The differences between previous head coaching hire press conferences..
The previous ones had the "Gosh, I am lucky that I landed this job at VT." And the mindset of Hokie fans at the time was yes - you are lucky to be here, and we hope you can lead us further than before.
Today, it seemed to be, "You are lucky to have me - I will work with you and get you back up and running, but I am in charge." And the mindset of Hokie fans are, "Thank you."

I honestly think he's excited for the opportunity. It's what converted me.

Not saying there was any conceit - he just wasn't up there feeling lucky...
