Octo founder and CEO Mehul Sanghani ’98
tallahasseehokie • 01/14/25 01:07 PM ET
Mehul is well informed and would be aware of the hire fwiw**
Hokie83 • 01/14/25 07:26 AM ET
Yeah I’m not disputing that…
ombandit • 01/14/25 08:11 AM ET
Maybe that's the problem. People that rich are usually smarter than Whit
Hokie 04 • 01/14/25 07:38 PM ET
What are you hearing re the hire?**
bburgnative • 01/14/25 07:34 AM ET
Phil Elmassian checks those boxes. :>)**

3TechFanz • 01/14/25 08:25 AM ET
No surprise. Well known that Pry is on hot seat
HokieAl • 01/13/25 09:16 PM ET
He's not on the hot seat w/ anybody but know-nothing message board posters.**
Culpeper Hokie • 01/13/25 10:47 PM ET
You need a TSL subscription if you think otherwise.**
Nortazhokie • 01/14/25 11:52 AM ET
Please...he just fired 3 coaches!! Were they on the hotseat? lol!

Goodness. He would had been FIRED......
JRHokie • 01/14/25 06:20 AM ET
You know that’s not true. You really think there’s no other sub .500 coach
AbsolutVT03 • 01/14/25 01:53 PM ET
VT probably boxed itself in a corner by the way it gave Babcock a lengthy

No guarantee Sands disposes of whit in 2029. **

Should be a plus knowing they can make an impact. A challenge can be good**
40ozDistrict • 01/13/25 10:10 PM ET
He isnt on the hot seat
RiverVT • 01/13/25 09:41 PM ET
I'd be shocked if anyone is on the hot seat with regard to anything related
Tombo • 01/13/25 11:35 PM ET
No kidding. 3 toed sloth moves faster than VT athletics admin. **
40ozDistrict • 01/14/25 12:50 AM ET
Room temperature seat?**
WestyHokie • 01/14/25 06:14 AM ET
Would you give Pry an extension right now? He has 3 years left
HokieAl • 01/13/25 10:58 PM ET
If you are correct that Pry is on the hot seat, then who do you think will
VTHokie2000 • 01/14/25 07:25 AM ET
FWIW in 2021 Babcock was given a contract extension, so his contract

Or maybe it's taking longer because there are multiple good
bburgnative • 01/14/25 07:32 AM ET
Some folks on 247 think it is Quinn**
hokietom87 • 01/13/25 09:12 PM ET
Most of the insiders over there say it's definitely not Quinn.**
Hokie_Forester • 01/13/25 10:27 PM ET

Not surprising. Shoulda been from the start more than likely. **
