Just setting it up for those paying attention :-). One of the best things

that will come from the House lawsuit settlement is the ability to add scholarships to sports like baseball (assuming we pay for it). If that happens, the playing field will level big time for VT. And then we don't have to compete against Duke, UVA, UNC, Notre Dame's, and Stanford's endowment's. Will be a tremendous advantage in catching up. ** Edited by VTScoop at 5/22/2024, 9:32:18 PM

Yes sir. I left out that golden, encouraging nugget. That's good for VT.**
Will StewartAdmin • 05/22/24 09:34 PM ET
All due respect…. I don’t think that matters.

It's surely not the only answer VT needs.

Fair point on Duke and its niche to get a degree (MBA) from Duke

I have always thought VT should be upper third ACC…. Consistently.

VT seems to have health issues with its best arms annually

Pitching (coaching) is an enormous problem and obvious to anyone
