FIRE CAPEL ! ! !

This team, and coach, are pathetic.

I still think Capel is a pretty good coach, but he's had some unfortunate circumstances, and it may be best for him and the university to part ways.

 

It's only November... it's only 2010 for cripe's sake. Can we at least wait till 2011 before starting these threads? Hell, even Va Tech bounced back from losing to James Madison in football.

 

VT did well last year. And we're now 32-36 without Blake Griffin. As far as I can tell, Capel doesn't know his *** from a hole in the ground without BG out there. Look at all of his recruiting flameouts/busts too, if you're going to defend that aspect of his regime. We need a fresh start.

 

Fair enough, but doubt Joe C will fire a coach midseason without something really earth shattering (i.e. NCAA major infraction)

 

I agree. If it happens it'll be at the end of the season, but I really think it needs to happen, for both parties' interests.

Did stoop troup just start a "fire" thread? Well, I guess considering what happened, maybe its not THAT suprising.

 

Patillo....and Warren....Mason-Griffin and Gallon.....and Chaminade. Each of these is a finger. When StoopTroup closes his hand it becomes a fist. And if, he wishes, He can turn it against Capel.

 

Rationality?Really? What are you thinking?

Boom

 

Oh come on guys...He doesn't need to fired. Be thankful we have him. Remember the John Blake years? Definitely better than that right?

oops wrong sport.

I personally would like to see Capel get at least this year and, if he can show he's going to put together a solid recruiting class, next year as well. I have to cut the guy some slack for pulling in 3 MCD AAs that turned out to be complete turds. What are the odds of that?

However, if this year goes as expected, and his recruiting prospects look grim, then I don't see any reason to believe he's going to get things rolling after that. IOW, if he hasn't bottomed out, right now, I don't really want to see how low he can dig the hole. In that scenario, I say turn him loose at the end of the year.

 

If you don't know how to handle blue chippers, the odds are pretty good.

 

Don't think there's enough to conclude that yet. The 3 in question really look to be low-character guys. I think the better argument would be that he he wasn't able to properly assess their character.
