Feel free to dislike their coach, team and fans. I do. But don't let the fanboy in you blind you to the fact that it is one of the finest universities in this country, just because one of their early contributors was a tobacco farmer. If that's the case, you might want to consider that you live in a country which achieved it's independence because of a few tobacco farmers, among others.
