The newly hired HC will have to be convinced that VT's old way ...

... of doing things have been permanently eradicated.

Bummer...we just missed the podium :>(**

That’s generous. I’d say #6 at best but if Oregon St had a conference, #7.

The talking heads on sports radio all disagree with you
fordham • 10/15/25 11:30 AM ET
I'd agree the ACC is easier and the fan base is top notch. **

Macro environment factors that were true for Fu and Pry
Hokiefied • 10/15/25 12:34 PM ET
Fuente and Pry are not the same, coaching wise.
Atlee Hokie • 10/15/25 02:00 PM ET
100% correct. They failed for different reasons which tells you…

But now VT completely changing the department and adding a ton of $$. Pair

VT has an unproven plan that is funded on paper but not reality
Hokiefied • 10/15/25 01:59 PM ET
I agree the plan may be a paper tiger. Worth looking at as a candidate. **

Temper your expectations & pray VT finds the next Elko or Cignetti
Hokiefied • 10/15/25 02:17 PM ET
Both can be true
GoHokies84 • 10/15/25 01:33 PM ET
Pry was given.....
2hhoop3 • 10/15/25 01:40 PM ET
Pry definitely performed worse than Fu
Hokiefied • 10/15/25 02:10 PM ET
The point is about VT being an attractive option now vs other schools. **
40ozDistrict • 10/15/25 01:51 PM ET
I understood that.....
2hhoop3 • 10/15/25 02:07 PM ET
LOL Sports talk guys disagreeing w/me nearly guarantees I’m right
Hokiefied • 10/15/25 11:39 AM ET
I disagree with UCLA being a better job
GoHokies84 • 10/15/25 08:39 AM ET
They also have relatively few fans.
Atlee Hokie • 10/15/25 02:36 PM ET
UCLA -should- be a better job. It won't be until they care about football.**
reestuart • 10/15/25 02:24 PM ET
It's a P2 job. Enough said.**

Only if there is admin support
GoHokies84 • 10/15/25 11:20 AM ET
The money is there. In a "bank" if you will even though the current AD
VTHokie2000 • 10/15/25 02:08 PM ET
better weather in So Cal**
section11hokie • 10/15/25 10:50 AM ET
And ucla is in a very large financial hole currently
fordham • 10/15/25 10:19 AM ET
UCLA has no money and no fan base
Happy Dog • 10/15/25 10:58 AM ET
Bill Roth didn't think so**
TomTurkey • 10/15/25 10:16 AM ET
Good pull!**

It depends upon what someone is looking for.
