I had a conversation with some FSU fans when we were there

They thought Lonni Alameda would be interested in the A&M job because she was frustrated with the support she was receiving from the university (mentioned a new scoreboard).

Since then she has a new contract so it may be a mute point, but it was interesting conversation.

I know that Pete got a new contract this year...
HokieJack • 04/25/22 05:51 AM ET
Extended to 6/30/25 $215k base salary
UVA_SBDad • 04/25/22 01:40 PM ET
UVa
Techdady • 04/25/22 02:07 PM ET
If UVA is paying Jo 90k, thats a steal. It took a few years but UVA

Steal
Techdady • 04/25/22 08:54 PM ET
Yeah I agree, we were competitive under Thomas but he was sent packing.
VTMedic513 • 04/25/22 09:00 PM ET
Gloating?
UVA_SBDad • 04/25/22 02:27 PM ET
"Haven't had much nice to say about your coach." Nominee for understatement
HokieAllMyLife • 04/25/22 03:21 PM ET
We know you hope Tech does not keep him.**
dallasvt • 04/25/22 02:46 PM ET
It looks like the only VT head coaches...
HokieJack • 04/25/22 02:05 PM ET
Incentives
Techdady • 04/25/22 02:20 PM ET
Whit will get this done. Won’t happen til the season is over, though.
HolidayInnHokie • 04/25/22 12:18 PM ET
VT needs to start charging for tickets to produce some extra SB funding
UpperQuad • 04/25/22 11:56 AM ET
Whit's last comment to me..."we do need to consider it"
VTChip • 04/25/22 01:08 PM ET
Logistics on tickets
VT_AD • 04/25/22 03:15 PM ET
I was told that the $5 fee often quoted here VT only clears $1. Probably
Nelsonia Hokie • 04/25/22 03:20 PM ET
You must be talking about the IRS, after taxes.**
carhokies • 04/25/22 05:39 PM ET
Whoever told you that was a bureaucrat.
HokieJack • 04/25/22 04:52 PM ET
Don't discount that Pete wants to be here. When he was working at Kennesaw
VTMedic513 • 04/25/22 08:46 AM ET
a new contract and a commitment to some facility upgrades/improvements.**
squarerootofone • 04/25/22 08:29 AM ET
Anyone know the terms of that contract off-hand?**
VT_AD • 04/25/22 08:27 AM ET
Actually was able to find it
VT_AD • 04/25/22 01:08 PM ET
Chip had said Pete asked the new contract not be publicized so would likely
VTMedic513 • 04/25/22 08:44 AM ET
I would respect his wishes not to publicize it.**
delawarehokie • 04/25/22 03:58 PM ET
I'm fine with it being none of our business
HokieR • 04/25/22 11:00 AM ET
Why for "a while longer"? Why not for a long time?**
LTHokie • 04/25/22 07:49 AM ET
That's not realistic, long-term.
Will StewartAdmin • 04/25/22 08:20 AM ET
And that could be a school like Texas A&M
VTsportscaster • 04/25/22 10:19 AM ET
I had a conversation with some FSU fans when we were there ◄
VTChip • 04/25/22 11:53 AM ET
Interesting indeed, especially if Evans does retire/let go
VTsportscaster • 04/25/22 11:16 PM ET
Had to have been between their "K Time" cheer and them screaming "Drop it"
HokieAllMyLife • 04/25/22 01:03 PM ET
I was not really speaking to the $ amount. The original poster only said
LTHokie • 04/25/22 09:39 AM ET
NIL vs. coaching salaries is an interesting optimization problem
The_Phew • 04/25/22 08:32 AM ET
Will, if his contract was renewed, what is the total annual compensation?
carhokies • 04/25/22 08:27 AM ET
Found this from mid-2021.
dallasvt • 04/25/22 01:33 PM ET
That's one of couple places I remember seeing his salary & thank goodness
carhokies • 04/25/22 01:42 PM ET
The current seating capacity of the softball stadium is 1,024.**
HokieJack • 04/25/22 12:45 PM ET
As others say in this thread, Pete's extension was not publicized.
Will StewartAdmin • 04/25/22 11:24 AM ET
Coach can ask not to publicize but VT is a public state university and they
carhokies • 04/25/22 01:16 PM ET
Exactly, it's out there now - not too hard to find
VT_AD • 04/25/22 01:28 PM ET
It's crazy that the baseball coach makes 3X salary than the track coach,
carhokies • 04/25/22 02:23 PM ET
It may not be as surprising when you considered the TV "value" for each
VTHokie2000 • 04/25/22 02:36 PM ET
How many ACC championships has baseball won--big fat zero-- and still
carhokies • 04/25/22 02:43 PM ET
ACC Championships and even National Championships has no value
VTHokie2000 • 04/25/22 04:18 PM ET
I can hear Chip during his next conversation with Coach. "So Pete, who ya
HokiesBill48 • 04/25/22 12:06 PM ET

Yes and was worried after our Super Regional run but Whit had said he and
