A lot has changed in college football in the seven years Butch Davis and Chuck Pagano have been coaching in the NFL. But they were reminded this week of one thing that hasn't changed: Virginia Tech is solid across the board and represents the very definition of a program. "When your kids are truly committed, they're in the boat and drinking the Kool-Aid, they're growing up and maturing and buying into the program, that's when things start to happen," Davis said this week about his Tar Heels, who are 1-3 and face a stiff challenge Saturday in Blacksburg.
