# | Hokies Wrestling: Big Weekend in Blacksburg #13 UNC 8pm Friday and #3 Oklahoma St 2pm Sunday Yupp they came in with a really conservative strategy. Made the mat small and didn't take many shots.

# | Hokies Wrestling: Big Weekend in Blacksburg #13 UNC 8pm Friday and #3 Oklahoma St 2pm Sunday We are not that far from them. A tad over aggressive by a few and AS got out of position just for a second and it cost him.
Nothing but upside from this match.
That was exciting and fun.
OSU is very good at stalking and counter attacking
Very few actual attacks by them.
We will be fine.
Let's go!

# | Hokies Wrestling: Big Weekend in Blacksburg #13 UNC 8pm Friday and #3 Oklahoma St 2pm Sunday Yeah Mullen knew he needed a Tech Fall or Pin for Hokies to win so was taking more risks, unfortunately he struggles to finish against the bigger opponents.

# | Hokies Wrestling: Big Weekend in Blacksburg #13 UNC 8pm Friday and #3 Oklahoma St 2pm Sunday Pretty common back point position called a Peterson. You can have control and have your back on your opponent when you have a leg and arm, it was well timed by the okie state guy and a bit careless by Mullen being overly aggressive. .

# | Hokies Wrestling: Big Weekend in Blacksburg #13 UNC 8pm Friday and #3 Oklahoma St 2pm Sunday Controlled both ankles and rolled Jimmy on back. It wasnt until Jimmy broke his hold from behind that the points happened. Mullen struggles to finish shots against bulkier heavyweights unfortunately.

# | Hokies Wrestling: Big Weekend in Blacksburg #13 UNC 8pm Friday and #3 Oklahoma St 2pm Sunday Eh Seidels style of wrestling is going to put him in spots like that I'm more frustrated about the Miller match.

# | Hokies Wrestling: Big Weekend in Blacksburg #13 UNC 8pm Friday and #3 Oklahoma St 2pm Sunday All up to Mullen. Their heavyweight even favored may just try to stall away this match.
The Miller Bullshit stall calls going to cost us the upset most likely

# | Hokie Hoops Central: Florida State (11-13) at Virginia Tech (17-8) 2pm ACCN OK terrible loss.
That said, Virginia Tech this year is thought to be 14th in the ACC in NIL. Operating budget is thought to be 11-15 in ACC. Facilities by poll of coaches are thought to be bottom 3rd and probably only that high because Cassell is tough to play in.
Barring a major infusion across at least NIL/Operating budget we wont get a top candidate or top assistants AND top players. We are talking a $12-$15M annually if we want to compete at the top.
Young has 3 assistants. Nine ACC programs have the full complement of 5 assistants. Top 4 teams (Duke, UNC, Louisville, and Miami) are thought to have between 5-10 personnel in their recruiting offices, UVA next year will join them if I understand some things Odom has said. Young has two, maybe three people for recruiting.
NIL kind of speaks for itself, as mentioned above, top programs are thought to be in the $10M. We aren't close.

# | Hokies Wrestling: Big Weekend in Blacksburg #13 UNC 8pm Friday and #3 Oklahoma St 2pm Sunday Lockett's style of wrestling is essentially the same as pulling guard and butt scooting man that was boring.
The candidate pool we're looking at isn't all that good imo to guarantee a replacement that would be better than Mike Young if the funds aren't there because a lot of good candidates got hired up the last previous two years. So the candidates out there right now (like Tony Skinn) are going to be in high demand and I can guarantee our current level of spending for basketball won't get candidates like that. I'm going off memory from this past summer/early fall, but we're at like what, between 4 to 6 mil for roster salary (which was tripled from the previous year which was pathetic). That sounds good, but the blue bloods are 10 mil+. We need to be around 8 mil to field tournament quality teams most years. If the package doesn't include that, on top of coaching salary, most candidates aren't going to look our way. You're looking a multiple time retreads or taking a chance on a young guy from a school you never even heard of after 1 good season with what we have to offer.
I don't think we can afford to fire him with the money he's owed, but it would help if he would retire. But even then, without an increase in funds, we're in a limited spot. We're not too terribly off funding wise so theoretically the Athletic Department might be able to steer a couple extra mil into MBB with all the cash being infused, but I wouldn't bank on it. I'm still not convinced its fully there for football considering a good chunk of it is banking on donations that may or may not materialize. I think the most likely result is Mike Young stays for another year. The second most likely is Mike Young retires and VT goes relatively cheap by promoting Chester Frazier to HC (flashbacks to Greenberg -> James Johnson). I'd be fairly shocked if Mike Young leaves (fired or retired) and we pony up cash for a splash or even respectable hire
