Can we snag JMU's AD and then go after Curt Cignetti at IU? Both
have connections in Virginia.
Pry makes $4.5-$5M
Curt makes $8M/year.
Pay the extra money for a winner and instead of flushing it down the toilet on someone like Pry

or something. Jeff Bourne has a masters degree from Tech and worked here for about 10 years under Braine.
He built JMU football from nothing, won 2 FCS championships and they're now one of the top G5 programs. Their success has been across 5 different head coaches. He built a program that as of late has been better than ours with a fraction of the resources.
Plus they won a national championship in W Lax in 2019 and and M NCAA tournament game two years ago. And he hired Kenny Brooks before we did. Brooks, Byington, Cignetti and Houston were all great hires.

He would need to find a way to get in-state talent but would need help with NIL to keep them.....or just keep loading up fresh batches of talent which are LSU bound after we get a year or two out of them.

. . . baseball there and sort of started his career in sports marketing. Jeff Bourne was the AD there from 1999 to 2024. His successor is former VT tight end Matt Roan.
