I mean he was a hell of a coach his only deficiencies were pretty basic SEC violations and paying players which was working and is legal now.
So really presumptuous premature question, if Montgomery manages to win 4 more with our current hot mess. Does he get an interview or the job?
So is Florida hiring Freeze or Briles?

# | VT BoV Approves increase of athletics budget by $47.1m this year, growing to a total budget of $212m in 2029 I suppose you'll be able to decide based on your excitement for the new coach and coaching staff.

He's not really been doing so well as of late.
I thought this was the link to use. That's what I used a lot in the Iditarod thread. Got it from this comment containing instructions, and bookemarked them both.

# | VT BoV Approves increase of athletics budget by $47.1m this year, growing to a total budget of $212m in 2029 I'd love to know what that 2020 plan would have been and why it never came about. If it was solid, I'd also be curious to know what they're doing to make sure they never miss that boat again.
I know we're not in an ideal state now, but if we take what we've learned and don't make those same mistakes again and strive for continuous incremental improvement, we will be better off for it. I feel like we've been spinning our tires for a while the goal should be to never allow ourselves to fall into that rut again.

# | VT BoV Approves increase of athletics budget by $47.1m this year, growing to a total budget of $212m in 2029 That's something I'd like to follow up on after the plan passes; likely folks aren't going to be very forthcoming with specifics until this is a done deal. I will share (and I'm not sure I posted this anywhere else yet) that President Sands made an offhand remark during one of our chats that "we had a pretty solid plan back in 2020" but that it somehow didn't come to fruition. I don't know if that was related to the pandemic impacts, something to do with coaching (awkward "we're not firing him" press conference) or what. It's something I'll dig into because I'm quite curious, myself.

# | VT BoV Approves increase of athletics budget by $47.1m this year, growing to a total budget of $212m in 2029 Has there been any indication to you about how long this might have been in the works, then? Everybody is screaming, "IT'S ABOUT TIME!", but is it possible that Whit has been banging his head against the wall for years trying to get the BoV to understand?
I'll admit, it is a huge ask for a university to just up and increase athletics funding by that much.

# | VT BoV Approves increase of athletics budget by $47.1m this year, growing to a total budget of $212m in 2029 Yeah-been in data management/data governance for the last 14 or so years of my 32 years with the large bank I work for. Think I'm technically a 'certified data steward'...(which tracks cause I've often been told I'm 'certifiable' lmao...)
I was solidly for, and probably gave you some heat. In retrospect he was good at the Cajuns because of his ability to get players significantly better than the rest of the conference...I don't know that he's going to have that crutch anywhere in the P4
Any idea what happened to him there? It seemed like Oklahoma State had done about as well as any non-P2 team could do for a long time. And Gundy had a very solid record until last year. Then everything fell apart. Did he just lose interest and mentally quit? Just feels so odd for things to crater that badly after from 2006-2023, an 18 year run, having:
0 losing records
8 10+ win seasons
10.5 times ranked (one year ranked in 1 poll but not the other)
12 bowl wins
To then totally tank to 4-11 in the last 1 1/4 seasons
I mean, I would love for VT to have the run he had at Oklahoma State https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Gundy
Bruce Pearl rides the line between "morally flexible" and "morally bankrupt"
Yeah people talk shit on Freeze, he's infinitely better than Briles. Freeze is just a cheating hypocrite that doesn't know when to shut up.
At the time I would have been content with Napier but really after Fuente was a slam dunk hire I just dont see why i should get excited for a new coach.
I was against Bowen as an OC, Marve I wrote off as Pry's protégé a la Bud to Frank, but a really green OC too.
The Mullet Succession , coming to bookstores everywhere fall 2026
I could see Jamey Chadwell there
Yes. 4 wins would be incredible this year.
