He took Clara Strack with him. If he'd just left Clara Strack, I'd actually be okay with the whole thing. Kidding/not kidding. 😅 Here's the thing about Kenny Brooks and Buzz Williams ... they were accomplishing everything they needed to here, yet they still left. Buzz's 2018-2019 team was good enough to win a national championship, if Justin Robinson hadn't gotten hurt (and *especially* if Chris Clarke hadn't gotten kicked off the team). Kenny went to a Final Four, and if he could just coach a lick in the fourth quarter, he would have made the championship game, and (I think) won the natty. I think that's the biggest reason fans are upset with both. It wasn't like VT screwed up the situation with either coach. They were both doing very well here, and both had lifetime tenure, if they'd wanted it. But neither wanted it. That speaks to a "VT isn't good enough" mentality for both, and that, my friends, is what rubs so many Hokie fans the wrong way. You can talk about money, resources, and other factors all you want, but I think that's the essence of it. It's the jilted lover syndrome. "I gave you everything I had, and you still walked out."
