They just listed the coach’s at VCU
hokie77th • 03/15/26 02:48 PM ET
You know who the AD at VT is, right. And who the #2 guy is, right?**
Atlee Hokie • 03/15/26 09:39 PM ET
i thought the #2 guy is the #1 guy**
Windows NT • 03/16/26 12:41 AM ET
You're right. Although the FBI was fooled.
KCHokie2 • 03/16/26 12:59 AM ET
remember after Buzz left it was Odom or Mike Young.... welll.....
1947Sunbowl • 03/15/26 04:03 PM ET
Imagine that! The NRV mafia loved that local guy with the nice SWVA drawl.
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 09:37 PM ET
You really hate a drawl, don't you?
HokieNL • 03/15/26 09:54 PM ET
No. I hate the insularity to the point of incestuousness that has caused
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 09:59 PM ET
Really? Seems that you make it a curse word.
HokieNL • 03/15/26 10:06 PM ET
It's just a place-holder for small-time, small-mindedness. But it comes
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 10:12 PM ET
So they fired Seth Greenberg to hire...James Johnson...right right right**
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 09:39 PM ET
No, they fired Seth Greenberg because he wasn't "one of us." And Weaver
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 09:42 PM ET
It took 9 seasons, to get rid of someone who was "not one of us," right?
HokieNL • 03/15/26 10:12 PM ET
No. I make it the fault of "insiders" and not just the administration.
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 11:14 PM ET
Riiiight...hated him so much that they didn't care
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 09:45 PM ET
If he was not liked because he was not "one of us," how did he stay 9 years**
HokieNL • 03/15/26 09:57 PM ET
Whit, not the NRV mafia, made the call to hire Buzz. And it was a hell of
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 09:47 PM ET
Quick question...
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 09:54 PM ET
Weaver (Dunkenberger) and Whit (Young)**
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 09:57 PM ET
So Whit hired Buzz Williams, then decided...
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 10:09 PM ET
Dude, nice strawman. Yeah, the NRV mafia was defiant that they were done
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 10:23 PM ET
Let's say I believe you here.
HokieNL • 03/15/26 10:53 PM ET
"wore out his welcome" is NOT the same thing as lacking character. That is
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 11:01 PM ET
Point is, you seem to say it was because he was "not one of us"
HokieNL • 03/15/26 11:17 PM ET
Yes, we did. Got 'em the very first time at Cassell. Wonder what part of
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 11:23 PM ET
Sometimes that attitude hurt things...
HokieNL • 03/15/26 11:38 PM ET
Greenberg is one of a number of outsiders who found out they weren't

i aint your boy, boy
Windows NT • 03/16/26 12:31 AM ET
Wherever you are "from," using those famous quotation marks...
HokieNL • 03/16/26 12:01 AM ET
That's another total misrepresentation of everything I've posted. Not once
King of Hokies • 03/16/26 12:51 AM ET
VT athletics has been held back by xenophobia?
MP4VT2004 • 03/16/26 09:58 PM ET
I've elaborated all over the place. Go read my posts. **
King of Hokies • 03/16/26 09:59 PM ET
Ok, pal. That's enough.
HokieNL • 03/16/26 01:16 AM ET
It's not just about basketball coaches. One of Brent Pry's major claim
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 10:22 PM ET
Being from VA and having SWVA drawl are not the same thing...
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 11:06 PM ET
Odom was born in NC and spent half his young life there before moving
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 11:27 PM ET
He lived in VA from third grade to 10th grade...
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 11:35 PM ET
Nowhere in my posts or conversations, ever, have I mentioned where someone
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 11:42 PM ET
We should ask someone who lived and worked in both areas...
GCHokie34 • 03/16/26 09:43 AM ET
Moir (success), Young (success, IMO, but you would say not enough of)
HokieNL • 03/15/26 11:03 PM ET
Lol. Allen - putrid incompetent. Stokes - putrid incompetent. Johnson -
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 11:19 PM ET
That’s a fairy tale. 😂**
ombandit • 03/15/26 04:41 PM ET
That's simply not true**
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 04:34 PM ET
What is true? (Not sure I recall your intel on CMY’s hiring)**
HokieSA • 03/15/26 04:51 PM ET
Ryan Odom wasnt in the running...
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 05:03 PM ET
So you’re saying CC and others are lying? Bold strategy **
Brewing_Hokie • 03/15/26 10:30 PM ET
Sorry, you're wrong about this one. It's all over the Subscriber Board...
RUHokie • 03/15/26 07:29 PM ET
Getting him to admit he's wrong about anything may be rather difficult.
KCHokie2 • 03/15/26 08:23 PM ET
Everyone is always wrong except GCHokie LOL**
DDhokie31 • 03/15/26 09:14 PM ET
Your own link says the Baltimore Sun refuted that report ever being true...**
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 08:03 PM ET
I don't think the reporters made up their sources & multiple TSL writers &
RUHokie • 03/15/26 08:43 PM ET
Unfortunately names are floated all the time...
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 08:51 PM ET
Odom absolutely was a finalist, he also interviewed for a number...
Cvillehoops13 • 03/15/26 06:50 PM ET
I can confirm this…
Rev.Zeke Vodka • 03/15/26 09:32 PM ET
I also know this to be true.
I love VT! • 03/16/26 07:59 AM ET
@GCHokie34**
DDhokie31 • 03/15/26 10:17 PM ET
You are wrong. Because GCHokie said so**
DDhokie31 • 03/15/26 09:37 PM ET
Theres a large difference in getting your name thrown in the ring...
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 07:41 PM ET
He would've taken the VT job if offered...
Cvillehoops13 • 03/15/26 09:50 PM ET
Moving those goalposts from Odom wasn't a contender to Odom turned down VT**
HokieRat • 03/15/26 09:04 PM ET
I don't think goalposts have traveled that far since the 1990 UVa game.
KCHokie2 • 03/15/26 09:21 PM ET
Just say you cant read**
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 09:09 PM ET
OP about CMY or Odom for VT coach --> "Simply not true/Wasnt in running"
HokieRat • 03/15/26 09:24 PM ET
Let me dumb it down for you...
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 09:26 PM ET
Dial it down, y'all.**

lazarus1 • 03/15/26 03:41 PM ET
Four more: Head in the Sands**
Stech • 03/16/26 08:29 AM ET
Whit seems to like and accepts mediocrity. **
hokie4ever • 03/15/26 03:58 PM ET
Better to do a spending analysis of VCU to their peers**
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 03:28 PM ET
Im sick of that excuse
1947Sunbowl • 03/15/26 04:06 PM ET
Of course they're not aggressive enough. They are rank amateurs trying to
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 09:39 PM ET
Have you donated every dollar you have available?
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 04:35 PM ET
Horticulture Science is working on the money trees
TomTurkey • 03/15/26 04:37 PM ET
@GCHokie34 isn't making an excuse, he's just stating what you
saret • 03/15/26 04:32 PM ET
Money or whatever, VCU has had a freakin remarkable history of hiring
Vippie1 • 03/15/26 03:32 PM ET
It helps coaching players when you have the most resources...
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 03:37 PM ET
I don't buy the resources excuse. They obviously don't have resources close
HokieKanger • 03/15/26 04:45 PM ET
Guys...think critically for 2 seconds...im begging you
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 04:56 PM ET
Lol. VT should just compete with VCU and stop trying to compete with GT, BC
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 09:40 PM ET
Theres no chance some of you went to college, must less graduated from VT**
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 09:43 PM ET
Dude, you have such a poor understanding of practical application of
King of Hokies • 03/15/26 09:48 PM ET
You make sense...but they beat us by 18 this year....just say'in.**
hok1eboy • 03/15/26 09:33 PM ET
And VT beat UVA...**
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 09:36 PM ET
Everybody they've hired has relatively quickly advanced to "bigger " jobs
Vippie1 • 03/15/26 03:46 PM ET
How many of the coaches who moved on to bigger schools were fired?**
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 11:08 PM ET
Such the contraian always. Not even the point
Vippie1 • 03/16/26 10:59 AM ET
Sonny Smith is another one**

Jeffroww • 03/15/26 09:58 PM ET
Who, in your opinion, is the best coach of those five?**
Femoyer Hokie • 03/15/26 03:39 PM ET
Mike Rhoades**
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 03:42 PM ET
I have always liked him
Moseley Hokie • 03/15/26 05:32 PM ET
Mike Rhoades is getting the Kraft effect
1947Sunbowl • 03/15/26 04:10 PM ET
PSU AD is not interfering with Mike Rhoades**
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 04:29 PM ET
Maybe one more year at PSU and he comes here? **
AnotherTechW • 03/15/26 03:56 PM ET
I mean...Id like it...
GCHokie34 • 03/15/26 04:32 PM ET
Fans are already pissed / who cares lol **
AnotherTechW • 03/15/26 05:15 PM ET
I remember it always being whispered he was the real strength of the Shaka
