The last time we won an away game was Feb. 24th, 2005.

Since then...

Saddam Hussein was tried and executed...

George Allen went from a 2008 Presidential Hopeful to a disgraced former senator...

I got a job and subsequently two promotions...

Add your own! This is fun!

Jeff Barber was still gainfully employed by the University of South Carolina.

Coach Rocco still called Charlottesville home; Coach Karcher was still working for a living--in Lynchburg.

Jeff Myer was still as the University of Missouri.

Brett O'Donnell was still our Director of Debate.

Sparky wasn't even born yet.

Many of our college freshmen weren't even driving cars yet.

Larry Hubbard was the tennis coach.
I was still working at the bookstore back then.
And since then...I turned 21, became a beer guy at the Hillcats and a prayer leader :D

Wonder if I'll graduate before we win another one? Tonight and Longwood are probably our best chances to break the streak.

AD--Demoted and then fired.
Academic Coordinator/Tennis Coach--fired.
Head Trainer--Demoted and then fired.
Facilities Manager--fired.

Choose to either believe it or not, but there is a common thread there, and perhaps that thread is finally hanging by his own thin thread.

I believe the much thicker common thread there is that 3 of those happened all at once and well before JB came on board. Also, I'm not completely positive but I'm thinking that Fish was not "fired" per se.

You guys are not doing a good job at this game. This is the kind of stuff we're looking for:

It's a statement that makes you think "wow, that seems like a long time ago". Not something that makes you immediately think, "oh, that was only a year and a half ago" Also it's gotta be something national. Not your personal life that we don't care about.

Illinois is horrible this year. Kinda hard to believe they were in the national title game two years ago.

Appalachain fans wanted to fire Jerry Moore for having a 7-4 season and never winning a national championship.

now you're getting it! The app state thing was good I guess, I just had no idea that was the case. And as you know when you have to explain something, it becomes not funny for everybody.

Pope John Paul was alive

New Orleans was a pretty sweet place to live

The Saints were like by no one
