Won at Memphis (an impossible job), winning at Va. Tech, offensive guy?

really great coach. wouldn't be opposed

Wouldn't be upset. He has a pretty expensive buyout I think. And he might be happy where he is at now

Not going to leave VT after one year

Don't think many would be opposed to it, but unlikely that he pulls a Kiffin and leaves VT after 1 season.

Should've gotten him last year, great decision on the part of the administration

No
Still prefer the other top choices ATM and don't see him leaving

The deal with him taking over after Beamer was in the works for awhile. He isn't going to leave after a year.

Would take him but I don't even consider him as an option since he has been at Va Tech for only a year.

I agree.
I would not object at all, and would love bending Tech over like that, if he did come.

Some of you guys talk about these success stories at mid-majors like they are such rarities. Memphis was terrible under Larry Porter, but they're not as bad of a program as you make them out to be.
Fuente had two losing seasons and was only 26-23 overall. He did manage to go 19-6 during his last two years.
Tommy West went 24-13 during a three-year run at Memphis from 2003-2005.
Plus, Fuente's replacement is currently 5-3.
I'd say that Fuente is a poor man's Tom Herman for the moment. His track record is more impressive than Fleck for me, but Herman still has more skins on the wall than either coach.
