No matter what you pay them

If they do bad, they’re gone. If they do well, they’re gone. The only solution is to get someone that is vested in and really cares about VT; the school, the people and the faithful. I was hoping that we would go with Price the last time but we get what we got. Once we find that person, we must be patient. Just as we did in Beamer. However, with our current AD situation, we can only dream.
