# | Reports Point to Mike Young as Next Virginia Tech Men's Basketball Coach Gotta laugh at those that are ready to burn the place down over this hire. The Buzz hire was a shock, and honestly, was out of our league. He took a basement dwelling ACC team, and turned us into a flash in the pan competitor. We have no established history of success, the main guys who led us to that success are all gone next year.
Whoever we hired was likely to have a rough next 2 or so seasons, restocking the cupboards. Give the dude a shot.

# | Kumah enters transfer portal and confirms Wiggins leaving also. He wont have to sit next year?
And now that this report has emerged, he will notify VT that he is no longer a candidate
If by "never played again", you mean played professionally in europe, then yes, you're right...Barksdale never played again.

# | False Reports: Ryan Odom to Be Announced as New Virginia Tech Men's Basketball Coach I think Buzz's success has made us a little unrealistic about where our program is as well.

# | False Reports: Ryan Odom to Be Announced as New Virginia Tech Men's Basketball Coach I think everyone was maybe expecting more because of the homerun surprise hire of Buzz. The chances of Whit making another Buzz like hire was slim. Give the dude a chance... anyone was going to be a downgrade from Buzz, but maybe he'll surprise us
I'll bet James Johnson is available
My only doubt with this Willard thing, Whit said "Anything that's leaked out there has a motive."....so obviously we're hiring someone that has not been linked to the job yet.
Calipari to VT, book it!
If it ends up being Willard, Whit is obviously aware of the whole FBI thing...you'd have to think for Whit to even entertain hiring him, he would have to be 100% certain that nothing could come back to bite him.
I'm good with it
Pretty much, in terms of importance of a coaching hire, it's gonna be between football and basketball.
I'll just say, I agree with you, I enjoy more than just the two big ones, but in terms of importance to the school, none of the other outweigh, or come close to outweighing football and basketball
All but the last guy, never heard of him...what kinda name is Buzz?
My guess is they're all gone, just a hunch though
That kind of illustrates my point...in general, people don't care about softball
dammit. one more year of those two
Agreed 100%. And the NCAA has nothing to do with that, that's an NBA ruling.
If a kid is talented enough, and has the body to endure playing with grown men, let him go make his money. If he isn't there yet, he can:
1) Play college ball, abide by the rules, maybe make it to the NBA
2) Go play overseas, get paid, maybe make it to the NBA one day
3) Play in the G league for table scraps, maybe make it to the NBA one day
Yep, softball has really put VT athletics on the map
Okay, let's do away with scholarships and pay the players instead. As Louisville's AD how much are you paying Jamie Vasilous, the sophomore setter on the women's volleyball team?
or Jack Fasteen, freshman midfielder, for mens soccer?
Don't know if this article has been posted or not, but a nice glimpse into Wofford and Young. I like this hire more and more. My only question, is he bringing the bus driver with him?
