What's this?

Couple of things

some of their losses were close and could have gone other way, so it's not THAT bad on the surface. I haven't followed closely, but haven't heard they are nearly as banged up and losing as many starters as we have, plus there is the get up for UVA factor that they in most years seem to have wanted that game way more than we have and raise their play a notch higher for us than we have for them.

Welsh/Beamer vs. Groh/Fuente -- AmericanHero247 11/22/2020 09:19AM

I'm a Giants fan and Groh is one of Parcells' guys -- 3West 11/22/2020 12:06PM

Was more confident we'd maybe beat VT about 2 to 3 weeks ago -- Oregon Hoo 11/22/2020 11:39AM

What do you call losing 5 games in a row if uva is limping???? ** -- hooman#1 11/22/2020 12:06PM

Couple of things -- Oregon Hoo 11/22/2020 12:12PM

The worst team they played beat them 40-14. The wheels -- hooman#1 11/22/2020 2:04PM

I hear ya, but I've heard this song and dance from them before -- Oregon Hoo 11/22/2020 2:26PM

2018 and 2020 hokies are very similar IMO -- hooman#1 11/22/2020 4:23PM

I'm still angry about that game -- AmericanHero247 11/22/2020 4:34PM

Exactly. People wrote them off in 2018 and they were actually worse then -- HooWorldOrder 11/22/2020 12:17PM

Always tough to follow a legend ** -- Brother Griswold 11/22/2020 11:26AM

Initially, Groh had a great staff of assistants and turned it into -- foxtrott 11/22/2020 11:03AM

Nepotism undid Groh -- 4thYear5th 11/22/2020 11:31AM

I think fuente -- rives 11/22/2020 11:02AM

Great comparison. LF was 33-20 his first 4 years at UNC, JF is 32-20 -- HowBoutThoseHoos 11/22/2020 12:41PM

Great points -- rives 11/22/2020 12:46PM

Absolutely. He is Larry Fedora part 2 ** -- HooWorldOrder 11/22/2020 11:21AM

Did people think Groh was a great hire at the time? I remember most -- hawkb 11/22/2020 10:57AM

I thought Groh was an excellent hire. ** -- Greg

People did think Groh was a great hire at the time -- BuckHoo 11/22/2020 1:02PM

I thought Groh was a much better hire for us than Fuente was for VT -- HooWorldOrder 11/22/2020 11:19AM

Groh was a gr8 hire-b/c Sandusky was the alternative -- Mlmac 11/22/2020 11:13AM

We don’t owe anyone in happy valley. Uva from the get go -- hooman#1 11/22/2020 12:09PM

This board generally thought it was a great hire. -- confuzionrains 11/22/2020 11:01AM

Groh was indeed. Attrition and keeping guys eligible no easy feat at UVA ** -- HooWorldOrder 11/22/2020 11:20AM

The Cop = Shame Beamer -- Warrior Wahoo Wolverine 11/22/2020 10:49AM

Here’s the biggest difference to me between these coaching groups. -- aficionadHOO 11/22/2020 10:21AM

That's a good point. Welsh and Beamer were from the old, old school. ** -- vwahoov 11/22/2020 10:54AM

Could VT invoke force majeure to get out of paying Fu on his contract -- JR_Hoo 11/22/2020 10:17AM

Lol no. ** -- HTrain90 11/22/2020 10:51AM

Never hold up in court. They're so stuck with the terms of the contract. -- SW_CTHoo 11/22/2020 10:38AM

I liked Groh, and thought he deserved another season or two. ** -- vwahoov 11/22/2020 10:16AM

Groh would've been successful if he had paid minimal attention to the areas -- confuzionrains 11/22/2020 11:04AM

Easy in theory, but as we all know, very difficult to execute ** -- HowBoutThoseHoos 11/22/2020 12:47PM

Groan was an arrogant jerk hoo believed he could do no wrong. Threw -- WahooKnows 11/22/2020 12:38PM

.....attrition ** -- GoochlandHoo 11/22/2020 11:23AM

If Sewell had played his junior year, Groh's still coaching here -- Williamsburg Wahoo 11/22/2020 10:22AM

Or if Peter Lalich wasn't a huge miss. Verica in 08 sealed it regardless ** -- HowBoutThoseHoos 11/22/2020 12:58PM

Hope they keep him as long as possible -- hooman#1 11/22/2020 10:14AM

I bet tech try’s to cancel the game and avoid another L ** -- Wahoo_Weav 11/22/2020 09:51AM

More likely that VT-Clem gets cancelled. -- HTrain90 11/22/2020 10:55AM

Clemson must play or miss ACCCG -- Fred F. 11/22/2020 1:04PM

Interesting take. I think you may be into something here. ** -- Wahoo_Weav 11/22/2020 11:50AM

Clemson/VT is 2 weeks away. It will likely be played -- HooWorldOrder 11/22/2020 11:23AM

I could easily see Whit cancel the Clemson game due to "concerns" re CU's -- HoosForward 11/22/2020 11:02AM

By the way, I wouldn’t necessarily fault VT. -- HTrain90 11/22/2020 11:08AM

THis story plays out at just about every institution that HAD a great coach -- GoochlandHoo 11/22/2020 09:32AM

Can Tech afford to fire JFu at this point? ** -- RyDogg 11/22/2020 09:27AM
