I think MY retires, Odom wouldn’t leave VCU to coach at VT

VCU is better supported and the only show in town, in the P2 world it’s a more desirable job than VT as it currently stands. MY knows how he likes to build a team is a thing of the past, he doesn’t need the money and already got some silverware. I’d say VT goes hard reset on basketball, we won’t fire Whit until after football season next year so I’d put money on us going with a budget bridge hire and basically punting basketball until NIL and rev sharing gets figured out. Could be one of MYs assistants honestly, or we take a shot on a young low major coach.

If the pay is in the 50s and the player money is in the 50s

Correct. VT would have to double CMY's salary to get an Odum or similar HC

If I was CMY I would stay and keep drawing my salary until the end of

He shouldn’t quit. His administration quit on him. Ride it out if I’m him.

Fans should ride it out and stay home too!

Most schools would never elevate an assistant after a trainwreck season.

Yep, sadly a recently likely scenario**

Agree, CMY will retire and Odom won't come to VT. VCU is a better job now.**

There will be several ACC job openings after this season & next.
I love VT! 01/09/25 01:04 AM ET
VT should say to CMY, "we are done"

I disagree
Gman12 01/09/25 11:39 AM ET
I agree. I also think that Whit is the one "not suited..." **

He did not put together good staff.
lazarus1 01/09/25 05:51 PM ET
He has proven otherwise

I’d rather take the 6 million it would cost to buy out his contract and

Certainly possible. That's why I asked about possible replacements if
