There is exactly ONE private, elite university consistently playing FCS football at a high level and they have a rich 100+ year football history.
I think you mean "FBS" and you're wrong either way

I said I would never post here but.....
Going after Ron Wellman and complaining about the state of Wake Forest football and the state of the athletic program is insanity. Wake Forest has gone to more bowl games in the last 7 years under Wellman/Grobe than in the history of the university before Wellman. Wake Forest has averaged 6 wins a season since 2000. There were 8 combined 6 win seasons in the previous 40 years.
We are Wake Forest, one of the smallest, most expensive, most elite universities playing FCS football. We have one of, if not the, smallest stadium in FCS. We are not, nor will we ever be a football power. There is exactly ONE private, elite university consistently playing FCS football at a high level and they have a rich 100+ year football history.
Ron Wellman is a man who has dedicated his entire career to Wake Forest University. He could have used Wake Forest as a stepping stone to a bigger higher profile job but he didn't. He made Wake Forest home and he made its programs more than most of us ever imagined possible. His fingerprints are all over this university with the Deacon tower, the record Deacon club membership, the soccer stadium, the tennis complex (complete with a showcase professional tournament), the golf complex and so many more positives. It's an insult to Wake Forest University, its students, its student-athletes and its alumni to denigrate the 2 decades of service Ron Wellman has given this university.
In my opinion, the man has made one mistake in 22 years. He hired Jeff [Redacted]. If he would Fire Jeff [Redacted], that mistake would be rectified. Any target other than Jeff [Redacted] makes us appear to be the spoiled brats the administration has made us out to be all along. It's Jeff [Redacted] with the 11% approval rating, not Ron Wellman!
The administration would like nothing better than have us chase Ron Wellman. He's not going anywhere and we look foolish for the effort. Use a little common sense and remember how this mission began. FIRE JEFF [Redacted]!!!

Yes FBS, I kept wanting to say Div 1A.
And I'm not wrong, it's Notre Dame. Stanford is currently good, they are historically BAD.

For the last three years in a row Wake's athletic programs have garnered a last place finish in the Director's Cup. Last year, Wake had the LOWEST finish EVER for an ACC school in the Director's Cup. In fact, we've only finished in the UPPER HALF of the ACC in the Director's Cup competition 3 times in Wellman's 20 year career at Wake. His primary job is to build successful athletic programs. He's had 20 years and he has failed miserably.

joeyd joined on March 12, 2013. What was going on around March 12th? This board was gearing up for our first newspaper ad.
Methinks we've found a mole.

Obviously it's unscientific, but the two polls about Wellman from a passionate portion of the fan who is still here speak volumes. We're looking at good number of diehard fans who changed their mind about Wellman in under 2 years.
Is there any way to get a Wellman fact sheet to some media types in advance of the banner? Anybody writing about this would have no idea how bad things have been under Wellman.
Also keep in mind, the nation is going to find out how bad this guy is during hoops season.

Didn't dv7 try to hand out BuzzOut fact sheets at a basketball game and was accused of "soliciting?"I second the bold. I agree that it'll be really helpful to complement the banner with a fact sheet.
