Va Tech to Hire GM first per Bruce Arians

[Hoyacane1620]

They should have fired their AD years ago.

Still not a great look to do Bruce Smith like that. The best player in the history of their program.

Imagine the outrage here if someone came out publicly and said "We need a GM first" when Ed Reed was actively our "GM". Our fanbase would riot.

who knows, maybe he will ultimately remain the GM.

 

[Hoyacane1620]

So they want a HC that’s ok with not having full control of the program? All while not having shot for NIL? Yea good luck.

Isn't this what Stanford just did?

I'm sure he won't. It was just one of Pry's gimmicks like Ed was for UM anyway. He's right, they need a real GM

Just should have been handled differently from the guy on their committee making public comments.

I think all of this **** is a joke.I’m starting to hate college ball much like I hate the NFL. I don’t want 20 good teams and 110 bad ones.

Don't we kinda have now, maybe, 5-8 "good" times and the rest are cannon fodder (wrt to Natty hopes)?

do we have a gm?

I have no idea but it wouldn’t surprise me. All these P4 schools who are terrible are trying everything to get good, except hire a good HC. It’s mind blowing.

That's where we are. I heard some mid Ameruca guy---w michigan maybe----- say he just understands that every year his top 5-6 guys he developed at headed out the door. Talent gets concentrated up the line.

I heard that their “huge” commitment still does put them in the top third of spending among ACC teams

 

[Canes Legacy]

The ACC will be dead in a few years, let them rot.

Not sure it will be dead BUT it will be a group of schools that have little hope of winning it all. God I hope we get to look down on them and laugh at their stupid refs and scheduling people,
