Agree 1000%! Fuente set VT football back. It did not improve.


Let's be real, take your M&O glasses off. Just look at VT records, at the stats, he was progressively going downhill. Listen to what VA coaches have been saying about him. Relationships with the VA coaches were either poor or non-existent, which helped UNC, Penn State, Clemson, etc to come and take our home players, especially the top 10 every year. There was no sense of urgency with Fuente & his assistants in VA. He was terrible, stand-offish with the VA coaches, media/press and the fans. We can't win every player, but VT has to be able to defend its home state. Fuente didn't get this, he didn't know how to develop/coach players. I will continue to donate to VT Athletics for years to come, but Fuente's $8.75 million is a hard pill to swallow. It's going to take time for Pry & assistants to undue the mess Fuente left behind. I am encouraged, optimistic about the steps Pry has taken so far, he gets it.
