I agree. And, I'm not butt hurt that he left. He came, he coached,

he left. As I've said on here before, if anyone should feel violated, it's Whit. He overpaid him initially, gave him annual $50k raises despite his record, allowed the nepotism with his daughters, played his one daughter over Aisha Shepard (who went to the WNBA) and thus slowed Aisha's progression. And all the things you mentioned are just factual factual history. God Speed to KB, you did well for yourself. Who's next up?

P-O-R-T-A-L Not the instrument availability but the process fluidity

No "Quick Draw" Just a Question !!!
JRHokie 03/30/24 11:17 AM ET
Whit is a good AD, he has a list and has a way better than average
VTCALS72 03/30/24 12:34 PM ET
I didn't expect anything different this soon.
HokieR 03/30/24 07:02 AM ET
It's not like VT was interviewing coaches before the end of the season...
EDGEMAN 03/30/24 07:27 AM ET
Really..
JRHokie 03/30/24 07:49 AM ET
Whit knew he had interviewed, but do you think Whit really thought KB would
UpstateSCHokie 03/30/24 08:23 AM ET

Exactly!
GphiGhokie 03/30/24 09:19 AM ET
Maybe UK thinks they're getting KB and GA as a package deal 🤫**
TomTurkey 03/30/24 12:09 PM ET
End of the day VT could have matched the raise

My daughter went to UK. Lexington is a cool city but the campus isn't that
bburgnative 03/30/24 11:59 AM ET
If only coaches and players choose by the beauty of the campus, eh? :(**
NokieHokie 03/30/24 01:36 PM ET
M ore misplaced Whit blame
VTCALS72 03/30/24 08:53 AM ET
Whit hasn’t really missed, even Fuente was masterfully done
soflahokie 03/30/24 09:20 AM ET
Some of the extensions have been very questionable..**
Hokie83 03/30/24 09:35 AM ET
Not Whit. Say it ain't so.🙄. Heck he thought he
VTMONEY94 03/30/24 08:39 AM ET
He did not think he could keep Buzz
Hokie83 03/30/24 08:47 AM ET
That's good to know. I just remember him trying to keep him. Thanks
VTMONEY94 03/30/24 08:48 AM ET
We all grossly misread KB. **

Not all. :)**
NokieHokie 03/30/24 08:55 AM ET
Did you suspect he was out the door? Now that I rewatched some interviews
pokiehokie83 03/30/24 09:05 AM ET
Yes. It made all the sense in the world to me.
NokieHokie 03/30/24 09:07 AM ET
Was at an event in Roanoke a couple of days ago

It wasn't directed at you, it was a broad statement. Posters sounded like

Nope. But I don't talk about VT athletics in person.**
NokieHokie 03/30/24 09:15 AM ET

drc1956 03/30/24 10:03 AM ET
No. There is very little cursing on here. There is some backbiting. :)**
