BTW, forget the rankings. He is stiffer than a middle schooler watching his first Riley Ried movie.

I will keep saying it. If VT relies on VHSL footprint to turn this around, they are going to suck forever. Virginia HS kids are poorly coached, and the recruiting services haven't figured it out yet.

Trying to figure out what I said that deserves downvotes other that being optimistic.

I saw someone post that on Facebook...my first thought was he would lose his sh*t two days into dealing with NIL now. He used it to his advantage early on but has been in the news more since being fired advocating for all kinds of restrictions and controls on it so not sure now is the right time for a move like that.

He's still raking in the comments from ATM so I didn't feel the need to contribute

Well said. To quote our beloved athletic director... "our resources don't match our expectations". If we make a budget hire, we should expect budget results. Fingers crossed that this pending athletics overhaul includes championship-level football investment.

Not a single comment for jimbo fisher????????????????????????????????????

Anyone but John Ballein. Please god, do not let him wiggle his way somehow into the decision making process yet again.

He was also almost fired before he won the natty too I believe. Also, probably had one of the best offenses of all time in college football that made winning it pretty easy. On top of you don't really have to recruit at all in Louisiana as LSU. The players practically commit when they get their birth certificates.

A large international consulting firm just went thru a round of selecting who would be elevated to senior manager. ALL of the candidates they considered were already performing successfully at the level they were being interviewed for.

VT needs to stop thinking small. If we have the budget, only consider candidates that are already successful in the current environment. No more, I think he can do it at a higher level, or we can develop him.

Not sure if anyone else already posted this, but VT is catching Premier League strays. Open the image in the tweet to see...

Probably not.

Seems like BOV wants to keep him on in Advisor role for now.

Gives him time to try and find a landing spot and to continue to likely negotiate his buyout.

Expect more along the lines of pep-talk about Montgomery and "new direction" of Program.

Also puts him in front of media instead of Sands.

This is essentially what I meant when I said we need a proven coach, no more experiments. You elaborated more and put it better than I did

someone who almost certainly would be successful at VT

This is impossible to measure until they succeed or fail at VT. The perfect hire can end up a bust. An unexpected hire could have humongous success.

Curious who the selection committee will entail. I know we have tossed out a few Hokie-centric names to be involved like Arians and Jeff King but who outside our circle would you seek to have involved? I know there was a joke about pursuing Saban for Coach but would it hurt to seek him participating on the selection committee? If you were King for a Day who would you want helping with the process?
