Timing and plan like this is definitely plausible to mimic at VT. The one benefit GT has though is from a social life stand point I think downtown ATL is pretty good sell for young recruits with lots of new disposable income.

Yes, pan-fried spot is tasty, especially breaded in cornmeal or something else with a little texture to it. I suppose you could so something with it on a wood plank too, but I've never tried it myself.

I'm okay with this timeline. Fire Pry and Babcock, make Price the interim coach again, hire a damn good AD (with a vision for revamping the Hokie Club and increasing donations), and figure out the head coach position (and throw money at coordinators) by the 4th quarter of the UVA game. We know Price won't lose to the Hoos.

Big reds, especially at citation size, aren't considered good to eat. Personally, I won't keep them over 22" to eat, and even then will soak them in buttermilk overnight before cooking. I do like them a lot, but this year haven't caught one bigger than 16", and only two of them.
Either way, citation fish are the ones you want in the system for breeding purposes, so releasing them is strongly encouraged by almost all concerned anyway.

I don't even care if the next coach we get uses us as a stepping stone for a bigger school. I just want us to win games and be positively relevant again. Just give me a winner

While the drum were released... the spots I was catching at Buckroe are good to eat. Sadly, I am not a good cook so I used them as bait, but I bet others will share the best way to cook them. I am assuming folks butterfly and then fry them. Too small to filet. But, I may be wrong.

I think Dan Mullen could make some sense for us if we time it right and get moving on it sooner rather than later. He's already had an elite job at UF so he's not going to be looking to just jump for a big payday at this stage in his career. He's been interested in VT before and I think with a new AD and assurances of more funding, we could be an attractive destination for him with some job security and significantly more than he's making at UNLV.
