And all the other coaches amount to?

$5 mil alone is not near enough for a guaranteed winning HC**
fordham 11/27/24 08:24 AM ET
There's a very clear pattern... hiring a good HC ain't rocket science.

Whit whiffed on multiple coaches

So Shane Beamer and Jamey Chadwell were never even options?

A good AD won't allow his/her hands to be tied, i.e., continue with Pry if

Lmao. Seriously? Do you know what LSU is paying out each year to not win
UberHOKIE 11/26/24 01:30 PM ET
Not sure what you're saying. No new AD worth anything will allow an

Well yes they do. That's my point**

No coach signs without a contract

They aren't going to pay out 10+ million bucks either then

I believe every game was sold out this year for football
hoosnowahokie 11/26/24 12:56 PM ET
You do understand there is no money tree
fordham 11/26/24 12:25 PM ET
This is why I want to see VT look to land in a non-NIL league.

Don’t worry we are close to the whole charade collapsing
fordham 11/26/24 01:14 PM ET
Agreed. FB is ~ 75-80% of Total Revenue.

Really..**
JRHokie 11/26/24 11:42 AM ET
But how much do we lose in lost revenues? **
Hokie98 11/26/24 11:40 AM ET
Not so much as some think IMO**
hokeyhokie 11/26/24 12:39 PM ET
TBD....But, probably less than buying out 2 or more contracts at this point
vtchem75 11/26/24 11:58 AM ET
You are assuming new coaches would turn it around

I don’t think canning your staff every 3 years is a recipe for success

It is when hire coaches that Can't Coach !
