Duke Week

[twballgame9]

Oh, and you listed 3 WTF losses/ties for Coughlin in 3 years. That Coughlin team wasn't a top tier team - they could upset top tier teams. They also lost shitty games.

OK, so Jags lost to a shitty FSU team, a horrendous MD team, and a pretty good VT team. Logan and Bicknell took a good roster and had some success with them, taking advantage of the most glaring lack of team talent in conference history. Coughlin took a program in bad shape, turned it around quickly, played a much harder schedule, and had them competing with and beating top level teams in the country.

I'm not sure what's blinding you more - the words "ACC Championship Game" or Jags' Crest-whitened chiclets.

Losing to FSU and Maryland will never be losing to Rutgers, no matter how you cut it. And VT was ranked 8th when BC beat them in their house.

And crediting the assistants for all the success is hysterical.

I get it though, its the same reason BC's shitty fans liked the Daywalker - go 9-3 and beat ND and you're a legend forever.

I was just taking a break!

[MrAwesomeII]

I am making a triumphant reappearance here to express my extreme bewilderment at the posters who are once again touting "Jagzzzz". A man suffering from mild retardation and unable to wear clothes or use phones properly, "Jagzzz" existence was most responsible for the program's struggles since 2009. Please look at his life since he left BC. Dont compare "Jagzzzz" to Tom Coughlin. Just dont.

[TontoKowalski]

One thing you're all forgetting - of all these coaches, Dan Henning had the most tight ends. All tight end offense!

[twballgame9]

Wake up the Echoes!

Blame the guy who won 20 games and was here for all of two recruiting cycles. Don't point the finger at Gene and of course don't point the finger at Spaz who couldn't keep a staff together (unless they were breaking up a Spaz fight), was a terrible game manager, and never used all his scholarships.

Win Pct at BC
Jags: .714
TOB: .625
Coughlin: .614
Daz: .566
Bick: .517
Henning: .458
Spaz: .431

You know that's an alias right?

[TontoKowalski]

It isnt just 'an alias'; it's the second iteration of an alias of a Spanish-speaking parody poster of a pretend alias for a sports blogger who isnt ATL.

FWIW, a gypsy once told me that SenorAwesomeIII will be a sort of John-the-baptist for the coming of Tonto's Wang.

Wang Wang Million

[TobaccoRoadEagle]

i think the spanish speaking parody poster arrived sometime after mr. awesome's death and mr. awesomeii's birth.

i do not think the spanish and english speaking screen names are related

[b0mberMan]

Senor Awesome is not affiliated with this version of MrAwesome.

[TontoKowalski]

I love it when two of campion's aliases reply back to tell me that two other of campion's alisases aren't campion. Thanks guys!

[b0mberMan]

And then campion's best alias gets all high and mighty about it. Jerk.

i read somewhere recently that campion joined whalepants in the great beyond. i cannot confirm or deny that what i read was true

i appreciate you saying that i am campion's best aliass, chaz, but we all know that either [space] or herzylax22 was campion's best aliass

[MrAwesomeII]

Gentlemen, I come here to set the record straight. "Jagzzz" conned GDF into giving him the job, rode a great team to a couple of ACCCG's, barely recruited, and acted like a certified flake during his time here. I do not dispute he had a good record, but, hey, Barry Switzer won a Super Bowl, didnt he?? I understand GDF hired him, and then compounded that mistake by hiring Spaziani, but what I posted was that but for the EXISTENCE of "Jagzzz", the program wouldnt have bottomed out like it did. Quod Erat Demonstrandum.

[Dick Rosenthal]

So Duke is apparently discounting tickets because of the complete lack of interest and the impending hurricane. Let's assume that we have a tropical depression on Saturday--heavy rain, winds around 30 MPH. How many fans actually attend this game? 100? 200? It is going to make a 90s Temple game at the Vet look like a sell out.

spaz was there before jags so that part of your awesome explanation doesn't really work.

other than that, good for you

[twballgame9]

This place could use a Jagzzz mopper

that will perfectly sum up the feelings of the few in attendance...

i guess it's cool to be alone"

[tallsy]

Are there people seriously arguing that Jagz was a better coach than Coughlin?

Jags was great, and he worked a miracle in 08 to get to the ACCCG. But let's be real. We are looking at him through the prism of and He inherited a very talented team with #1 draft pick at QB and still lost to Maryland and people are dramatically overrating 07 VaTech who got pistol whipped by Kansas in the Orange Bowl. All of this was in a historically down ACC when cartoon snake won it, and the division made Jim Grobe (33-33-1 at Ohio) look like a genius.

[twballgame9]

The point being made was that memory has replaced 9-3 with a WTF loss and one big win over ND Tom Coughlin with 2-time Super Bowl Champ Tom Coughlin. The Tom Coughlin that coached at BC was a great coach, but people pretending BC reached elite levels then, or did anything to exceed what Jags accomplished, are delusional.

No one was really breaking down their Xs and Os, just their Ws and Ls. Which for most other fan bases is the bottom line.

ummmm, if bc was in the acccg then cartoon snake would not have been in the orange bowl in the same year.

(channelling my best nospace) *hands on hips and disapproving look on face* you see, tallsy, bc and wake forest are in the same division in the acc. each year that bc played vpi in the acccg and lost, vpi went on to play in the orange bowl. cartoonie snake played the year prior when they lost to now conference mate louisville.

i remember this like it was yesterday because i succinctly remember being afraid of my wife and hating all women during each one of those games (end channeling of nospace)

i take it back. hansen is campion's worst aliass

[b0mberMan]

God damnit, people. You have to, at some point, accept that people were good at BC.

Except hansen. He was never good.

I'm talking about the historically down period of the ACC which is obviously more than one year. Just like Grobe's "genius" wasn't based on one year.

[TobaccoRoadEagle]

grobe's genius was based on one year
