Great Coach and Motivator

He "sold" the program when he was at CofC. In addition to being a great coach he is high energy and reaches out to the fan base and the community. He is a "total package" of what I would want in a head coach if I was an AD... Great Hire for them.....

Weren't Hepburn, Hadley, and Edwards highly sought after in the portal?

How so**

He took a visit there...
GCHokie34 03/16/25 01:36 PM ET
We outbid Louisville for a basketball player?
MFWHokie0607 03/16/25 02:03 PM ET
Outbidding someone for a player doesn't mean high dollars...

Yeah I'm not arguing he isn't a good player...

Hepburn did average 30+ min for 3 yrs at Wisconsin.

My educated guesses for the cost of those cores: Louisville: $2.5M ish for

It can easily be argued Young turned 8-24 into 13-19 this year.
hokieZ71 03/15/25 11:23 PM ET
It can also be argued his previous 3 teams underperformed.
GoldCoast 03/16/25 10:26 AM ET
Very fair points that don’t get discussed much. That ACC winning team was
jfrance41 03/16/25 11:37 AM ET
24/25 was 5-5 on the road?
GCHokie34 03/16/25 11:28 AM ET
Ah, meant previous year and missed a 2nd win (at Lou) so 2-10 overall.**
GoldCoast 03/16/25 04:11 PM ET

OrlandoHokie 03/15/25 10:55 PM ET

hokietom87 03/16/25 06:51 AM ET
Sort of. He was interim AD.
