Not exactly the same, but Robie left a head coaching job to come here…

and Tech was not the national power that ii is now when he left Binghamton to join Dresser. By the way, always thought it was a fun fact that Pat Pop succeeded Robie at Binghamton. Anyway, agree it is unusual to leave a head coaching job for an assistant one - especially here where Tanelli also has Frayer ahead of him - but really speaks well for how the program.

Can't say I understand the move on his part
Hikinghokie • 04/21/24 01:17 PM ET
How about this, VT has a fantastic program!
HOKIE MAGIC • 04/21/24 09:47 PM ET
For sure
Hikinghokie • 04/21/24 10:09 PM ET
I can't imagine we will be able to retain both Frayer and Tanelli long term
VPIGUY • 04/22/24 10:58 AM ET
VT has a great reputation in the wrestling community as well.
HOKIE MAGIC • 04/21/24 10:14 PM ET
Might not want to be associated
GCHokieof91 • 04/21/24 06:57 PM ET
Obvious reasons? What would those be that most universities currently don't

He may not want to raise kids in NYC or its suburbs
UpperQuad • 04/21/24 03:40 PM ET
Also, we don't know wwhat he was being paid vs. his cost of living
UpperQuad • 04/21/24 10:27 PM ET
Tanelli lives in Hoboken, NJ**
HokieToph • 04/22/24 01:29 PM ET
Especially if he fits with the values of Robie's culture & program
Palmetto Hokie • 04/21/24 09:44 PM ET
The Athletic area is away from Campus and not in the best part of town

Completely incorrect (details inside)

Pathetically childish post.**
ancient alien 2018 • 04/22/24 01:26 AM ET
A little puzzling, but let's hope it is not a precursor
Hokie Flyer • 04/21/24 01:26 PM ET
Even if Robie was planning to retire
Hikinghokie • 04/21/24 01:35 PM ET
Coleman Scott moved from HC at UNC to assistant at OK state…
VPIGUY • 04/22/24 07:19 AM ET
I'd expect Coleman Scott is Ok State's HC as soon as next year
