# | Dadi Nicolas, Hokies' Coaching Staff Reflect on the Past, Prepare for the Future 
I love David Wilson more than most things in life. Thanks for passing this along.
So after he wins Gold, can he come back and be a RB coach for us? Or strength and conditioning guy?

# | Adam Rittenberg saying VT likely to be first school to "fill its vacancy" That was internal elevation of interim coach to full coach. At this time we could go internal or external, hence why we will be the first to announce a new coach.
oh yeah there were all kinds of puns in this post...that wasn't the only one

# | Adam Rittenberg saying VT likely to be first school to "fill its vacancy" Thus they don't have a vacancy to fill.
But in seriousness, I think it's very different when you name an interim head coach and then give him the job a short time later. There probably wasn't even much of a coaching search.
40 lb. Nice.
I think Whit also knows the work needed in keeping stability and limiting the impact a coaching search has on recruiting. I think the name will be revealed 3 days after the UVA game officially for recruiting purposes and keep the attention on Frank as long as possible. Mid week announcement mean two days for media coverage then sink into the backpage articles and to fan sites after the weekend.
Still confused. If it is true that Sweat was looking for the head coach at VT to match the intensity of the head coach at Florida State, which I doubt by the way, how could Bud do anything about that as a coordinator.
Oh come on, the statistics on our explosive drives given up are middle of the road (as shown above), not "leading the country."

# | Adam Rittenberg saying VT likely to be first school to "fill its vacancy" Told you guys before, Whit signed Richard Campbell last Friday.
The Hokies have had some frustrating performances this year, but they've actually had a solid defensive season (good enough for No. 22 in the nation in total defense).
For the non-Bud for HC crew, make sure you read that. Our defense has gotten a LOT better as the season has progressed. Bud has been doing what he does again this year with success considering the circumstances. Impressive AGAIN!
Those two guys have been together for most of Bud's adult life, and Beamer has watched him grow into the tremendous defensive coordinator he is today. They've stood next to each other during every single moment of Hokie football over the last 20 years
Bud for HC!! Torian for DC!! Consistency maintained for defense, a continuing improved offense for next year, and we retain most of our 2016 recruiting class and send a huge message to the nation and the ACC for the future: VT is building ("We'll get after ya!") with a continued solid foundation.
I hope it's a sign that we're going to run the football....a lot.
Is there any benefit in announcing this before the UVA game though? Depending on when they announce it that could also eliminate some coaches that would have games on championship weekend.

# | Adam Rittenberg saying VT likely to be first school to "fill its vacancy" Worth noting that Arizona's regular season is over after this weekend....
Excites me because we are not in wait and see mode.
Not that I thought Whit would put us in that equation, but would have been interesting if USCw took Sumlin or someone at a school who then had the power to try to take some of our top targets.
This way - We get our guy!
It's probably not who is being talked about.
And when it leaks, it will likely leak from the coaches previous school side.

# | Adam Rittenberg saying VT likely to be first school to "fill its vacancy" Yup... its a done deal
now we just have to wait and see who it is
It's not really going to sink in for me until I see some other coach on the sideline during a game.
I couldn't agree more. Sitting here with a smile on my face, reading these articles and anecdotes while at lunch, thinking about the trip to Blacksburg this weekend for Beamer's last home game. Amazing.
