Also Whit is doing ALOT, for leading the program
1. BOV, President all totally support Whit. but Whit has ALOT on his plate at one time, and MUST of it is not in the public. For example
Re-captilization/ budget flexibility for conference instability. He working behind the scenes (with a close door team)to ensure VT financial state is prepared if needed to readjust conferences. This includes minimize debt, no unnecessary payouts etc. He' hired a CFO for athletics, from clemson ) to update the finances and modeling for VT. WE are doing ok, but need for new revenue streams. (the day of the old hokie club local chapters are really things of the past.)
Increasing new revenue sources. He recompeted from Leerfield to Playfly, (this is not a change radio stations, but naming rights, media venues broadcast rights, and total fan environment during all venues. Plyfly expertise is generated new revenue streams, experience including national marketing for naming rights, national rights for events etc. Leerfield was for 30 plus, and they were not interested in update but flatline, we got a huge bump.
Redoing apparel contract. Heard up for recompile. Hopefully new entry increases rights and benefits.
Re-seating of all venues
Instability in Women's basketball and men's basketball.
None of these items are easy and must be implemented the same time.
Whatever direction they are going, they know what they are positioning for and the small tactics of daily programs (execept football) can be managed.

I am a Whit basher but it is towards football.

That’s confusing. NCAA didn’t allow unlimited transfers or NIL. Courts

I'm more angry with the B1G & SEC power brokers - NCAA is toothless.**
