Whit Babcock, like him or not, this man did the best he could for VT.

Why didn’t he go to the BOV 7 years earlier with that presentation?

Thank You...**

No, keeping Ballein around was a huge mistake. **
40ozDistrict • 04/23/26 08:10 PM ET
Ballein and Fuente..

Brewing_Hokie • 04/23/26 09:32 PM ET
Then why didn’t anyone else
Planner_Hokie • 04/24/26 01:10 PM ET
Because it’s also well reported Fu didn’t want to do it and wanted to focus
Brewing_Hokie • 04/24/26 01:51 PM ET

Lobbied HARD for more money in 2025 when it mattered most.
jonnyhawk • 04/23/26 05:54 PM ET
I agree, but all the years prior to 2025 under Whit still count.
Hate2SeeItEnd Hokie • 04/23/26 09:29 PM ET
Nope. The BOV TOLD Whit to get that presentation together. **

Yes they did….
