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.

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

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

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