I am thinking the poster may be referencing Boston College.

I have no idea what the hell this is about.

What? Their board is extremely confusing and so is this post

Keep an eye out on Fuente.

That's all I got.  The OP doesn't specify UNT/BC/Philadelphia or anything, and I can't find anything definitely on the internet.

That's the problem with the nickname Eagles.  It could also be the Argyle Eagles, the Valley View Eagles or Don Henley's band.

I kinda knew Blacksburg was in the middle of nowhere VA.  They must all be on dial-up or something so keeping that character count down is important.

Interesting.  The poster is clearly well regarded and has a long history of inside info on their board.  He has connections.  I am starting to think where there is smoke there is fire.  🔥

If this actually happened, Littrell would get a single ounce of confidence from me.

Of course as soon as he loses another 4 or 5 games in a row that confidence will be completely shredded again.

Then again, it's not going to happen, so I'm still looking forward to the day he's shown the door.

Well, it was typed in black, if that's any hint.

The job has to posted for X amount of days before it can get filled. He walked away with $8.75m and it would put him closer to his hometown of Tulsa and has a history with Wren. Him on one side and Bennett on the other could be sweet.

I dunno if I'd want this guy looking over my shoulder if I'm Seth... but if it keeps me in a job (and Fuente most-certainly would produce a QB worth playing), I'd go for it.   
If this pipe-dream were to happen, it would probably be simply due to Wren's relationship with Fuente & generous donor dollars.

If they somehow manage to get Fuente on staff to eventually be a coach in waiting or something, I would be back on board with Littrell. Doubt it happens, but who knows?

If you think that is interesting:

1. The Va Tech Hokies used to be the VPI Gobblers. We are not the only ones with an identity crisis

2. Blacksburg, the home of Va Tech, is the most wired city in America according to Guiness.

3. Roanoke is the largest city near Va Tech. Elvis Presley played there three times.

Thank God we don't use that archaic board format anymore.

Every time I go to another fan board, I'm reminded of how well this site is operated and presented.

Thanks to all that keep GMG running well and easy to use!

I can't remember how to set it up, but I think there used to be a way with Google News to setup email notifications with pre-determined searches/keywords.  Google will automatically email you when a new search result comes up.

Point being, don't automatically assume people are actively searching other message boards.  They might have something setup in Google which lets them know "North Texas" or "Mean Green" was used recently on the internet.

Links to boards like this make me appreciate GMG so much more. I’m sure I could figure it out eventually, but that site is incredibly difficult to navigate and I feel dumber now for spending 4 minutes on there trying to figure it out. I gave up.

Also speaks to the need to not abbreviate everything in our discussions.
