Wait, what!?!?

Didn't Golden coach there previously?

How did they let him get away!!

What!! According to the Golden lovers we had to hire him FAST before Virginia or Syracuse scooped him up? Are they not aware of all the IF's that his crew speak of? If he had a good OC, If he Didn't loose a few recruits? If he didn't have D'Onofrio, If the players bought in to his system. If they liked tie's on south beach; He would be a great coach, IF he wasn't a used car salesman impersonating a coach, he really would be a coach,
Virginia really screwed this up. That's good for Rutgers Right?

Why didn't we have him on a list? THis is why the search team might get someone that's is still working. This coach beat quite a few good teams even though many years of 8-5.

They're paying him 3.35 per/ 5 yr deal

Wow, great hire for Virginia!

Really surprising hire considering his background. From Utah and his father played for byu. Surprised he decided to take a job east.

yet another schiano fail.

Is going from BYU to UVa a step up in coaching? BYU seems like a pretty good program.

listen to some things on the radio. they said he has wanted out for a few years. he almost left last year. he is not happy with the fans at byu. they expect byu to win every game. he turned down a job a few years ago wife was pissed because she saw what he went through at byu. 99-42 never had a losing season
