Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 59064, member: 289"] Again, we rehashed the Coach P era a hundred times. I think that if we'd had the sort of success in the McNabb Era Virginia Tech had with Vick and if we'd avoided the 0-62, 0-59, 0-51, 0-49, 0-43 type games and the losses to the dregs of the cofnerence he would certainly have survied the Georgia Tech game. The 1988 and 1999 Virginia Tech teams played competitively in national title games and did not have more talent than we did in the McNabb Era. If we'd had that type of success then recruiting would never have fallen off as it did. The Georgia Tech game was the last straw, not the whole problem. The OTL segment strongly suggested that Reid's public demeanor was a disadvantage to him when the team was disappointing. I agree that if you are winning it doesn't matter. I doubt there are complaints about it after last night's game. The original intent of my hijacked post was to bemoan the fact that such things could matter. [/QUOTE]
