after coaching. He still thinks very highly of Virginia Tech fans.

On the flip side I was like why do so many love Pry? While I don't think either of them was the guy for us. Fuente > Pry when it comes to being a HC IMO. I feel like he could coach a G6 team up and be right back in consideration for a P4 gig.

needed a better OC & QB coach, but if he had those things in place, he'd have been successful here.
We hired Justin Hamilton to be our DC, and no offense to Justin as he's a great a dude, but that shows just how little resources we were willing to commit to Fuente.
He could have also used some PR-skills with the Virginia HS scene in recruiting, but no doubt, the guy knows football and can coach. He did not have a great supporting cast here.

I do think that if he changes his mind he would be decent at it. He is only 49, he could change his mind.
