hokie 04 11/17/2021 3:54PM
