Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Glad to see London come away with the award. After last weekend, I thought Grobe or even Beamer could win it. Either wouldn't have been a disappointment, but I'm glad to see London rewarded for the team's body of work this season. Hopefully, London can take the program to a level where an 8-4 season wouldn't even be in consideration for the award. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Variable Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Interview just proves why people like him. This Hokie is a fan. Same here. He has a bright future ahead of him if he can turn things around in Charlottesville. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StoneyCalhoun Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 No doubt London deserves it. That being said, not a fan. Good to see UVA moving up, but the dude complains about EVERY call! Even when it is not on UVA (See Vt last week, holding actual call - he thought it was PI). Maybe it is just the former official in me, but that is just ridiculous to act that way, and it will not get you any more calls in most situations. Plus I like coaches on an even keel most of the time (i.e. Beamer *I know I am a homer) and can not stand coaches like Jones, Holgorson, Kelley, etc. Does screaming at your players really help when they screw up? Doubt it. They are college athletes, they know when they messed up for the most part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMan 3,569 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Hopefully, London can take the program to a level where an 8-4 season wouldn't even be in consideration for the award. Kinda like Beamer has done with VT where he goes 11-1 and doesn't win it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StoneyCalhoun Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Like the time Beamer slapped Ernest Wilford upside of the head. That even keel for you. Yeah he got out of hand and shouldn't have done that. No excuses for a mistake like that. Looking at the bigger picture, he is not even close to the level of the other three, in a list that could be much larger. And in the even bigger picture, why make a back handed comment??? Why call UVAObserver a prick? Shouldn't you be somewhere stealing candy from kids?

deuceswild 15 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Like the time Beamer slapped Ernest Wilford upside of the head. That even keel for you. 1 example 8 years ago of something blown out of proportion. Nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hokie07 11 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 1 example 8 years ago of something blown out of proportion. Nice. He's got a point, though. VT coaches are brash and they don't appreciate that kind in Morgantown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 rumor has it that Penn St will contact London Already happened, London didn't even talk with them. Kinda like Beamer has done with VT where he goes 11-1 and doesn't win it... I said it earlier, but this year is one of Beamer's best coaching jobs. He should've right in the mix, but coaches who have umpteen winning seasons in a row don't get considered. It was telling that Groh won the award twice in 9 seasons...

bhs7695 185 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Rich Rod never held back on his players when he verbally bashed them. Some of the worst language you've ever heard several WVU fans have told me that witnessed it up close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
