TechSideline.com Managing Editor David Cunningham joined The Fast Lane on Wednesday, May 13 and discussed:

  • Is Virginia Tech in a spot where football spending must take priority even if it's at the expense of men's basketball?
  • How real is this concept: $1 million goes much farther in sports outside football & men's basketball?
  • How aware was the Virginia Tech admin that the real costs to support James Franklin might exceed the estimated costs when hiring him?
  • What's your confidence in the pieces added to Virginia Tech men's basketball?
  • How much of Virginia Tech softball not hosting a regional is due to the AD void?
  • What needs to happen to Virginia Tech baseball this weekend against Clemson (to boost their NCAA Tournament résumé)?

About Tech Sideline

Tech Sideline is an independent publication, not affiliated with the university or its athletic programs, so we provide a unique perspective that appeals to the large and growing fan base of Virginia Tech Athletics.

Tech Sideline was launched on March 12, 1996 by 1987 Tech graduate (BSEE) Will Stewart as a small, personal web page. In 1997, the site evolved into HokieCentral.com, and in August of 1999, joined the SportsWar network of college sports web sites. In November of 2000, the site changed names to TechSideline.com, or TSL. Over the years, TSL has grown into what you see before you: a full-time Virginia Tech sports media company, complete with web site, podcast, YouTube channel, and large and active social media presences.
