I think he'd likely dream of such a job, though I bet they to young and up-and-coming with the hire.

Here's a fun trivia question to go with that. Boston College does not have the word 'university' in its name. Who are the other three FBS schools that do not?

Kind of surprised there aren't more "college" schools in FBS.  But would the other 3 be the service academies?  That's what popped into my head.

College of Charleston?

Villanova? (I've never seen it as Villanova University)

College of WIlliam & Mary?

What did they line everyone up shortest to tallest and assign them two to a room?

Meant four, not three, of which all were guessed. It's the three service academies and Georgia Tech. Virginia Tech is Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. Was only talking about FBS schools, not division I basketball schools. Confusing on a basketball board, I know. I'm quite a fan of fun trivia questions and got his one this summer.

Didn't know about the State University part-thanks for sharing.  I have a friend who went to VT and to be random he always says he went to the Virginia Polytechnic Institute.

You will sometimes see fans of VT rivals mockingly refer to them as "Vippy Sue". That's the only reason I knew about the "SU."
