Culture = 6/6. We should be 8-4 or better. CBP won't get us there.**
George Baylor • 08/09/25 07:43 AM ET
So the floor for a coach is a constant +2 over your culture and asset base?
VTCALS72 • 08/09/25 09:13 AM ET
Some people get riled up when he is criticized, but I don't see why.
TekkNerd • 08/09/25 07:12 AM ET
Don’t understand why people like him

The results have shown up on the field.. this is the issue with fans
soflahokie • 08/09/25 01:25 AM ET

VTCALS72 • 08/08/25 06:27 PM ET
Personally I like cultures that win.**
UpstateSCHokie • 08/08/25 06:08 PM ET
Agreed. Some cultures just aren't made to last.
