Actually Blacksburg is gorgeous. Imagine CS nestled in the mountains with the blue ridge parkway running through it instead of Hwy 6. That's Blacksburg

I felt that way about Columbia (went to the SC game). I would definitely go back...river runs right through Columbia, beautiful place and the fans were great.

We need a home and away with VT, maybe Bud could make that happen.

Pitt: According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the school has reached out to gauge the interest of Greg Schiano and Marshall head coach Doc Holliday.
Pitt has an interim AD, but is talking to Schiano and Holliday (Marshall)...

looks like Plan A is back on the board

the amount of cognitive dissonance required to connect these (non-existent) dots is simply staggering.


So because Pitt is interested in Schiano, and Foster hasn't been contacted by any school, that now means he's coming?

Foster never said he hasn't been contacted by any school, the article headline did. All Foster said was "Not right now."

Let me guess. There will be a top secret, informative, announcement made later this afternoon regarding this matter.


Will someone PM me the info? Thanks.

What if we're just waiting to promote our interim defensive coordinator instead of actually going out and hiring somebody?

Apparently part of the cognitive dissonance is due to word comprehension

You sound like a bunch of Baylor fans thinking they could join the SEC tomorrow.


How about starting with the assumption that you don't know anything for certain?

At this moment; of course he's a viable option. He's also a candidate to stay exactly where he is. He's not "off the market" nor has he signed another contract. Assuming you know he's staying is just as delusional as assuming you know he's going to sign. The problem is, no matter what he ends up doing; half of everyone will believe they were right about his decision because their own powers of observation were superior to others. The fact will be that you merely ended up being correct based on chance. And claiming that you knew it all along is just as delusional as thinking your sports team won because you wore that lucky shirt.

Enjoy the ride. Give your opinion. But, spare us all your attitude of superiority. You're just as in the dark as the rest of us.

Relax dude - so far: you've called those here that think Foster is a realistic option, "Baylor fans thinking they can join the SEC", insane and delusional.

Foster isn't "realistic" - that is your opinion.

Merry Christmas.


Lets revisit this on Jan 2nd guys. I think a lot of people on here Re going to be eating crow and everybody is going to be extremely happy.


If we hire Bud Foster, I will shoot an actual crow, cook it, and eat it...and I will film the whole thing.

I don't know if he is coming or not. In my opinion, the evidence is strongly pointing to him staying at VT.

Why in the world would a VaTech recruit know if Foster was leaving? That kid will be the last to know.

I don't know how to bookmark on my phone, but I've mentally bookmarked this!

..which should be good until I'm on my third beer tonight.

Crotty- I'll take you up on that. If we don't hire him I'll alologize and say I was wrong. How's that?

Ok. Deal. It makes sense that you only have to apologize given that the odds are so heavily in my favor.

That was the title of the article- not his statement. Read the article. It never quotes him as saying "nobody has contacted me"-only "not now".

You will want to soak it in marinade for a while before cooking it...a strong marinade.

I think we should clarify, Grackle, not crow. Crow would be harder to obtain and there are plenty of Grackles - basically rats with wings.

Foster is off the table. Sumlin wouldn't agree to have him bring his own staff.

Troll- There's no way Foster would leave Beamer empty handed defensively and take all his coaches even if they wanted to come. This is actually an asinine post.

Anyone hearing this one?
Updated by Mark at 7:30 p.m.: Well, here's one from left field. One of my NFL sources texted late this afternoon and said that LSU DC John Chavis had been contacted and has serious interest in the job. In fact, he said he put it the odds of that higher than the Durkin/Mattison combo, and he was the guy who first mentioned that 10 days ago. I don't know how realistic that Chavis really is, but it was the first time I've heard his name -- and considering the source, it bears watching. I would still think Durkin/Mattison is more likely, but Chavis would be a coup.

Chavis would be a bigger scoop than Foster, would also mean Miles is leaving.

Umm false. I didnt say his entire staff, you did. The issue was who Foster wanted replaced and Sumlin didn't want to let them go. It's too much of a turnover for Sumlin.

source? a friend of a friend or an actual link?

Chavis deal sounds like a rumor to either 1) get more money from LSU or 2) someone is trolling A&M and LSU all at once!!!

I bet this is already starting waves on Tigerdroppings.
