It’s definitely frustrating, no point in getting excited about recruiting

When it’s not even guaranteed you’ll get one year from a player, much less 3-4. Some regulations need to be put in place for sure.

Where is Hysier Miller?
McHokie78 • 10/19/24 11:08 AM ET
Easy to connect the dots on this one
catdaddy • 10/19/24 06:19 PM ET
You're a lot like YOU describe CMY: You come in here and throw crappola
ancient alien 2018 • 10/23/24 10:39 PM ET
I haven't heard anything about NIL being an issue here.

If TSL has access to the WAPO, check out the recent NIL article on %
tallahasseehokie • 10/22/24 06:28 PM ET
Great news. Do not care about the NIL part, but Rech balling out!
catdaddy • 10/21/24 01:38 PM ET
That's very interesting. Still experience is important to have.**
atlhokie1 • 10/21/24 01:21 PM ET
So to be fair
Vippie1 • 10/20/24 09:32 AM ET
Shouldn't these situations be manageable given some minimal organizational

Good post. It's self-contained. Asks a question and then answers it.👍**
saret • 10/21/24 12:07 PM ET
Like 75% of what you suggested is against current NCAA rules...
GCHokie34 • 10/20/24 11:12 AM ET
Maybe. But explain a couple of things. Can the NIL do what I say, but NOT
TDVick • 10/20/24 11:43 AM ET
Prima facie rule says consent given to use name, image, and/or likeness.

Here's a pretty obvious fact about employment situations and why I think
TDVick • 10/21/24 12:22 PM ET
One paragraph in this post sticks out to me.
saret • 10/21/24 01:54 PM ET
Just to be fair. My recollection is that Weaver was the one who botched
TDVick • 10/21/24 05:49 PM ET
Well, as I remember it, one of Weaver's minions (no longer with VT),

That contract was so bad, Whit should have refused to sign it.**
Atlee Hokie • 10/21/24 07:26 PM ET
Well, if he had read it, that might have helped.
saret • 10/21/24 07:27 PM ET
True that.
Atlee Hokie • 10/21/24 08:27 PM ET
Hope springs eternal.**
saret • 10/21/24 08:48 PM ET
Weaver was the first eff up. The assistant was the 2nd eff up. Whit the 3rd
NokieHokie • 10/21/24 07:11 PM ET
No, it cant
GCHokie34 • 10/20/24 11:53 AM ET
Don't we have a disproportionate number of these situations? Rice last year
TDVick • 10/20/24 11:59 AM ET
I don't think that 1 unconfirmed case of it happening is disproportionate
GCHokie34 • 10/20/24 12:57 PM ET
Both you and @TDVick may be right. But with the lack of
saret • 10/21/24 12:14 PM ET
You want more transparency from Whit on what we're playing individual
BG Hokie • 10/21/24 01:30 PM ET
Yes, among other things. I' m assuming you meant paying vice playing

GCHokie34 • 10/21/24 01:56 PM ET
Again, to me, transparency is the ultimate disinfectant.

The contracts are private contracts not
hokiepro • 10/23/24 10:50 PM ET
Very easy for someone whose job isn't on the line to be OK alienating...
GCHokie34 • 10/21/24 06:45 PM ET
It's much easier to look out for the fans/donors. That's what I like to do
saret • 10/21/24 07:24 PM ET
Not violating privacy of your stakeholders isn't operating from fear lol
GCHokie34 • 10/21/24 08:37 PM ET
Hell, Whit doesn't communicate at all. He's bad at it, and he knows it.
saret • 10/21/24 09:15 PM ET
I'm sure there are plenty of legit criticisms of Whit and his dept.
BG Hokie • 10/22/24 07:48 AM ET
Well, everybody is entitled to their opinion, and that is yours.

I don't have an ask here. I was just commenting that neither your

Wasn’t miller heavily involved in the community at Temple?

He was, if it isn’t NIL it very well could just be that he doesn’t like

Yeah, it looks to me that the Rice defection was very likely about NIL.
