THe foundation under Whit not the best
I did a quick Bio
Bellein NO EXPERIENCE, been there too long
Chris Helms since 1999, mostly internal
Danny White, (heard he will be WHit choice for GM (gawd) all he has experience is ministry.... no significant experience in the business except VT
Several stafff experience JMU or smaller second level schools
Our new Finance Officer who came from clemson, dont have the experience of big time financing. He was a clhristiansburg native who work his way into leadership at clemson, but trained in the old ways, when the new AD at clemson got in (while the guy was nice, when VT came calling, there was no sorrow, and they got a top notch CFO for clemson from either SEC or NFL. see the difference
not a portfolio for a 150-200 millilion dollar business in big industry college sports
My take for GA Tech, (he's heard VT is high for candidate for Big 10 (with VA) and they may be left out, so their target (as well as NC State) is beat VT in the game... We are sleepy hollow in the bubble of blacksburg. (I dont know if that perspective in both athletics of Burress Hall (BOV/President) We will see
I also hear that its shaky to change during these turbulent times. We are seeing changes at GT
