From hiring an inexperienced HC with no prior hc experience, and allowing that HC to hire 2 inexperienced OC and DC's. This same guy who approved the worst sports apparel deal out of all P5 schools when he was hired. He's planning now to renew that horrific deal for another 5 years, extending our underpayment compared to every other P4 school. Even the Fuente hire was suspect as he hired a coach whose record was like 26-23 at the time of his hire. Then extending Fu's contract twice despite worsening performance, leading to a huge buyout. I estimated once that he's cost VT over $20 million due to his errors. Babcock's judgement has been as bad or worse then Pry's over the years. Its like the blind leading the blind here at VT. ** Edited by n2beaches at 9/8/2025, 12:28:15 PM
