So we didn't compete? **
VAHokie89 • 03/26/25 07:14 AM ET
There is no level playing field in any sport
VTCALS72 • 03/25/25 10:08 PM ET

OGHookie • 03/25/25 06:39 PM ET
EXACTLY! and we could see it coming🙁**
TomA • 03/26/25 05:34 PM ET
If your sole goal is NC, you are correct
Baltimore Hokie • 03/25/25 04:45 PM ET
Kind of depressing VT will very likely never win a natty ever though**
MExpos27 • 03/26/25 03:34 AM ET
We're not going to make the jump to finish top 4 if we can't get recruits

Wilmington Hokie • 03/26/25 03:02 PM ET
We have some great recruits coming in this fall.**
MC4VT • 03/26/25 07:39 AM ET
Our '25 class is great and thankfully Burton turned down a bag

Now that big money is into wrestling, this will be the end of my interest
AirborneHokie96 • 03/25/25 04:34 PM ET
lol It’s not always about money
Stewcrew6 • 03/26/25 10:58 AM ET
In this case it was. Nothing has changed with respect to the rosters

I don't disagree with anything here but this situation is tough

Messaging to who?
SCA Hokie • 03/26/25 12:03 PM ET
I don't disagree and you don't see me himming and hawing on the board here
HokieToph • 03/26/25 12:10 PM ET
He did make it know
Stewcrew6 • 03/26/25 01:47 PM ET
I heard the same too.
Nafeikoh • 03/26/25 03:47 PM ET
But it's money that allows them to bring in Olympic training partners
AirborneHokie96 • 03/26/25 11:42 AM ET
I agree on that
Stewcrew6 • 03/26/25 01:45 PM ET
This is a really good point

Nafeikoh • 03/25/25 10:46 PM ET
That is the sad part. He obviously liked it more in Blacksburg, but the

What college sport has a level playing field?
HokieJack • 03/25/25 03:56 PM ET
