There are different ways to raise money
First vt has their group as weel but vt parition them to donate only to academics- this will change when vt advancememt takes over hokie club
Also vt needs fo to ensure university graduating right mix of highly skilled folks thst can conpete and earn the same level of weath. Its doing it now
Others its recaptialization
Real estste development mixed use
Naming rights
Premium offerings
Got to get an entrepuener ad in business developmwnt thst can out think the resst
However fbe challenge is mamy fans want to embrace the past - including game experience; and town refusing development - vt might have to use their land and ignore blacksburg
At uva they are evisioning scott atadium into premium aeating envieonment ; box seating and service and charge thouaands for rhe service. They are marketing a wonderfuk wine drinks on town and a premium experience in acott. And participants can write a check and uva adcamcememt right there
I think the problem i see is vt fans thinking small. And accept rrisk .
