You are ignoring his point just to be an ass. Its tiresome. Fantasticly good the fans are excited and life is good. Fantastically bad and ronnie can't possibly keep him. I'm not confident ronnie won't find a way.

Please make a thread and stay there.

Even if I give DD the benefit of the doubt, the bold is correct.

Win vs #1 Duke = Win vs #351 NCA&T. Any difference is just window dressing. Yay, we’re back here again!

Manning has beaten Duke? News to me. We play in a conference and Manning has not been materially more competitive overall in that conference than name redacted.

what does this mean?

A win over the best team in the conference = a win over the worst team in the conference. Any difference is just window dressing.

It means that his overall Conference record is very comparable with name redacted overall Conference record among the worst coaches in ACC history. That's the bottom line he's a failure

So you believe the following statements:

A 30 point loss to the worst team in the conference is just as competitive as a 1 point loss to the best team in the conference.

A 30 point win over the best team in the conference is just as competitive as a 1 point win to the worst team in the conference.

We aren't talking about a single game we're talking about a 4-year period where their overall conference records are pretty identical.
 
to be fair, the ACC has gotten more competitive in Manning's tenure. The Virginia schools in particular have made tremendous strides recently; it's amazing the difference one great hire can make

But if all of the wins and losses that comprise those overall records aren’t comparable, then what makes the overall records comparable?

If you can’t say that one win is necessarily similar to another, then what allows you to say 21 wins are similar to 24 wins (or whatever it is)? There are a couple of steps missing.
 
If you are willing to accept that margin of victory and quality of opponent make a difference when evaluating a single win (or loss), why would you deny that it makes a difference when evaluating a series of wins (or losses)?
 
At least he's not infecting other threads currently. I view that as a win. Proceed...
 
I love the old "lose 'em close approach". It, and Manning fit Wake Forest to a tee.
