Yep. Since when is 19 wins a bad season for VT basketball? I know it was

very disappointing not making the NCAA, but there has to be something between being awful and making NCAA. Especially when you don’t have a strong historical basketball resume. Especially when the money is not sufficient to be a big dog. When you can’t win it all, you wrestle back and finish as high as you can. Thats the way it used to be. Back when fans and donor’s had a voice.

So much of the idea behind increasing the athletics budget by $50-60MM
