gladly. coker and the canes dominated the big east 2000-2003 and then moved on to the acc. after 2 years in that conference, they've played 16 conference games, and with the talent the canes have had recently, i don't think they've lost 7 games in a two-year time span, especially not seven conference games

now that i think about it though, has frank beamer possibly done the same at va tech?

on the non-conference switch eligibility, i'd say one's eligible to do it are Fran (10 wins at Bama, would need 10 at ATM--most wins 7)

at least that i can think of.


edit: out John L. Smith

at least that i can think of.
louisville wasn't in a bcs conference until recently, so they're out. i'm pretty sure beamer probably did it though

10 games in a season. i'm too lazy to look up Miami right now....but the cat who asked me the trivia question took Coker as an answer. maybe you are right Ruf....and it's only Beamer.

either way, i'll be happy to drink a McEwen's in you name as well.
