That has crossed my mind.
And honestly I don’t care. I view him as a sugar high for VT. He’s likely to come in, win, and leave within a couple of years looting the program of coaches, staff, and players when he takes a job he actually wants putting us right back in the same place. If he really wanted the job, he would have signed already. Maybe he has in principle and he’s just taking advantage of being unattached to work networks but I’m sensing there’s more to it than that.
